Blurb:
With their initiate year over, the Pettit family dispersed to their separate adept postings: Jenn would be on the border with Krogga, defending against incursions. Yukiko was to patrol near Alturis, giving her the chance to see Gregory’s home and childhood friends. Mindy was going back to Grackle to help their younger friends with their troop training. Gregory was headed off to the far northern end of the empire, going to what was known as the most dangerous patrol for an adept magi.
Gregory was sure that Sage Laozi Windfoot had set his posting there to make sure no one said he’d played favorites, but it made him worry for his men— it would take months to get to the town of Coldwood, and his year wouldn’t begin until he relieved the current adept. That would make it closer to a year and a half before his family could gather together in Krogga.
To get there, Gregory would need to use his foresight and knowledge to survive. It wasn’t just the bane beasts that would make the post dangerous, but the eurtik who lived in the north, too. The free eurtik were hunted by slavers, but were also known to attack slavers and magi guard units alike to try to free their kin.
If that wasn’t enough, Gregory would also need to play politics while in the twin towns of Coldwood and Icelake. Both had magus-tier magi posted to them, as incursions of eurtik and bane beasts were common. They were probably the worst kind of magi: those who loved eurtik slaves, or would willingly profit off helping the slavers.
Gregory would need to make hard choices for his adept year. What would he let happen around him while posted to the most dangerous part of the empire? Was it better to turn a blind eye to get by as easily as possible, or would he stand in the way of the powerful people there?

Can’t wait for the next in the series!!

2023-09-11 18:08:50 +0000 UTCNot at this time. I normally let Social media know when recording has begun
Daniel Schinhofen
2023-09-10 15:07:15 +0000 UTCAny word on when the audio version will be done? I am waiting on it and know the narrator is verry busy and they are the absolute best so waiting for them is a good thing. Just curious if there is an estimate...
Carolyne
2023-09-10 01:43:15 +0000 UTCWell he is going to be master after Krogga. Then I think he'll have to go spend some time near/in Limaz for his second magus posting (so he can make friends/allies and because that was one of the places that Lightshield had Rafiq research). Depending on circumstances, he might be grandmaster by the time he returns from there. Then I think Yuki's parents are going to give them their big status symbol house and that is where the orphanage kids will reunite with them. I think a lot for the series will depend on what he does after Limaz, when the emperor finally takes notice of him and if he has to be sage or divine before he declares himself and takes on the emperor and slavery.

2023-09-09 22:27:24 +0000 UTCConsidering how long magi live we will either get decades long time skips or a series that never ends 🤞
Brad Baker
2023-07-15 13:38:26 +0000 UTCGood question. I assumed that the next book would be all 5 years of his magus tier. Otherwise this will be an extremely long series otherwise I think.
Joshua
2023-07-15 08:34:39 +0000 UTCSo how big of a time skip should be expecting in the next few books?
Brad Baker
2023-07-14 22:12:04 +0000 UTCWell ive bought it loved it and its so annoying when your trying to read and people keep interupting like bosses and parents wives and children "do people not understand i have to read daniels new book, everything else is secondary".
Michael Jackson
2023-07-13 14:10:54 +0000 UTCBecause sometimes post is not reliable. Especially when going from the ass end of nowhere to corners of no and where.
Daniel Schinhofen
2023-07-13 13:49:23 +0000 UTCWhy didn't Greg get a letter from his father or Gunnar this year? I'm still somewhat surprised not a one of this clan seniors have written him at all either.
Joshua
2023-07-13 09:50:42 +0000 UTCBought it, read it, loved it. More?
Collateral_ink
2023-07-13 00:26:57 +0000 UTCMan I wish we could fast forward through some of the other series to get the last BW and next AR books
Brad Baker

Edwin Courser
2023-07-12 16:08:07 +0000 UTCRefresh, refresh, refresh...
Alex Frenkel
2023-07-12 14:05:56 +0000 UTCWhat time zone on the 12th? Or is it random...when Amazon gets around to it... At least I am not alone in waiting with excitement for the release.
Carolyne
2023-07-12 10:36:41 +0000 UTCSame. Woke up, looked at the time and cursed that I wokr to early.
Allen Deck
2023-07-12 09:23:01 +0000 UTCDammit woke at 3am MDT June 12th now the wait begins May the release come soon
Glen Shepard
2023-07-12 08:54:12 +0000 UTCI wish this was a release that was the 12th of this month, regardless of time zone.
Shannon
2023-07-12 05:33:14 +0000 UTCDo you have any idea when it will be on Amazon. I'm waiting on pins and needles
STANSTAN42
2023-07-11 23:36:35 +0000 UTCI love your covers.
STANSTAN42
2023-07-11 23:29:09 +0000 UTCBroken rune, yes
Daniel Schinhofen
2023-07-11 12:07:11 +0000 UTCi was thinking the same thing, that it was a broken control rune
Morris Crawford
2023-07-10 16:09:31 +0000 UTCSorry for my question, but is the cover showing a broken slavetoken?
Stefan Holze
2023-07-10 13:34:50 +0000 UTCI wish we could help you do it quicker but oh well, the 12th is still fairly soon.
Matthew Malkin
2023-07-10 11:53:40 +0000 UTCUnknown, but Andie has it slated for recording in September I think, so maybe October.
Daniel Schinhofen
2023-07-10 04:30:57 +0000 UTCStill doing final checks.
Daniel Schinhofen
2023-07-10 04:30:18 +0000 UTCHad the same thought. Worried for Rafiq but also possibly one of the twins (Polka I think). I can see a scenario where they’re punished/killed “legally” by a magus forcing Greg to act
wander
2023-07-10 00:29:53 +0000 UTCI worry that Greg keeps being told that his path leads to pain as well as joy. In an area where there are a lot of slaves and we know that he is going to try and help the slaves or at least make sure that the laws are upheld, I worry for his favorite slave friend, Rafiq. Especially since it is mentioned over and over how long it will be before Rafiq gets to see his family again. I worry that things will go bad and Rafiq will die. :(
Sam
2023-07-09 22:51:33 +0000 UTCHow long after till the audiobook do you think
Death Renegade07
2023-07-09 21:19:47 +0000 UTCOooor you could publish it today? 😬
Drew Risch
2023-07-09 19:31:11 +0000 UTCAwesome art! Love the slave rune breaking imagery.
Eric Bailey
2023-07-09 15:52:40 +0000 UTCwhooohooo!!!
Joel Wilkinson
2023-07-09 15:21:39 +0000 UTCI thought the same, but my first question was "WHO's control rune is that?"
Jeff Ford
2023-07-09 14:48:11 +0000 UTCIs that a slave control rune? Seems fitting to depict Greg’s goals
David Florish
2023-07-09 11:08:55 +0000 UTCwhat does the writing in the image say in english?
