A Personal Request
If you’ve enjoyed any of my books, please leave a review. It makes more of a difference than you might imagine. One of the biggest things you can do to support me as a writer (right after “Buying my books” and “Recommending them to your friends”) is leaving a review at Amazon.com.
These are my books that are currently available:
The Dragonprince’s Legacy
The Dragonprince’s Legacy is the bestselling fantasy story of Daven Carrickson, a humble shepherd who experiences firsthand the cataclysmic waking of the dragons, and fights men and monsters for humanity’s survival.
There are currently three books available in this series. Book four (a collection of novellas) is scheduled for release summer 2013.
- Taming Fire
- The Dragonswarm
- The Dragonprince’s Arrows (coming summer 2013)
- The Dragonprince’s Blades
- The Dragonprince’s Odyssey
- The Dragonprince’s Heir
Note that books 1, 2, and 6 were originally released as The Dragonprince Trilogy. You can get started on the larger series with Taming Fire, or grab the complete original trilogy in one volume.
More Stories from the World of the FirstKing
The Dragonprince’s Legacy continues after The Dragonswarm with a series of novellas that will eventually be collected as The Dragonprince’s Arrows and The Dragonprince’s Blades. The first of those stories is already available as A Darkness in the East.
I have two other short stories related (if obliquely) to the cataclysmic dragonswarms that underpin the Dragonprince series.
- “Remnant“
- “From Embers“
I also have another short story from the same universe, focusing on a different era altogether (and a whole new magic system). Grab a copy of the first issue of our anthology, A Consortium of Worlds, and look for “The Bloodshield Betrayal.”
Superhero Fantasy from the World of Auric
If you’ve already read all the dragonswarm stuff, I’ve got another whole universe of fantasy to offer. The World of Auric features a brand new genre, “superhero fantasy,” where larger-than-life adventurers battle sinister supervillains in a setting that is pure, epic fantasy.
If those two short stories seem like a cruel tease, you’ll be glad to know I’ve got a feature-length novel under development (Oberon’s Dreams), and we’ve specced out at least three epic trilogies featuring these heroes.
The Ghost Targets mysteries
The Ghost Targets mysteries are sci-fi novels exploring a near-future world with perfect universal surveillance. Or…almost perfect.
We abandoned privacy and turned databases into something like gods. They listened to our prayers. They met our needs and blessed us with new riches. They watched over us, protected us, and punished the wicked. We almost made a paradise.
There are currently four books available in this series. Book five is scheduled for release August 2012.
- Surveillance (or, Gods Tomorrow)
- Expectation
- Restraint
- Camouflage
- Faith (coming summer 2013)
Get started with Gods Tomorrow.
Just read you first two books over the past week. Sorry to read each so quickky considering each one took year. But now I’m hooked – when will the third book release and will it be out on kindle?
Hey, Michael! Thanks for asking. The third book will be out in June, and it’ll definitely be available on Kindle. In fact, it’ll probably be on Kindle first.
If you watch this page (or subscribe to my author page on Facebook), you might even be able to get an Advance Reading Copy of book three. I’m hoping to have some available mid-May.
Just finished The Dragonswarm. What a page turner! I quite enjoyed it and I look forard to June so I can do it again. This series realy is a great story.
Thanks, Randal! I can’t wait to get you more.
I’ve always felt that fantasy novels were a waste of time, until a year ago when I started to read them exclusively. It started with some of the legends in this genre like lord of the rings and such, but it has progressed to a large verity of other novels. I’ve waited for the second book, and now I’m waiting for the third. even though I don’t consider myself a full fledged connoisseur in this matter just yet, but your novels are amazing by all regards. I found the second novel to be amazing and thrilling. I just feel hurt to know that financial issues are a burden to you that the modern pop culture is trying its best to force you under its meaningless grasp. That the teenage society of readers only view vampires and werewolves as any importance. I hope the third book is released soon, that the troubles you’ve been facing won’t destroy a legend in the making
Looking forward to book 3 just finished re reading book 1&2 can’t wait till third hoping it to be out in few days.
Can I have a date for it on kindle if I has one yet greatly appreciated.
Cheers.
I just started Taming Fire, and it is amazing so far. I’m curious, do you have a pronunciation guide somewhere?
Thanks, Steven!
Man…I don’t have a pronunciation guide, but it’d be a good idea, huh?
Here’s the short form:
Oh, good to know! I’ve been pronouncing his name like David but ending with an N…so it actually rhymes with Gavin. I think a pronunciation guide would help. How do you pronounce Claighan?
I Read the first two books in the DragonPrince trilogy during spring of this year and summer of this year, then yesterday on my long and boring ride from Austin Tx to Lubbock Tx, I decided to see if the third book had been released and thankfully it was. I bought the ebook and read the entire 6 hour car ride. I just finished it and am very pleased with the way you wrapped up the series. Not necessarily how i would have liked it to end, but are books ever meant to be what people want? Thought you did a great job and am looking forward to the things you said were in store in the back of the ebook. Thanks for this great series
These books are awesome! I only recently finished Taming Fire, and I can’t wait to read the next one!
i have read all three of your books and absolutely LOVE them. thank you for all the time and effort that you’ve put into them xxx this book made me feel alive and actually part of the story.
i just have one question for you – what happened to all the people of terrailles including isabelles dad??????
I read about 80 books a year and they are all in the fantasy genre. You create a vivid experience for the minds eye. Thank you. I am currently on #2 and wanted to buy #3. Is it only available in a trilogy format or can i get an ebook of just #3. Also I see the next one available is #7? Where are 4, 5, and 6?
Thanks for much for the kind words, Walter!
As far as your question goes…I tried to come up with a simple and straightforward answer, and there’s really not one. So instead, I wrote you a blog post.
