This April, Ernst J. Dabel will release his new novel, Albino—a self-published YA ebook with distribution through Sea Lion Books. To help promote Albino, Ernst J. Dabel himself had a few things to say about his new book:

Well one of the topics that came up was by my brother Les, who’s now my agent. He said to us that he knew something that he felt had never been written before.

Their weapons would be made of wood, bone and other natural things but not metal.
