Final Delivery!
over 4 years ago – Thu, Jan 16, 2020 at 04:28:09 PM

Hey everyone! Brian here to let you know that fulfillment is mostly finished! Earlier this week I uploaded the MP3 of the Blood Tally audiobook to Backerkit. The download is a two-parter because of Backerkit's file size limitations, but it should be a simple matter to download both files, unzip them, and then combine. I apologize for the complication of it.

The hardcovers arrived on Monday and I spent the last three days signing, packing, and shipping. Media mail delivery takes anywhere from 3-7 days, and international shipments can take up to a month, so please be patient. If packages arrive damaged for any reason, please let me know ASAP so I can send replacements.

As far as the signed bookplates are concerned: if this is one of your rewards and you also got a book, you can find the bookplate itself inside your copy of Uncanny Collateral. The bookplates have a false backing that can be pealed off and stuck to anything you desire. For those of you ONLY receiving a bookplate (and nothing else), I'll put those in the mail this weekend/early next week.

For those of you who are stumbling across this Kickstarter too late, you can head over to my website for the ebook or hardcover, or pre-order on Amazon!

Hardcover Shipping
over 4 years ago – Fri, Jan 03, 2020 at 10:09:28 PM

Hey everyone! Brian here with a quick update on the hardcover for Blood Tally. These were supposed to reach me by December 31st, but haven't actually shipped from the printer yet. I'm trying to figure out a new ETA, but I suspect we'll be 2-3 weeks behind schedule now (a week for them to reach me, then anywhere from 4 to 14 days for them to reach you all via media mail). I plan on updating you as soon as the books arrive, and then shipping them out immediately.

As for the audiobook, Luke let me know that it was finished about a week ago. I'm guessing holiday stuff has caused him to fall a little behind on the delivery. Hope to get this to you guys ASAP.

Per previous posts, if you've had any problems retrieving your ebook please let me know so we can get it sorted.

My apologies for the unforeseen delays.  I hope you're all having a good new year!

Brian's Latest Epic Fantasy is Out!

Hey all! Brian here to let you know that BLOOD OF EMPIRE, the final Powder Mage book, hit the shelves today. You can get it in ebook, hardcover (US), and paperback (UK), with the audiobook coming in March

For those of you who pre-ordered the hardcover through Backerkit, please remember that it won't ship until Blood Tally does later this month. Speaking of Blood Tally - the hardcover proof has been shipped from the printer and should arrive at my place later this week. I will post pictures then. As long as the proof is all sound, the rest of the run will go to print!

Blood Tally ebook!
over 4 years ago – Fri, Nov 22, 2019 at 10:30:12 PM

Hey all! Brian here to let you know that the Blood Tally ebook has been distributed through Backerkit! If you check your downloads section, you should have a file with the epub and mobi, and another file with the PDF. Apologies for being a little late, there were some hiccups in the ebook formatting process. 

An update on the hardcover and audiobook: Luke Daniels is hard at work on the audio, and Shawn King is finishing up the cover for the hardcover - once that's ready it'll go to print! Just a warning: the timing on the print might get a little wonky because of the season, but I'll keep you guys in the loop with delays and updates.

Thanks again for everyone who supported. I hope you enjoy the book!

Digital Distribution

Hey all! Brian here to let you know that I've sent out all the add-on ebooks from Backerkit. Let me know if there are any problems or if I've missed something. Remember that you should have already gotten your copies of Uncanny Collateral (for those of you who had that in your pledge level).

I'm told that I should have the formatted Blood Tally ebook this weekend. I plan on distributing it as soon as I've gotten it and looked it over. I'll do another update then, so keep an eye out!
