In Selenoth, the race of Man is on the
ascendant. The ancient dragons sleep. The ghastly Witchkings are
no
more; their evil power destroyed by the courage of Men and the
fearsome magic of the Elves. The Dwarves have retreated to the
kingdoms of the Underdeep, the trolls hide in their mountains, and
even the savage orc tribes have learned to dread the iron
discipline
of Amorr’s mighty legions. But after four hundred years of mutual
suspicion, the rivalry between two of the Houses Martial that rule
the Amorran Senate threatens to turn violent, and unrest sparks
rebellion throughout the imperial provinces. In the north, the
barbarian reavers who have long plagued the coasts of the White
Sea
beg for the royal protection of the King of Savondir, as they flee
a vicious race of wolf-demons. In the east, the war drums
echo throughout the mountains as orcs and goblins gather in great
numbers, summoned by their bestial gods.
And when the Most Holy and Sanctified
Father is found dead in his bed, leaving the Ivory Throne of the
Apostles unclaimed, the temptation to seize the Sacred College and
wield Holy Mother Church as a weapon is more than some fallen
souls
can resist.
We’re working hard on getting the ebook out on December 1st. The hardcover won’t ship for about two weeks after that, so if anyone spots any errata of any kind in the ebook, be it typos, grammar, or continuity, please don’t hesitate to email them to me immediately and we’ll get them corrected. We will, of course, be providing updated ebooks to those who have purchased them. This is a little unusual, but then, the book is a hefty monster that is going to run around 900 pages in the 6×9 format and given that you guys managed to find over 100 errors in each of the three EW novels published and line-edited by Pocket, I have no doubt we’ll miss a few howlers here.
Marcher Lord also asked me to remind those who are interested in buying the hardcover, but have not yet preordered it that the preorder discount offer will end on Monday, November 26th. Remember that in addition to the discounted price, those who have preordered the hardcover will receive the ebook when it comes out. Thanks to all of you who have preordered already.
