TL;DR: Book 9 chapters (595-698) coming down April 4th. Pre-edit book 9 PDFs attached, get them while you can.

As a quick note, daylight savings has shifted my local time, so the time this post is released will be the same time chapters will be starting tomorrow.

Book nine is preparing to launch in the usual ebook and audiobook formats on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, Audible and Amazon paperback on the 18th of April. As such, the chapters for book nine (595-698) will be coming down from Royal Road, Scribblehub and Patreon on the 4th of April.

Book nine is the longest in the series, so a lot of chapters will be coming down this time. I know that the publication of the series has been slowly-but-surely catching up to the free releases, so I would like to reiterate at this time that all chapters will be available on Royal Road, Scribblehub and Patreon prior to publication. That will continue throughout the series and will not change. Books nine and ten are scheduled for release this year and all book ten chapters will be available for months prior to coming down for publication.

I'll also take this chance to once again thank you, my amazing readers for the support they have given me and this story over the last few years. It has eclipsed anything I ever anticipated and allowed me to to become a full-time author, a dream many people who read these stories share. What you have all done for me has transformed my life, and I hope I've been able to bring you some fun, some entertainment, some escape, and a chance to vent frustration by saying things about me in the comments.

Many historians would that the greatest sign of a true civilization its' ability to support its' artists and those of a creative disposition. But you Travis, are an example of this notion on a world level not only because of the reach and scope of our technology, but also the visible potential and power of your writing that draws us all in here to support you from across the face of the planet. We have sat and read and witnessed your writing go through a metamorphasis, and I in turn in many instances have noticed the personal philosophical state of identity you have firmly come to grasp as you've put your thoughts down unto paper. Truely you seem to exemplify the very concept Immanuel Kant expounds on with the idea of skill specialization, because you sir are no "bungler" as he might put it. Please do carry on good sir, and know you have a friend (for life at this point) here in the USA. Time and space may separate us from those we most admire and appreciate, but we can all imagine having a nice barbie together, and just maybe a drink with a little paper umbrella sitting in it.

Will we have epilogue chapters at the end of book 9 like we did in 3&6? I’m curious to see what is happening on earth

Kevin Anderson

Great question. Have epilogue chapters been posted here in advance or were they surprises in the published books?

Shirtaloon

No epilogue chapters this time, sorry. Normally I write them during a break between books, but I was too wrecked last year.

Mason Stedman

I love that you’ve referenced seven wonders and Gloomhaven lol. Love both games

Quentin Sastre

Does that mean we can't read those chapters between the 4th and the 18th? :'(

Shirtaloon

Sadly, it does. This is a gap that comes before every book release and I absolutely hate it.

Quentin Sastre

Bad timing for my subscription then :/ I was like, book 9 not available yet, chapters disappeared from royal road, les subscribe XD Guess I'll have more to read when they get available again! Thanks for your answer and for your work!

CONOR TUNNELL

Aaron J

That’s too bad, I hope the new writing schedule is helping out with that though! Loving the series so far, looking forward to seeing what you have in store for us!
