February 1, 2012: Huge, major, MULTI-AUTHOR contest!

I’ve run contests before, but never anything remotely like this. I said I had a few more major announcements coming? This is one of ’em. πŸ™‚

Allow me to present to you the Crossing the Streams Contest. Running from now to the end of February, this contest–or rather, series of linked contests–involves not only myself, but about fifteen other authors. Most winners will win a signed book, from the author whose contest they won. (And yes, you can enter more than one author’s contest.) But one of you? A single lucky "super-winner" will receive a free signed book from each and every author involved.

Yep, really. :mrgreen:

Click on over to the contest page, not only for rules on how to enter the contest here on my site, but links to the contest pages of everyone else involved. (A few of them may not quite be live yet, if you’re clicking on these on our first day, but try again in a couple of hours.) Get going, and good luck. πŸ™‚

January 31, 2012: Apocalypse Now (aka that Announcement I’ve Been Teasing)

So, for a while now, I’ve been talking about a tie-in novel that I’ve been writing. I said it was for a property that I’d never worked with before, and that it was the first novel attached to said property. Well, I’m finally allowed to talk a little about it.

How many of you are fans of the Darksiders series of games? πŸ˜€

Set millennia before either of these games, Darksiders: The Abomination Vault is the first novel to explore the past activities and development of the Four Horsemen (only some of whom even vaguely resemble anything Biblical), servants of the Charred Council and protectors of the Balance between Heaven and Hell, Good and Evil. You can find out a little more about it over at the official announcement.

This book was an absolute blast to write. It’s easily the most cinematic/action-oriented of my books thus far, and I’ve tried to make sure it’s accessible even to people who aren’t familiar with the games. I really hope you guys have as much fun with this as I did. πŸ™‚

More when I’m allowed to reveal more. (And also more announcements, unrelated to this one, in the near future.)

January 30, 2012: New books available now

Hey, folks. Hope you’ve been having a good new year thus far.

Although it’s a bit early, Thief’s Covenant is now available from some online vendors. If you’ve been waiting to get this one, wait no more. Links to the major online sellers can be found on the book’s own page.

(Oh, and yes, there will be Kindle, Nook, and other e-versions. They’re just not up yet.)

Second, Tales of the Far West, a short story anthology to which I contributed–along with quite a few other amazing authors, including Scott Lynch!!–is also available in e-formats, with print coming shortly. Click on over to that page for details.

Finally, keep on eye on this site. I have a couple of major announcements coming in the next few days. πŸ™‚

December 13, 2011: Preorders and a New Cover

Heya, folks.

False Covenant–the second Widdershins adventure and sequel to the forthcoming Thief’s Covenant–is starting to show up for preorders. You can find it at Amazon and Barnes & Noble now, and it’ll shortly be at other vendors as well.

Also now available for preorder is the short fiction/original music anthology Foreshadows, which includes a short story of mine. Click on over to their site for details.

And finally, back to False Covenant for a moment, allow me to present the cover, once again provided by the esteemed and inestimable Jason Chan! Hope you love it as much as I do. πŸ˜€

November 7, 2011: Not-so-secret Agent
