Thank you so much, that's very kind of you. Have a great day!

Hi Lukas,
The paperback versions are published directly through Amazon and Amazon currently handles the distribution. There are also hardcovers published through Wraithmarked for some of the other books, but I'm not sure if those have shipping to Switzerland or not.
I'm currently looking into finding ways to broaden distribution, but for the moment, your best options might be the Kindle or audio book versions. I hope you're able to find a store that carries it, but I don't think it's likely.

Working on it! Just waiting for the graphic design for the cover to be finished. Sorry, no ETA -- my graphic designer has a full-time job and is doing me a favor by working on this whenever he can find the spare time.

Book 7 is will be the end of Arcane Ascension itself, but there will be more books in the same setting in the future.

(view spoiler)[I know that This isn't a question , but seeing that since karas it would be really cool if you tied him in to the six secret swords series. ? (hide spoiler)]
Andrew Rowe
Not quite sure what you're saying here, sorry! Looks like part of the message might have gotten lost. But Keras is in most of my books, including Six Sacred Swords, and I hope to have more books with him soon!

Audible handles that whole system, but I'm not aware of any reason why credits would not be usable.
Andrew Rowe
That sounds like an error in how Kindle is presenting it to you.
It's probably a result of the fact that the Kindle version is already out, but Audible isn't.
So, for clarity, it's out on Kindle, but audio is out on the 8th as Audible says.

I had a pretty unusual experience with school. I had a sleep disorder growing up, which made it very difficult to handle early morning classes. I was very lucky to have support from my parents, and I tested out of high school at a young age to go to college early. Once I was in college and could pick my own hours and classes, I had a much better time.
Andrew Rowe
I don't have a solid date for audio yet, but it's usually around 6 months.
Andrew Rowe
Good questions.
1. I haven't made a firm decision on a perspective for any WoBM sequels yet. There's a good chance I'll do a mixture between a frame story and a main story with different perspectives, but we'll see.
2. Salaris was his earliest name and the one I identify with the most for the character, but I think Keras sounds better aloud, and I tend to use it more often.

I'm not looking for more beta readers right now, but thank you for asking!

(view spoiler)[Did Hugh Stormward just make an appearance in AA4? (hide spoiler)]
Andrew Rowe
Sure did. =) I have cameos in several books. They're not canonically set in the same universe or anything, it's just a cameo.
Andrew Rowe
I'm not sure what you mean by "ideas". If you mean recommendations for existing books, I'd recommend John Bierce's books, Tobias Begley's books, Will Wight's books, and Sarah Lin's books.

Likely around July for Kindle and somewhere around the end of the year for audible.
This question contains spoilers...
(view spoiler)[In the arcane accension books it was indicated that no unrestricted attunements have access to transference and perception, but the wave walker seems to have both. Is it just that the wave walkers cannot access the time domain? (hide spoiler)]
Andrew Rowe
Good question.
The book Corin is reading in AA2 is only going over primary and secondary mana pairings, not tertiary mana types. Perception is a tertiary, only available at Citrine-level and above, and outside the scope of what the book is talking about. So, the book is a little misleading.
That said, even with access to transference and perception at Citrine, the attunement doesn't have the functions necessary to create time mana. (Notably, reaching dominions is another story entirely -- attunements don't work like dominion sorcery. That's talked about more in AA3 and AA4.)

(view spoiler)[I imagine this might be a RAFO question and I totally understand if you can't answer but a friend and I were debating about this so I thought I would just ask. (Spoilers Ahead for AA) Would Corin have been able to change Magnus' attunement to any other attunement, or was he only able to change it to an enchanter attunement because he has spent so much time studying nearly every aspect of it and the sub-glyphs within? (hide spoiler)]
Andrew Rowe
This answer contains spoilers…
(view spoiler)[He could have only changed it to Enchanter or Arbiter. He didn't have time to actually manually change or check everything -- he basically just copied and pasted one of his attunements sub-glyphs and overwrote the originals. This is also why it was so much faster than his tests; he wasn't reading it or checking for errors, just copy/paste. (hide spoiler)]

Aiming for sometime next year. There is no release date yet.
Andrew Rowe
Sorry, they're mostly on Amazon for now, since I'm a primarily an indie author and participate in Kindle Select.
Yes, I have plans for more of Lydia in the future. =)
