Dawn of Chaos will be released on multiple bookstore platforms at intervals from March through June 2022.

I’m pleased to announce that I’ve now finalized a wide release schedule for the six novella-length “episodes” in Dawn of Chaos, the first volume in the Sanctum of the Archmage Saga.

Pre-orders have been set up for each book on all of the major e-book sellers, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, Barnes and Noble, and Rakuten Kobo. Beginning this week, on March 3rd, these pre-orders will begin going on sale on the schedule listed below:

Draft2Digital links point to Universal Book Link (UBL) pages for each book, which will include sites on which they will be available in addition to the major booksellers. Currently that will include Scribd, as well as several library systems. With the upcoming acquisition of Smashwords by Draft2Digital, this list is expected to increase in the near future.

In addition to the above, all six episodes in Dawn of Chaos are now (and will remain) available for purchase directly from Andarian Publishing, on this website. They can be found here:

Prologue to Chaos	The Return of the Horde	The Ring of the Killravens	The Massacre of Lannamon	The End of the Beginning	Aftermath	Hell Gate Box Set

Editions of the books available from Andarian Publishing are distributed through BookFunnel and are available without DRM.

Now that the release schedule for the books is set, my next step will be to plan several marketing and promotional campaigns for the series, and to send out a (long overdue) newsletter update. So stay tuned for more news to come!

I’ve now (finally!) completed preparing the six books of Sanctum of the Archmage Volume I: Dawn of Chaos for a wide release on every major e-book platform. The last step before that can move forward is to researching book promotion sites to (finally) set up for a proper launch for the series. Details will come soon, once I’ve figured out a schedule and set up the ads and promotions to support it. I anticipate that should all happen by the end of March, give or take a few weeks.

On release, the six novella-length episodes in Dawn of Chaos will appear in the following online bookstores: Apple Books, Rakuten Kobo, Barnes and Noble, and Amazon Kindle (for purchase only, not in Kindle Unlimited). They will also be available in a number of smaller, additional stores, subscription and library systems through Kobo and Draft2Digital, including: Tolino, Vivlio, Scribd, Overdrive, Bibliotheca, Baker & Taylor, and BorrowBox.

Right now I’m doing some very interesting marketing research into various book promotion sites, such as Book Barbarian, Robin Reads, Books Butterfly, Bargain Booksy, and the like. Wide marketing is turning out to be quite different than the standard “All In With Amazon” approach that many indie authors tend to favor.

That’s all for now. Keep an eye out for announcements soon about the release dates for Sanctum of the Archmage: Dawn of Chaos!
