Hidden Gnome Hurricane Season Update!

Will's brother, roommate, and Raion enthusiast Sam here, hijacking the blog for some news!

As many of you know, the majority of our team lives directly in the path of current category five Hurricane Milton. I would insert an Office Space joke here, but I’ve never actually seen it. So before we lose power and Florida sinks into the ocean where it belongs, a few notes:

-Our Kickstarter for limited editions of Uncrowned, Wintersteel, and Bloodline is pushing $960,000 with four days left to go!!! That is SO MANY OREOS! Reminder that the campaign closes this Friday, October 11th, at Noon Eastern. Huge thank you to everyone that continually blesses us and reaffirms that Cradle fans are the best fans!

If you would’ve told me two years ago that we would see a Kickstarter closing in on a million dollars not once but THREE times, I would’ve called you a liar and slapped Will. What a world.

-We have digital rewards for our animatic Kickstarter that were supposed to go out this week. We’ve decided to postpone that to next week so our team can focus on evacuating or getting their houses prepared as needed. We have some awesome updates we can’t wait for you all to see!

-Hardcover novels of Cradle books 1-6 are now available through Barnes and Noble and other big box retailers like Waterstones if you’re international! The rest of the series is available for hardcover preorder as well, with 7-9 coming in February and 10-12 next summer.

-Threshold, the collection of Cradle stories Will is writing, is further along than we expected. A release in the next few months is imminent. Unlike our “normal” releases, we will give plenty of notice about release date since Kickstarter purchasers will get access to the book a month early. Be extra wary of spoilers!

Our team appreciates all the warm wishes and messages! Even for seasoned Floridians, this storm is no joke. If you are in the path, especially on the west coast, please be smart and safe. Hunker down with some snacks and a book.

​Might I be bold enough to suggest The Knight, book three of The Last Horizon, written by some idio…I mean wise and handsome individual.
