I’m 90% sure there will be a huge Battlecry series omnibus for sale before too long–the only question is what I’ll put in it! I have a TON of options:
- Artemis
- Several short stories (including Benjamin’s POV of when he met Jill, the park scene, and the warehouse scene!)
- A few more short stories that take place between Battlecry and Sentinel
- A short biographical story of a side character introduced in Sentinel
The real question is what I’ll do with Excalibur. By legal contract, Excalibur is part of the Enclave Authors box set Of Beasts and Beauties, which is doing pretty darn well. I’m not sure if I want to remove Excalibur to put into my own box set. I will discuss this with my colleagues in the next few months, and ask them their own plans for their stories.
If I do remove Excalibur, I’ll also commission a new cover (I really dislike the current one) from my usual artist and also release it as a .99 solo book on Amazon.
Sentinel was almost entirely done by the time Battlecry hit Amazon. I had some minor revisions to do (just cleaning things up and tweaking a word here and there), but basically all of Sentinel was written in 2016-2017. Mercury is about 3-5 chapters from being “done,” but of course I’ll need to revise in places, and then submit it to the proofreader. It is currently slated for a 10/1/18 release, and I plan to stick to that.
I hope Sentinel meets your expectations! I’m so excited! 😀
