UPDATES TO THE LEGENDS OF LANARIA SPECIAL EDITION OMNIBUS

Well. I bet you're wondering how I got here. 

Evidently, I have written well over 1100 pages in the Legends of Lanaria universe, no matter how much I reformat, tweak designs, delete special stories, and beg the little tech gremlins to help me out. KDP allows a ceiling of around 870 pages for paperbacks, and Ingram around 1,000. 

Over the past couple of weeks, I've come to the decision that I needed to make a big change in direction with this project, and the good news is we're back on track in a big way. The weird news that created  a LOT of work? I'm splitting them into Volume One and Volume Two, at least for print editions. 

The fun part? I'll have a cover reveal on my newsletter September 2nd, so click HERE to see it first!

How this affects preorders:

1) If you've already preordered paperbacks, you will receive both volumes instead of one book. No change needed!

2) If you've preordered a Kindle edition, there will be no changes and you will receive the full content from both volumes. There will be no volume one and two for Kindle, since it's digital space rather than print space. You get both for one price. 

3) If you have not yet preordered...well, I can't help ya there, but you can preorder signed copies on my Fourthwall OR preorder on Kindle! 


What this allows me to do: 
1) More exclusive stories that I wanted to explore and that readers have mentioned. 
2) Two exclusive covers instead of one.
3) I can actually make them both more affordable than what one huge chonker would have cost at a specialty print company.
4) Unfortunately, they're still too long for me to do hardcover editions, which some folks have asked me about. (Apparently, there DOES come a time when you have written *too much* and this is it.)
