Exciting Starbound Trilogy News!
The cover of This Shattered World, the companion sequel to These Broken Stars, is getting revealed on Tuesday, and with it will come the details for a truly exciting new development.
There’s been a release date change for This Shattered World, which is now scheduled for December 23, 2014. (No, don’t worry, this isn’t the exciting part of the news.) Of course, we know there’s going to be some disappointment about having to wait a little longer, so we’ve decided to make sure you don’t have to wait until December for the next Starbound story.
Yep: we’re releasing a novella in e-book format! It’s tentatively slated for an August release, and is all written up and polished and ready to go. We’ve been hearing from a lot of readers that they want more of Lilac and Tarver, so we listened. AND it’s going to have the first two chapters of This Shattered World included at the end of the novella, so you’ll be able to start reading book two even sooner.
While we can’t tell you guys all the details yet (you’ll have to check the cover reveal on Tuesday for that) we will tell you this… the working title we used while writing this novella: Tarver’s Story.
And wanna know the best part of all? The novella is going to be free.
Because we love you guys. <3

So, let me guess— you just started a new book, right? And you’re stumped. You have no idea how much an AK47 goes for nowadays. I get ya, cousin. Tough world we live in. A writer’s gotta know, but them NSA hounds are after ya 24/7. I know, cousin, I know. If there was only a way to find out all of this rather edgy information without getting yourself in trouble…
You’re in luck, cousin. I have just the thing for ya.
It’s called Havocscope. It’s got information and prices for all sorts of edgy information. Ever wondered how much cocaine costs by the gram, or how much a kidney sells for, or (worst of all) how much it costs to hire an assassin?
I got your back, cousin. Just head over to Havocscope.
((PS: In case you’re wondering, Havocscope is a database full of information regarding the criminal underworld. The information you will find there has been taken from newspapers and police reports. It’s perfectly legal, no need to worry about the NSA hounds, cousin ;p))
