And that is the end of the book. I hope you enjoyed it. Even if you don’t love Miles, I hope at the very least the story was interesting. From the beginning, I was fairly sure some people were going to have a bad reaction to Miles, but in the end, it was the book I wanted to write. The series is planned as a trilogy because so much of the story is about Miles’ redemption and struggles with his own morality, and I have little interest in needlessly stretching that part out. Next book of course is set up for his villainous mentor to come back into the picture and that will create some lovely conflict as she no doubt tries to pull Miles back to the dark side and he tries to save her. But at what cost?

Also, a small note, I've gone back and made some of my biggest beta edits to date. Mostly around the Omnigirl plot, both making her a little more evil and actually getting some remorse/justice out of the following conversations with Mindfuck and Kim. Nothing huge, but you might notice it.

Mana is off to a slow start, if I’m honest. Maybe there’s a little inner toil of my own on how to end the series that launched me into a full-time author. But I had an epiphany when I went on a hunt for a pack of batteries that I knew I’d seen somewhere in the house. Only when finally gave up looking for them did I finally find them. So, I have stopped trying to force Mana 6 out and just letting myself go for a ride. It’s a little slower, a little more family and harem oriented. But I’m getting it done and I like it.

Mana 6 is on deck. Dragon 4 is next. Then I’ll need to decide between dao and supervillains.

I’ve been asked when I’ll return to cultivation and I have plans for that, but probably not until after the supervillain trilogy. My biggest problem is that I have just too many ideas. The top 3 are a LitRPG Post Apoc, warlock and demon summons as the primary harem. (starts 2 days after the end of Mana) An isekai, suppressed elf male, gets access to LitRPG like system and goes off on an adventure. (Probably on the smuttier side.) Cultivation with isekai and a focus on Body Cultivation with partner combatants like Fate/Stay Night (You know he’s going to be stealing or gaining more than one partner.)

Audio is rolling along. Dragon 3 is being recorded. Mana 5 is scheduled to be done by the end of April. And dao 2 in May. There is currently no plan for supervillains audio. I know, we all want the audio. But there’s just too much on my plate. I wanted to simplify my audio but even that is becoming difficult for stupid reasons. So it is in limbo for the time being.

Oh and because I'm trying not to do everything the night of release on this one. This one is going up for preorder. Glad I did, because I submitted it last night and it got stuck >.< So hopefully I can get it out today. If there was a book they want to have a spat over, I'm glad it is this one that I got started 3 days early :)
