Important news about A KNIFE OF OBLIVION!

Dear readers,

So, I have good news and I have bad news.

The bad news is that I had to cancel the pre-order for A Knife of Oblivion. I made a mistake on the final file and it couldn't be corrected before the book released on 04/17/19 because the book was locked for upload already and past the deadline for change. So, if you pre-ordered the book, you will probably receive an email informing you that the book has been canceled (and just so you know, you weren't charged any money for that pre-order).

So the pre-order had to be canceled. But, don't panic! Here's the good news! I have re-uploaded the book for immediate release after correcting the file issue, so the book is out now!!

You can buy or read it with Kindle Unlimited right now by clicking here!

Brace yourselves for book 7 in the beloved Kingmakers' War series!

In the north, Briand struggles to hold her ground as thief-queen against slavers and other threats in the wretched city of Gillspin. Meanwhile, her reputation grows as more and more misfits and orphans flock to join her alter ego, the Scarlet Blade.

Kael of Estria, Monarchist spy and now the captain of Prince Jehn's royal guard, must rescue the Monarchist refugees from Cahan's army.

Prince Jehn is locked in a battle of wits with the queen of Nyr, his wife in name only, whom he is secretly in love with. The queen, sometimes an ally and sometimes an enemy with her own agenda, has secrets that Jehn cannot decipher. As they battle for dominance in the Nyrian court, the consequences might prove deadly.

Loyalties will be tested. Love will be questioned. Secrets will be revealed. Hearts will be broken.

A COURT OF LIES is available!!

Hi everyone!

I haven't said much about the upcoming Kingmakers' War book A Court of Lies, mostly because I've been working my butt off to get it written and revised and into your waiting hands. With two tiny children and a mountain of normal life things demanding constant attention, this is no easy feat, hence the wait that you've all been so patient about, but...

Now it's here!

...and all the other zons!

I hope you guys enjoy the book. :D

BTW, I've been getting lots of questions about whether or not this is the last book in the Kingmakers' War series, so I'll try to write a post soon with my plans for the series and subsequent books. But, to answer that question now, nope, it isn't the last! I want this to be a long series. I really enjoy writing it, and I think a lot of people enjoy reading it as well. I already have the cover and title of the next book, and a rough (very rough!) outline planned.

Anyway, happy reading, and if you can, please leave a review on Amazon or Goodreads and tell me what you liked in a non-spoilery way. I love reading what you have to say!

Book 6 in the Kingmakers' War series is....!

Hi all!

Good news. I have a title, a cover, and a (sort of) release timetable for you.

Book #6 in the Kingmakers' War, the saga of Kael and Briand and Jehn and all of the rest of our lovely group of misfits, is almost here!

A Court of Lies!

I think I said somewhere awhile ago that it would be called A Court of Rags, which 1) didn't end up quite fitting the symbolism of the story and 2) I forgot when I coined that title that I have a character in the series named Rags. So. Lies it is.

Lots of people do some lying in this book. As in all Kingmakers' War books. :)

The book is with my editor now, and after a few rounds of revisions, I'm going to release it. I'm trying this without preorders this time, and I'll probably do it the other way next time. Just getting a feel for what works best for me and for readers. But look for it around the end of June! I will, of course, send out news of the release on my New Releases Newsletter, Facebook, and this blog. So be sure to check!

Want To Have A SHIELD OF SORROW Dedicated to YOU?

Hi guys!

This is suuuuuper last minute, but I decided, what the heck, let's dedicate A Shield of Sorrow to one lucky reader. I've written 25 books... everybody in my family and friends circle that deserves a dedication has already gotten one, and it's usually one of the last things I do. The book comes out April 5, so this is a super-short contest. Good luck!

A CIRCLE OF FLAMES is here!

Hi everyone!

Just wanted to let you know that A Circle of Flames (the Kingmakers' War #4) is finally available in the Amazon store!

You can grab a copy here: A Circle of Flames (The Kingmakers' War Book 4)

And the title (and cover!) of the Kingmakers' War book #4 is...

Hi everyone!

Lots of news today.

First things first. I have slightly reworked the covers of the Kingmakers' War series. And I love them! I kept the same images but went with a "swashier" font, which is what I wanted originally. I enjoy tweaking my covers when I have multiple books to play with--it gives me the ability to built a cohesion among the covers that I can only guess at when designing the first book in the series (since the covers are somewhat informed by their contents).

So, first... the new covers!

And now, the new title and cover of book #4!

Second piece of news! A Circle of Flames is coming out THIS MONTH! :) :) :) I told you guys you wouldn't have to wait as long this time.

Stay tuned for a summary and, of course, for the book release itself!
