Hespira: A Tale of Henghis Hapthorn, the third novel in the Hapthorn trilogy, is now available as a POD paperback.

Here's the blurb:

Hapthorn decides to leave Old Earth, seeking to solve the mystery of Hespira, an ungainly off-world woman who has lost her memory. The investigation takes him down The Spray to the rank-obsessed world of Ikkibal and the rustic Shannery, where he unravels Hespira's role in a deadly feud between aristocrats. But behind the scenes an unseen antagonist is plotting the discriminator's destruction.

At the moment, the paperback is only available in Amazon's CreateSpace estore, but in a week or so it will work its way through into the whole Amazon system. And at some point, probably weeks from now, you could actually walk into a bricks-and-mortar bookstore and order a copy.

I'd prefer it, though, if you bought it from CreateSpace, since they pay a far better royalty than I would receive after everybody else has taken a cut.

I want to thank my excellent book designer, Bradley W. Schenck, Hero of the Archonate, for producing such a fine piece of work.
