So long to a series…

So I have sad news.  Berkley isn't buying any more Hunter books.  At this point, it looks like Hunter's Rise will be the final book.

Sales have been dropping off and when that happens, publishers just aren't too keen to keep on buying.  Writers love words but numbers often dictate how do things and this is one of those instances.  Numbers made the call here and mine have just sucked lately.  When the sales aren't there, things like this happen.

It kind of sucks because I had a really cool idea to reboot things and flip it on it's head.

Now I don't know what I'll do with it.  Before people rush to offer suggestions, please keep in mind I'm familiar with them...I'm not ruling out the idea of going digital with it again, but this series reboot would be pretty complex and longer, more complex ideas aren't always the easiest things to do with my epubs.  Self publishing it isn't ideal because it's a lot of hard work and there's very little guarantee of making much money.

I also have to work in whatever I do around the projects I plan to fill my plate with and longer projects aren't always doable.  This would be a longer project.

I very much appreciate all the readers who've supported the series over the years.  If at any point I can continue with it, I'll be sure to update the news here at my site.

In the meantime, if you can send it off with a bang, I'd very much appreciate it.

As with most of my Hunter books, this one works wonderfully as a standalone and it won't matter if you haven't read the other books in the series.  You can read an excerpt here or you can preorder at any of the links below.
