A Delay, but Don't Dismay
I'll get right to it: there's no way I'm going to have Book V out this year.
It sucks, and it hurts, but I just can't do it. There are a lot of reasons (the biggest being that Without Words took a lot longer than I thought it would, which was itself late for reasons outside my control), but the book will be better for having more time.
Unfortunately, that means 2021 will be the first year I don't get a From the Ashes of Victory book out since I released the first one in 2018, and that is a bitter pill to swallow. I'm super bummed about it more than anything.
BUT
It likely means you'll be getting the sixth and final book a few months early! I'm writing them back-to-back, non-stop, and I don't see any reason to hold Book VI until November, when I had originally planned to have it out. That is, if nothing else goes wrong.
Book V is still in its first draft, but I've written a few bits and bobs for VI already, too. The end is in sight, which is a bittersweet thing to be able to say, more so for perhaps being even closer than I had thought it was.
So, now you know. No one is more upset about it than me, but I hope you'll find the wait was worth it. I will have a lot more to say when the time comes! For now, it's back to work.
