Hey everybody!
Sorry for the long time going idle. I've (finally) got another real release for you guys! It's been a long time coming. This book went super long, and to be honest I desperately wanted to split it into two books, but the story just wasn't possible to split.
So instead I'm publishing it all as one chunky book (Roughly 238k words). I had to actually shrink the page count by shrinking the margins lest the spine size increase the price point and cost you paperback collectors a bunch more money.
Anyhow, it is done now! Please, if you haven't given this series a try, give it a go!
This book was quite a journey, and I think I improved a lot as a writer for putting it to paper. I tried a bunch of new techniques that I never would have dared to use in the Spellheart series, and I'm glad I wrote it.
Here’s the blurb for book 2:
Beneath the Sacred Seas, demons are stirring.
An ancient evil rises. An army from the depths of hell comes with her.
In the heavens above, a seraph with more ambition than the heavens can contain is coming to confront her.
The Sacred Seas have become a playground for forces beyond their power to contend with. In the war between the Heavens and the Hells, only one man can stand for humanity.
But Darren is a keen sword forged in Hell. Growing up fighting demons for as long as he could remember, he is a naked blade that cuts down all in his path. This paladin of the sword must become a shield to guard what he holds dear.
Now the King of Limedeep and with new friends to protect, Darren must learn to protect what he holds dear.
And he'd best learn fast, for both the heavens and the hells are whispering his name.

In other news, I'm now working on Spellheart 8! I was slowly tinkering away with it in the background while writing this book, so most of the novel is drafted. I do tend to have lengthy editing processes though, so I'm not giving any firm release dates yet.
I have been putting this off for a while, but I think my schedule for the year has firmed up enough that I can post my tentative publication plans and the release dates I'm hoping to hit. Stay tuned for that.
As always, thanks for reading!
Does that mean we'll finally get to see Korra, Tivana or Amisra on the next cover?
ReplyDeleteAre you moving away from the "whiteknight" name? I was checking audible and saw this https://www.audible.com/pd/Spire-of-Blood-Audiobook/B09W7VPPTC pop up. I noticed that it doesn't have "whiteknight" but "knight" on the cover.
ReplyDeleteI then checked your old books and saw they all had "Marvin Knight" on the cover, but were listed under "Marvin Whiteknight" still.
Next audiobook is April 5th.
You haven't peeped in since my last post. The audiobook for Spire of Blood is officially out.

Ah, I forgot again. Yeah, I'm moving away from Marvin Whiteknight and just going to be Marvin Knight from now on.
DeleteIt was funny for a while, but getting the same questions and raised eyebrows all the time was starting to get annoying.
I will make a post shortly.
