The Emerald Storm (The Riyria Revelations, Vol. 4)
In October 2010 I sold myRiyria Revelationsseries of books to Orbit (fantasy imprint of big-six Hachette Book Group). As such, the original versions are now officially "out of print" and available only by third-party vendors who are selling what are now essentially "collector editions".  Orbit took the six-book series and re-released them as three, two-book omnibus versions (published from Nov 2011 to Jan 2012).  The fact that the series is published in two different formats is often confusing, so here's how the books break down.Original self-published editions (now out of print)The Crown Conspiracy(originally published by AMI, and later by Ridan)AvemparthaNyphron RisingThe Emerald StormWintertidePercepliquis*The new incarnation of the series from Orbit Theft of Swords containsThe Crown ConspiracyandAvemparthaRise of Empirecontains Nyphron Rising and The Emerald StormHeir of Novroncontains Wintertide & PercepliquisDue to overwhelming demand for more Royce and Hadrian stories, a new series,The Riyria Chronicles, has been created that tells the duo's early adventures including their first assignment and the forming ofRiyria. This new series will also be released by Orbit following their "a book per month" schedule.The Riyria ChroniclesThe Crown Tower- August 1, 2013The Rose and the Thorn- September 5, 2013For those interested in other projects, I have a number of things underway.Antithesis: an urban fantasy (which I will self-publish in 2013)Hollow World: a time travel science fiction story (to be completed in 2012)A new (untitled) fantasy series: (to be completed in mid 2015)A Burden to the Earth: a literary fiction piece (completed but needs editing)In addition he will have short stories in the following anthologies:Traditions in Triumph Over TragedyThe Jester in UnfetteredAutumn Mists in The Fantasy Faction AnthologyBurning Alexandria in The End Anthology*Percepliquisis technically the only book of the original series that is not "out of print." For those who originally readWintertide this edition allows for the stand-alone version so that they can complete their series. The content is identical to thePercepliquiswhich is found as the second book in theHeir of Novronrelease.
