Well, the 4th edition is now live at Amazon and at Smashwords for all platforms.

I used Catherine Lenderi to give the novella a good going over and the result is the definitive version.

What's changed?

Well, whatever mistakes got passed my eyes in the previous proof-reads. Nothing major to the storyline.

But the biggest change has to be the addition of THE EMERALD GRAVES 2nd edition at the back of the paperback LIBERTY OR DEATH version at CreateSpace. I decided to add this to this version only due to the giveaways and, although doesn't alter the ending, it gives an insight to the Battle of Vinegar Hill and Mullone's desperation to apprehend the French spy, De Marin.

I hope you enjoy it.

The 3rd edition of HEART OF OAK is now available to download from Amazon worldwide and Smashwords for all the ereaders out there.

If you have previously downloaded it, please update your devices to this latest edition.

Personally, I'm very excited. I think it's superb - I love the colours. There are a couple of changes to make: the British 95th Rifleman pictured is to be given a lighter tone, so he's more visible, but not too much for he's up in the shadowed rocks, waiting to pick off a French officer. And the tagline is to be moved.

Other than that, Jenny Toney Quinlan has done an exceptional job - it really brings the story to life, particulary of the foothills of Spain, where the guerrillero's were king's.

Let me know what you think?

Coming mid-November is an anthology titled Fire and Steel. It's a compilation of books 1-5 of The Soldier Chronicles, all together for the first time.

I've spent the last few months revising each story, expanding scenes, dialogue, adding, correcting to give my readers the ultimate collection.

I'm really pleased with the results and its definitely one big book of non-stop action, adventure, intrigue, but all set against real historical events.

The cover has been revealed on my facebook page www.facebook.com/davidcookauthor - please check it out and let me know what you think.
