Hey everyone, Troyland, the third Valens Heritage book about everyone's favorite goofball is now live on Amazon.

I apologize for the time between this one and Bellicose, but a certain publisher was making what we like to call 'noises' but were really more along the lines of veiled threats that they were going to start pulling accounts on people who write a certain genre.

So I decided to very much take a 'wait and see' attitude, and it appears to have all blown over. So don't blame me, I'm not the guy saying reverse harem is fine, but harem is wrong. Plus I don't write harem, I write Men's Action and Adventure with harem elements.
There is a difference.
So again, sorry it took so long, I hope you enjoy it.

This is number eight and yes, it's Mihalis again:

'Beware of Darkness' Valens Heritage #7 is now live on Amazon!

Apparently I forgot to mention 'Ain't It The Life', which is Valens Heritage #6 that came out in December:

Enjoy!

So the third book following the exploits on Mihalis, everyone's favorite Black Lion is now live on Amazon!

Valens Heritage, #4, Troy is now available on Amazon!

The second book in Valens Heritage, which took a lot longer than I meant to get done, is now out!

Sean (SJ).

This one is about Mihalis' brother. Book three will be about Mihalis and then book 4 will be SJ again. Basically I'm writing two concurrent trilogies about two different characters in the same time and place, to give a fuller feel for the world and the events in it.

First off, I have a kickstarter running that ends in 6 days to fund the creation of the audiobook for Dan's Inferno, book #4
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...

So if you're interested, hit it soonest!

Next, yes, the next book in the Heritage series is WAAAY LATE. First I got Covid (and yes, Ivermectin works). Then I sold a book to Baen (under my other name) and I had to do the edits that the publisher wanted. Also I took my once a year vacation during that. Then I had a short story commitment for an anthology (I feel like John Belusi when he's pleading with his girlfriend in 'Blues Brothers').

So anyway, a LOT of stuff has been going on. -Hopefully- the next book will be finished in the next ten days. I don't think I'll make an October publishing date, unfortunately, but it will definitely be out not long after the end of the month.

Sorry to make you all wait, but well, sometimes life happens!

There's a new Valens Legacy Book. This one signals the start of the next series, Valens Heritage, which will be coming soon!

Hey everyone! Well the Portals of Infinity Kickstarter is down to 8 days, as it ends on May 9th. At this time books 6, 7, 8, and 9, have been funded! Which is great. The next goals of this kickstarter - where the funds will go next as it continues to grow - are the re-recording of books 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1, in order to have them all with the same Voice Artist (Jessica Threet).

Now for those of you who haven't pledged yet, I would like to point out that for a mere $30 you will get Seven, count 'em Seven, audiobooks. You'll get books 3 , 4, and 5 with the current Voice Artist (Dusty) and then you'll get book 6, 7, 8 and 9 as they each come out. If any of the first five are funded to be re-recorded by this kickstarter, you will get each of those as they come out as well.

That's a lot of swag for thirty dollars, right?

I also want to take the time to thank everyone who has already pledged money to this kickstarter. This is my first one that I've ever done, so yes, maybe I undercharged, but the response has been overwhelming and I'm very excited by just how well it has gone. I've been told that in the last week I will see another surge in donations, and I hope that's true, as I would love to be able to have all of the books in this series done with a single Voice Artist, instead of three.

So once again, you have Eight (8) days left to get in on this deal and get at least Seven (7) audiobooks for the low low price of $30 (US).

Thanks all of you!

-John
