New fab fantasies

Just to share: Today I discovered two compelling fantasy books live on Kickstarter. These look to me to be not-to-miss stories. I backed one of them myself. Take a look. By the way, you can just grab the ebook on Kickstarter at no additional mark up from mainstream retailers. (Of course you could back more items if so disposed!) A steampunk saga of resistance, rebellion, and revolution. A coming of age dystopian novel in a 980 page special edition. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/......

The Entire and The Rose returns!

Dear subscribers, you're hearing it here first: my celebrated quartet, The Entire and The Rose, will soon be back!


Book 1, Bright of the Sky, has not been generally available for quite a while, but now the series is together again for the first time in years. Expect to see all four books in sparkling new editions as soon as November 1. First in eBook, followed soon by paperback and hardcover.


I'm still clearing the way for the reboot of a series that many of you have been asking for—so the launch may be postponed to November 15—but I'm really Hoping for sooner!


Watch here for my announcement of the launch day!


Though I was unable to retain the original covers, see the beautiful cover concept developed by Deranged Doctor Design!





A tale of high adventure and vast concept, replete with alien cultures, an exotic bureaucracy, and a man with nothing left to lose.


A series that reviewers have compared to Riverworld and Dune and praised as "a grand world," "an enormous stage" and "a bravura concept."


Thank you so much for your interest in my work and for your support. It really helps me keep on keeping on. Talk soon!
