A while back, I made some noise about a new 3-book deal with Pocket Star – 2 of the books being in a new series titled YOUNGER GODS, and the other being a novella in the Ree Reyes universe, set after CELEBROMANCY.
Now that I have edits back on the novella, we’ve settled on a title for the novella: ATTACK THE GEEK. This book will be about half the size of a Ree Reyes novel, and focuses on one Incredibly Bad Night (TM) at Grognard’s, featuring Geekomancers new and old, magic curses, whacky monsters, more romantic tension between Ree and Drake, and the on-screen return of everyone’s favorite Grizzled Geekomantic Mentor, Eastwood!
ATTACK THE GEEK will be available on April 7th, 2014. Set your calendars now!
You can see it even now on Goodreads, and pre-order on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and iTunes. Other links to come. (N.B. the final price will be lower than $5.99, since it’s a shorter work).
w00t!
Great news!
This does seem, feature not bug, that this is for fans of either book, rather than being standalone (I noticed you kept Eastwood carefully off camera for Celebromancy to make new reader buy in easier)
Thanks, Paul! I really appreciate your ongoing support and excitement. š
This story will probably be better for readers who have gone through one of the two books, but as you mention, should work either way.
I’m hoping to make the next full-length story in the Ree Reyes series also serve as a jumping-on point, but I have several other projects to complete before I can get to that one.
Saw AtG on Goodreads just a little bit ago. Very exciting! and Younger Gods sounds intriguing, just from the name.
Always nice to have more delicious fiction to look forward to. š
Thanks! Attack the Geek was a total blast to write, and I hope ongoing Ree Reyes fans will be pleased.
Younger Gods has been an incredible challenge, and I hope that the stepping up Iām having to do pays off. š
Just finished with Celebromancy and loved it. Looking forward to more adventures in this universe and to see what the Younger Gods is all about.
Donny,
Thanks, that’s very kind! I’m excited to try a different style with YOUNGER GODS and grow as a writer. And I’ve got several more Ree Reyes stories in mind after ATTACK THE GEEK, so there’s plenty more in store.
