August Update
Greetings, everyone.
It’s almost time for a new Voided Man tale - The Signal and the Ribbon comes out on Sunday. This will be book 10, which seems wild to me, because when I was writing the original I didn’t know it would be a series at all.
Persius narrates the new story, and we learn a great deal about the mild-mannered genius. The Good King Johns – both the biological and the virtual version – also feature in the new book.
I like the villain this time. His name is Erom, and he’s managed to get himself from one of the early galaxies that formed in the aftermath of the Big Bang to the present. If you liked the concept of Prisoner Number One crossing hundreds of millions of years in cryosleep, you’ll like the entirely different method by which Erom crosses ten billion years.
I’m going to be slowing down the rate of new releases for a bit. I’ve been blasting out books every seven or eight weeks, and that just isn’t sustainable. I’m going to switch to a cycle of about twelve weeks, and that should get my work/life balance back into balance.
So, Book 10 will be out this weekend. Book 11 (The Prodigal Rogue) with Lord Jeffrey as narrator will come out a couple of weeks before Thanksgiving, and that one will be available for pre-order as soon as Book 10 launches.
Thank you for taking an interest in my writing.
