The two series are quite a bit different.

The Relics of War (which starts with The Moon's Eye) is more of a "classic" fantasy in terms of style, though with some unique peoples like the Scorpion Men. It has multiple POVs and is written in third-person. The Relics of War series is published in its entirety (though I may write more standalones like Serpentus that relate to it later.)

The Caein Legacy (which begins with Exile) has a more modern feel and it's written in first-person with a single POV for the entire series. Currently, only books 1 and 2 are published, though 3 and 4 will release this year (May and November, respectively.) The Caein Legacy is my more popular series.

If you have a preference as to which series you'd prefer, let me know, and I'll have something sent your way later this week.

As far as cover reveals go, I won't have any new artwork to share for a while, though I'm planning to share something from my upcoming space opera around the December/January timeframe. I will do my best to remember your offer for that in the meantime!

Thanks again for your interest in my books!(less)

Exile is coming...

I realize I've been very bad about keeping up with my Goodreads posts, but I am very excited about an upcoming announcement and I wanted to share a few details.

I have a publication date for Exile, which I'll be sharing with my newsletter this month (Jan. 28). If you'd like to keep apprised of what I have going on, the newsletter is hands-down, the best place to do so.

I'll try to remember to post Read more of this blog post »
