In which we ramble on.

5 Years: Traveler's Gate Trilogy free!

5/15/2018

34 Comments

 
For the day of June 1st only, the whole Traveler's Gate Trilogy collection will be free on Amazon.com!

I wanted to do something cool for the five-year anniversary of House of Blades, but I wanted to do something that was actually cool. Not, like, "To celebrate this event, here's 5% off your next purchase (excluding sales items)!" 

But giveaways can be a little hard, because I have to ship any physical items with my own two hands. So let's give the ebook away!

I know that for most of you (and for me!), the real prize is that Ghostwater is coming out on June 1st. But hey, if you were on the fence about Traveler's Gate before now, you can give it a shot on its fifth birthday! And if you read the books on Kindle Unlimited but want to keep them forever, pick up the complete bundle on June 1st!

Why not? It's free!

That's not all! Further news coming soon!

-Will

That's why I do it. To snub them, so they remember their place.

Sometimes you have to take them down a notch by calling them by the wrong name intentionally.

Thanks for doing this Will! I already got all TB books (and all the others) but this is really cool.
How do you keep this hectic pace? Book every couple of months? Do you already have an idea where you wanna go with your series or is it book by book?

There is a plan. Sometimes that plan changes. But there is an overall plan.

You know what usually changes the plan more than anything? I realize that I didn't set up the plan well enough. And now the series is heading in a slightly different direction than I thought, so I have to adjust course accordingly.

Thanks for the great books and frenetic pace.

I didn't think I could be any more excited about June 1st, but here I am chomping even more furiously at the bit.

Enjoy the brief (couple days) respite from fans clamoring for more content.

I already have all three they were my first books from him, and while I absolutely love all of his books, the traveler's gate series would be one of my personal favorite.

Well, I already have a copy of each of the individual ebooks, but I might as well pick up the bundle as well. One for each of my seven Amazon accounts!.

Speaking of Will, which of your books is most desperate for more reviews?

Reply

5/15/2018 11:53:11 pm

Ghostwater.

Seriously though, I guess the Elder Empire books? Maybe Unsouled, if you haven't left one there already.

Yeah alright, I'll throw up some good reviews for the Traveler's Gate bundle and the Elder Empire. Maybe I'll wait until you publish your revisions to the early EE books so I can comment on those as well, depending on how extensive they are.

Humor me Will but I have a feeling that Orthos is going to die in this book. And in that case would it be safe to assume he will then take in the remnant. But I cant stop this feeling that he would continue to split his core. Thus, in theory he would eventually become powerful enough to be like a judge, but use his powers to enact on Ozriel's wishes................

Stephen

I don't think he can humor that. It wouldn't surprise me if orthos died. I think he'll continue his trend of beating people above his station. I look forward to seeing yerin. I'd also like to see London fight more people at his level and I'd like to see him go back to his homeland. I want to know more about what's underground too and why it hurts the dreadgods' feelers every time someone goes down there.

I can't respond to literally any of that.

I don't usually try too hard to be unpredictable, so it IS possible to call major turns like this ahead of time, but of course I can't say whether you have or not. You'll just have to find out!

Time to binge-read!

Thank you, Will! You're the best! (Wait... can I say that, or will it ruin your reputation?)

Damn, Will is on to me! This is his way of telling us he knows we pirated his books!

Oh well, I guess since I stole so many of your books I could at least leave a few five-star reviews on the stuff I've gotten for free during his promotional events.

Curse you Will, guilting me into feeling bad about stealing your intellectual property!

I promise I'll pay for them one of these days.

I own all the books in paper and e-book, the short stories, et al. I will buy the graphic novels, learn to play the card game when it is designed, and binge watch the Netflix series when it comes out. You could say I am a big fan of the stories. For your first published story-well done. I am going to buy the T-shirt now, how did I miss that announcement?

In book 6 will it be Lindon or Yerin who advances to Underlord as suggested by the title? Maybe Both!?!?!?!?

Any chance of a cover reveal before Ghostwater comes out in two weeks?

So... here's a thought. If Lindon keeps splitting his pure core... will the core become weaker and need to be built up again? Or will they produce the same quality madra that they did when he split his core but have lower capacity and need only to be built up in size again?
