We're coming up on the end of the book very shortly. Technically the next chapter is the last one, however I'm working on an epilogue to sort of round off the end of the book and give us one more look at the wider world. This is a late addition, but over the past month or so I've become increasingly convinced the book needs one.
That means we have two more weeks before book 1 ends. So wha...

I had the typography on the cover redone professionally (with some tweaking by me, because I know just enough photoshop to be dangerous). The original one was something I made on my own, and I'm not a designer, nor am I good with fonts.
I'm probably going to put this up on RR on monday with the next chapter release, but I figured I'd go ahead and give you guys a high-res preview. :)

Here's the full size version of The Unholy monster from the previous chapter. The artist, as always, is John Latta. He really outdid himself on this one - it looks like it belongs in a D&D monster manual. At some point I'm going to have to create a statblock for it so people can use it in games. :P

Today on questions you probably didn't want the answers to: What exactly does live in that river that bothers everyone so much to look at. Well, the answer is these things.
I had my favorite monster artist, John Latta, draw up the entire evolution chain as concept art sketches. There's one more not featured here which we'll see later (technically we haven't seen the winged ones yet either...

I commissioned artwork of various unique monsters found in the book. Here's one such creature. We've heard of these from Regga - it's one of the things that killed Yanelle. I'm going to hold off on releasing more of them until we see them in the book, but since this one has already been mentioned I thought I'd go ahead an share it.

2024-01-18 17:00:12 +0000 UTC View PostChapter 21 is called “Infinity” for a few reasons, but the main one is that I consider this chapter to be the first time that you the readers really get to meet the main character of this series. That’s a pretty wild thing for me to say here, and you probably weren’t thinking about it like that before I said it. So why do I have that opinion?

Same image as last time, but now with a few design changes incorporated and more details. The infinity symbol will make its return on the book later as part of the coloring process.

There are a lot of jokes in this book that are probably only really visible to software developers. For example, Daemons aren't just the name of a 2024-01-03 00:06:55 +0000 UTC View Post
