October 2025

 Month 10 of 12, 2025 is on the way out...but fuck did it feel like 4 years not one and it's not over yet. Really hope you're all doing good.

Let's tackle the big news for the month first.
Aether's Revival 11: Princely Mistakes is out as of this going live.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FQFNG3Q5
There you go for the link if you didn't preorder it already.
Greg and his wives are dealing with the aftermath of the Buldoun attack Krogga. Lots of things in here with some friendly faces showing up too.
Small spoiler, skip the next bit if you don't want it...This ends the Krogga arc.
Really hope you all enjoy the book.

It'll be recorded this month I believe. Andie either has it slated for later this month or early next. Which means we might see it out on audio before the year ends. I know the audiophiles will enjoy that.

Speaking of audio...If you missed it AL4 is out on audio now...https://www.audible.com/pd/Antecedents-Assembly-Audiobook/B0FN15N87M

Also the preorder for HC3 audio is on preorder too...https://www.audible.com/pd/Heavens-Reflected-Audiobook/B0FSG4T95H. The good news here is it drops on the 28th of October.

That's kind of it for Audio news right now. Podium has AL5 and that's all I can say about it currently.
Once they update me, I can update you via social media. I'll also tell you here, but we know it's not going to be before October ends.

Where does that leave book news? Next book to be published is HC4 on December 1st.
It's with the editing team currently and it will cover the end of the academy arc for Benedict, Sadie, and Atropos. It has a lot of moving parts, but I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

That means I'm currently writing AL6. Zande and crew are always a lot of fun to write.
When I finish that I'll be going back to Greg and family again. 

This is where I'll slowly start to see if a 3-series rotation is going to work for me or not.
Has there been enough time between the series for me to have that same itch to dig into things again or not? I'll find out in 2026 as that'll be the first real tell for me. It was always going to take a couple of cycles for me to tell and that meant more than 1 year.

I'll let you know once I can say one way or the other.

In related book news two things:
The Kickstarter ended. 371 people raised $63k, before expenses for everything to be made. That is a lot of love and support for AR, my deepest thanks for making the first Kickstarter a wild success. It funded the $10 goal in 7 minutes! I was blown away by the support. Now Jenn will be hard at work getting everything lined up and things moving. Payments are being processed and once the money hits the account it'll begin to be spent to get your rewards made. She's hopeful for a May2026 fulfillment date, and I believe her because she been on point this entire time.
The other news is my 9-year published anniversary is October 3rd. That's right published for 9-years. Damn! What a ride! All because you crazy people enjoy my stories. The giveaway is open for another couple of days on Facebook and Discord. If you want a challenge coin or to be one of the lucky 2 who get red shirted, you need to go join the contests.

That's it for October news. I do want to mention I'll be at Reader Nation November 7th in Vegas.
Not sure what I'll have with me to hand out, but I'll be there.
So if you're in Vegas on that day and want to stop in and see me, well I'll be in public to make that happen.


Okay that's it.
Until next month, stay safe out there.
