- The Bane of Yoto, by Joshua Viola, is a trans-media experience that offers many ways to explore its rich storyline. From paperback or eBook to a free 3D interactive comic mobile app, this attention-grabbing novel was recently released by record label and music publisher FiXT – and promises to transport readers to a sinister world of cosmic drama and action they will never forget!
Formerly a professor of Game Art and Design, and now Art Director for Leviathan Games, Viola’s astounding vision is unmistakable in this perfect blend of science fiction and fantasy that comes together in a breakneck paced, action-packed plot where creatively original characters battle for their very existence in a brutal world.
Drawing rave reviews for its originality and vision, The Bane of Yoto has won awards from both the 2012 New York Book Festival and the 2012 Hollywood Book Festival, and is the first installment in a trilogy of science-fantasy novels by Joshua Viola.
…Some say the Arbitrators existed long before the world was born. Others believe their dark powers spun the fabric of time itself. They are mystery. But this is truth. After ages of formless existence, the Arbitrators craved physicality once more and in their search for a worthy body to inhabit, they destroyed Ajyin – home to the gentle, blue-fleshed Numah and the combative, carapaced Olokun. But not all was lost. General Vega and his vile warriors enslaved the remaining Numah and they relocated to Ajyin’s thriving moon, Neos.
Under the general’s imperious rule, the Numah toiled to extract minerals for a defensive barrier called the Aegis Shield that the general vowed would protect Neos from the Arbitrator’s return. But the Arbitrators’ hunger sparked a great fire – a blaze of revenge and revolution that soon found its home in the heart of a weak and cowardly Numah named Yoto, transforming him into a powerful and dangerous being beyond the general’s control. Will Yoto use his new-found power to free his people – or will he annihilate them? Once again, the Arbitrators’ dark presence haunts the world of Numah and Olokun.
Always looking to break new ground, FiXT (owned by cyber-rocker Klayton of Celldweller), recently entered the book publishing business with The Bane of Yoto. Staying with the book’s theme, Viola has merchandise available ranging from PlayStation 3 Dynamic Themes, Sculptures and T-shirts, to posters and more, that are available through FiXT.
Get the book today through all major online retailers or at the FiXT store: www.fixtstore.com/baneofyoto

My name is Jay Siva, the founder of EZBuyButton.com, an easy 'buy book' widget for authors. I'm contacting you today because I think you and your readers would love to know about the EZBuyButton widget I've created.
It is the most advanced 'buy now' widget for selling books. I make it free for authors and publishers, worldwide, to quickly and easily create and use our EZBuyButton widget to place on their website or blog to immediately increase the sales of their books, especially if their books are listed for sale in more than one retail store. I made it super easy, with just a few clicks they just copy & paste a piece of code onto their website/blog, and they're done.
The widget allows website visitors to select which device they'd like to use to read the author's book, and then select their preferred retail store that they'd like to purchase the book from. It also geolocates the visitor's location and will send the visitor to the correct country specific retail store so that they can buy the author's book. The widget is also fully customizable, and the author will have access to detailed real-time statistics of the use of their widget.
I would like to invite you to visit my website, and try out the EZBuyButton widget. I hope you find that my widget will be useful to you and your readers, including all the authors, literary agents, and publishers you're in contact with.
My website is http://www.ezbuybutton.com.
If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them for you. Thank you for your time.
kindest regards,
Jay Siva

AuthorElaine D Walsh said… Hi Joshua and welcome to book blogs. You have a great personal page. I am a fairly new member as well, but have found the community to be very warm and welcoming. Everyone seems willing to help each other.
I started a new group called Philanthropy 101 - It is a group for bloggers, authors, readers, and reviewers who contribute to charity or who are giving back in some way to make our communities better. If you are making a difference or have ideas that can help others make a difference, please stop by and share. Since the group is just getting started, we could use all the help we can get. http://bookblogs.ning.com/group/philanthropy-101
I just released my debut novel, Atomic Summer - THREE friends, TWO secrets, ONE lie, and the summer that changed their lives. While the book doesn’t deal with cancer issues, I am donating 100% of my royalties to cancer causes. I didn’t write the book to make money, I wrote it to ‘be read’. So I am giving back to make a difference. Please let me know if I can help you navigate around here and if you would like to connect on facebook (www.facebook.com/ElaineDWalsh ) or twitter (https://twitter.com/ElaineDWalsh) I would be happy to do so. If addition, if you know anyone who likes YA, women’s fiction, or historical fiction, could you pass my book along. www.elainedwalsh.com/atomic-summer
