The Lunar Prince and Life Update
Hello to former and future readers.
Firstly, I want to apologise for the significant delay in updates and publishing. I intended to finish The Lunar Prince series in 2021 but life stepped in and changed my plans. I went off to university and went through a significant number of personal changes. Now in July 2025, my personal commitments have shifted and I am close to finishing the final book in the series. I have also renamed book 3 from The Galactic Crown to The Solar Prince as I felt The Galactic Crown sounded too sci-fi for a fantasy series.
Considering a few years have passed, I will update the previous two books in the series. These updates will include new edits, updated contents pages, and brand new cover art. I will also hold a promotion on Amazon to celebrate the release. The release date has not been set and will be published as soon as the book is ready. I am in the final editing stages. I wish I could share the cover art for all three books with you but Goodreads does not allow this type of upload in a blog post.
As for future works, I have a few ideas and I am setting the groundwork for new novels in the future. I'm excited to finally be able to get back into writing and share all of my stories with you.
I want to personally thank everyone who has stuck with the series, the new readers, and those who will find me through my future works. Thank you, and I hope to hear from you soon :)

The Lunar Prince Cover and One Year Since Writing.
It's been around 13 months since I began writing The Lunar Prince's final draft, so I thought I'd follow it up with a dedicated blog post to talk about the series, where it's going and what other works I've got planned (for anyone interested of course).
April 2020: The Lunar Prince has had a full and final cover rework and is available on Amazon worldwide. I felt the original works were not reflective of the genre and didn't accurately speak for my work. This also means The Celestial King (book 2) will be reworked very soon to match The Lunar Prince. I'm extremely excited to share the new designs with everyone and hopefully they will be updated on Goodreads shortly.
TLP Series: The third and likely final book in the trilogy is in the works. Named The Galactic Crown, it will follow on a couple of months after book 2 left off. No spoilers as of yet.
Other works: Last month I published The Curse of Redeia (Kindle) and I'm very pleased with the outcome and overall response.
John. is getting a cover revamp in the coming weeks and I will be excited to share this too.
I've also got a new young adult fantasy series in the early stages of development. This book is not related to any of my current books.
A word of thanks: I want to thank all of my readers and supporters and let everyone know how much I appreciate you. Please follow this blog or my main wordpress blog for more updates and information.

The Celestial King Released.
Happy Valentine's Day.
Today the second book in The Lunar Prince (TLP) has released on Amazon (available Kindle format).
Note: To whomever is continuously attempting to claim my work as their own (along with works from other authors) please stop. I have reported you TWICE to Goodreads now. It isn't acceptable to claim other people's work as yours for whatever reason. I've proven my copyright and ownership of the title John. and The Celestial King; you may have a similar name to me but that is no excuse for falsely tagging yourself as the author of other people's works.

The Lunar Prince Book 2 Release Date
It’s coming. Book 2 of The Lunar Prince series: The Celestial King. Scheduled for an Amazon exclusive release in early spring 2020.
Following the events of the first book, The Celestial King portrays the darker, less fluffy side of palace life, and gives more detailed insight into the lives of recurring characters and introduces some new faces. War is coming; Evan and Nathaniel need to prepare, but with a nation at odds with the crown, and warlocks on the path of annihilation, a great betrayal is about to take place that could bring the McIntyre reign to a bitter end.
