Independent Publisher Book Awards

We also received word that Martin Etchart’s book The Last Shepherd was awarded a gold medal in the Multicultural Fiction Adult category at the Independent Publisher Book Awards. In the author’s words, “The Last Shepherd is the story of a young man’s search for an identity that encompasses two very different cultures and one complex, scattered family.” The awards ceremony took place today, May 29th in New York, on the eve of the BookExpo America convention. The book was published by the University of Nevada Press and is available for purchase through their website: https://www.unpress.nevada.edu/Browse/Titles/The Last Shepherd;2249;1475. For more information on other awards and categories. Zorionak Marty!
