Cliffhanger

I know many of you are already reading “The Dragon’s War,” and I will go ahead and apologize right now. I love endings with twists that leave my audience hanging, but this book has probably the most evil cliffhanger of all time. I can only promise that the ultimate resolution will be satisfying and well worth the wait.

Hel is too hot for FB

So I’ve been working with a publicist on getting this book out and was just informed that Facebook rejected the cover of the new book for a sponsored post because it is “too explicit.” I am so proud right now…

Pre-order “The Dragon’s War”

Book 7 in “The Chronicles of Arianthem” will be released December 20th, just in time for that Christmas vacation reading. It’s available for pre-order now on Amazon. If you’re planning on purchasing the book, please consider pre-ordering it, which really helps with sales figures on Amazon. The fan base continues to grow with each release, and it would be great (and motivating) if it takes a jump with “The Dragon’s War.”

Also, if you like the series, please consider writing a review on Amazon or Goodreads, because I know a lot of people make their buying choices on such feedback. And as always, feel free to email me personally at samantha@arianthem.com if you have questions or comments.

A little teaser

So, I’m thinking fans of the series are going to get a little Christmas present. Not saying exactly what it is, but it might give you something to do over your Christmas vacation. Stay tuned….

Released to the wild

The Shadow Games for Kindle and in print on Amazon.

And so this is out, much earlier than my original September estimation, which makes me very happy. Someone pointed out very early this morning that the links weren’t live on Arianthem.com, but they should all be working now. Enjoy!!

“The Shadow Games”

I am pleased to announce that the sixth book in The Chronicles of Arianthem will be out Thursday, July 16th, 2015.

I was going to do the whole pre-order thing again through Amazon Kindle, but unfortunately, unbeknownst to Arianthem Press, Amazon changed their policy regarding lead time. So, to make it available for pre-order, the launch would be delayed by almost two weeks, so the decision was made to move forward. So please support the series and tell everyone you know that the book is on its way.

On a personal note, I think you will really enjoy this one, because it was very fun to write. Don’t get me wrong, I love all the books, but every once in a while a subplot will take on a life of its own and get very interesting. Characters that were supposed to be minor somehow come charging out of the shadows and take over entire scenes. In short, incredibly fun. I think you’re going to like it…

“The Dragon’s Alliance” out this week

So, due to the enormous pressure I was getting from fans (and several guilt trips), we pushed up our deadline and were able to get “The Dragon’s Alliance” out this week. It will be available on Thursday, January 29, and is available for pre-order on the Kindle right now. If you intend to purchase the book, I would encourage you to pre-order it since it will be automatically downloaded to your device first thing Thursday morning. (Maybe even one minute after midnight, not sure how that works). One thing I do know is that pre-orders greatly contribute to the book’s ranking since those sales are counted all-at-once, which increases the book’s visibility, which increases the fan base, which makes me write faster.

Now, there was my little guilt trip…cheers!

The Chronicles of Arianthem V

A little taste of your first week of February…

Kindle Version, “The Rival’s Concord”

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NCGHX90

A little weekend reading

So in keeping with my usual, total lack of marketing, I’m giving all of a day’s notice that Book 4 in the Arianthem series, “The Rival’s Concord,” will be out tomorrow, Friday, September 5th. So, as always, I am counting on the fan base to get the word out. The Kindle version will be available first thing, and all other versions, (including print), shortly thereafter. I will post the links as soon as I have them, as well as make certain the website is updated.

But please enjoy, tell your friends, and let me know what you think!
