Crypts & Cruelties 01
Added 2023-10-18 19:13:11 +0000 UTCHere's the fist chapter of my next book in the (mostly original) Lairs & Liches series, Crypts & Cruelties!
No, you don't have to read the previous books to understand what's going on, but it helps!
Next up, Waifu Ring!
Edit: I've been told that sometimes the attachments don't show up if you don't view the individual post, so if you don't see it try that!

That's completely fair, and if you want to skip to book 2, I'd understand. It's written so that you don't need to have read the first one to understand what's going on.

2023-10-29 16:45:21 +0000 UTCIt changes as it goes, as the adventure starts changing on them, and they start to work together more as they continue. It's also one of the first things I ever wrote, so it's kinda rough, like you said.

2023-10-29 16:25:57 +0000 UTCOkay I bought L&L, and have read 40 pages. Unfortunately it has been a rough read. Other than some family drama there is no tension, nothing compelling me to read the next page, because the MC knows every inch of the Dungeon, nerfed the characters, and is keeping everyone from freaking out and splintering. Does this change later in the story or should I skip to the next book?

2023-10-29 16:12:15 +0000 UTCThere was a good bit of clean up in editing, but, just like the AB chapters I'm posting on QQ (Which I really need to do more of (With my 'ample' free time, clearly)) the core details are all untouched. Before I publish C&C I'll go through and do another clean-up pass of both books (but not a deeper edit (no matter how much reading my early stuff pains me)), and the C&C book itself will have gone through some edits and clean up before posting, so it'll be legally distinct. They're also Dirt-Cheap right now, for E-Books, at $3 a pop, which will probably rise a little, at least for book 2, when I publish book 3.

2023-10-19 03:12:18 +0000 UTCI totally didn’t download it, but asking for a friend if there is a significant difference between it and the one on Amazon. Keep in mind a significant clean up in editing counts as a significant difference for me. Edit: I mean my friend (I legit accidentally wrote me instead of friend forgetting to follow the joke convention).

2023-10-19 03:07:32 +0000 UTCHey Lee is it a breach of contract with Amazon to have a free copy of your first book on here?

2023-10-19 02:29:55 +0000 UTCThe first one is on patreon, though idk if it is legal to have it there for free.

2023-10-19 02:29:21 +0000 UTCYeah, that sounds right. Just need to be able to afford it first.

2023-10-18 23:33:02 +0000 UTCWorks now, it’s funny because when ever I decide to read a chapter I press it before opening (or checking) but I didn’t want to read this as I was going back to sleep (alarm went off 2 hours early).

2023-10-18 22:36:14 +0000 UTCI hate starting a series in the middle, so I'll read this after I get around to reading Amateurs & Adventures and Burrows & Behemoths.
