Here, for the first time, I reveal to you the cover of Cradle 7: Uncrowned. Take a moment, scroll down, and bask in its glory. Bask, I say!
Once you're done basking, scroll back up, because I have news. This coming Thursday, September 5th, the Uncrowned ebook will be available for pre-order! (We're hoping to have the audio version releasing at the same time as the ebook, but audio pre-orders are weird, so it won't go up for pre-order at the same time.) To celebrate this launch and of course DragonCon (which is where I currently am, by the way), there's a sale for 10% off all Cradle merchandise now through September 7th! Grab that Orthos T-shirt you didn't know you needed in your life! Is that enough? No, it isn't. So Cradle: Foundation will also be going on sale for free tonight for five days! Let the sky rain Cradle! ...and you'll notice that there's one key piece of information left out of this blog: how long is the pre-order? When will the book actually be released! Good question! Find out soon! -Will

So this comment made me think and it's now my headcanon that Suu already has a lover. That Harmony's axe was given to him because he was supposed to marry Mercy and the two weapons are bonded. It's silly but it's all your fault lol

That's right, it's Suu. MY BAD. To be honest though, I'm pretty happy this spawned headcanon because that's what every person strives to achieve!

I actually think it would be hilarious and amazing if the first major romance written in Will's books is about two sentient weapons.

Does pre-ordering give you any benefit Will? As a rule I normally do not because it used to mess up the order and actually would delay me getting the book. Willing to risk it if it does literally anything for you.

I am thinking it will be released October 1st in keeping with Will's track record of releasing books on the first of the month. Now there is a possibility that " Will legit" is really Will trolling us and thus the book comes out prior to October.

The only thing I'm worried/curious about is how far the book's going to go in the story. Will the year long training be montage? Or will the Tournament be glossed over in order to shorten it? How much Orthos and Kelsa action will there be in the story? As much as I love the books I feel that they're too short in order to accommodate another story line. Additionally, the amount of story development possibilities involving a grumpy/slightly hostile Akura clan and a year's worth of Sage grade Training. Lindon and Pride are bound to be rivals. If that is flushed out then there's no time for the Tournament. But if the Tournament is flushed out then the training montage is being sacrificed.

Honestly I hope that the title is misleading. I hope that they focus on the Training time period and their development and character growth. And Just Arrive at the Tournament at the end of the book. I'm also Hoping for an epic final tournament battle between Lindon and Ethan, with Yerin and Mercy taking a 3rd and 4th place.

Trmptplyr07 the title wont be misleading the word "uncrowned" is in the name of the tournament sorry I cant remember its exact name... but that's why it is the title of the book .. because the book will be about the tournament lol

I don't think so. Last time he ran a pre-order it was just to test how it would affect his sales and we all still got it at the same time. I doubt it would be different this time around.
