Hello, I am so looking forward to release of the book. Can't wait to read the short about Varg as well.
Hello! Can't wait for the new book and varg story. It will be nice to see if my guesses are correct! :)
Oh, I'm all excited and really am looking forward to this! I will start the re-read of the first book or listen to the audio version next week. :-)Do you know when it will be available on Amazon.de? I can't find it on there yet. Will the special price also be available on there?

Nicole, It should be available on Amazon DE at the same time as in the US, I think. I post it once and select all the countries I can. Then Amazon processes it and they should all publish at the same time or near the same time. And yes, the special price will be reflected everywhere. I select my settings to base all pricing off of the US price. However, I'm not sure what your price will actually be since I'm not sure what exchange rate Amazon uses. It will definitely be lower that first weekend.

I know everyone has been guessing about Varg. So I asked my readers on Facebook what they wanted as a prize for the release parties and gave them that as an option, that is what the majority wanted. So, I aim to please. :)
Mod
Thank you Steven. :) I can't wait to see what everyone thinks of it.

Hi! Can't wait for the release! Do you know if it will be available on Audio the same time?

Hi Wendy. It definitely will not be on Audio at the same time. :( I'm afraid my confidence level isn't high enough to do it that fast yet. Let me explain. When I do an Audible book, I have to sign a contract with the narrator for seven years. And, the book has to exactly match the Audible or it isn't eligible for Whispersync. So that means once I do the Audible I can't make any changes in the book. At all. Period. For seven years. Because I can't make the narrator change her narration based on any small changes I want to make as a result of reviews. So, sadly, until I've got a few more books under my belt, I'll feel more comfortable waiting until a few months after the reviews start coming in to get the Audible produced. I'd like it to "ruminate" with you all before I make that commitment. I hope you understand.
Hey Lilo, thanks for the email letting me know about the release date can't wait to read it, is it possible to get reserved copies on Amazon UK cause I can't find the book on there. Oh I forgot to say congratulations on having your second book release.
Mod
I decided not to do pre-order as it would delay the release by at least two weeks. So you won't find it available on any site for pre-order. I actually don't get it back from the proofer until Sunday, then I need to accept her changes, format it, and publish it in time for the parties. :)
No pre-order, how could you. Just kidding, but I'm ready!

That way Goodreads will remind you and you will get updates on the event.
Not long to go!!! Really, really looking forward to release of your second book...
Mod

Hi Lilo. Thanks for the invitation. I look forward to learning more about your books.

Hey Wendy, I have an update. I checked in with the Narrator and she is able to start the audio toward the end of August, so we are planning for production to start them. So, roughly, I project the end of September.

That is so freakishly weird. Why would they put that clause in there without the ability to easily and inexpensively update it?
*is currently reading The Light Who Binds on his Paperwhite*
Just bought "The Light Who Binds". You know I won't get any writing of my own done until I finish reading this book.
Hey, I'm so glad you made it in because this is where the party will happen. The Light Who Binds finally has a release date.
Release Date: June 27, 2015
Good Reads Party
When: June 27, 2015, 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm EST
Where: Right here in this group!
RSVP: Click here
Please be sure you RSVP above so you will get reminders and updates. Also, please say "Hi" so I know you made it in.
We are going to have so much fun. Honestly, I will be shocked if we can fit it all into a one-hour session. We are going to have games and winners will get a free Kindle copy of the Light Who Binds. Plus, there will be a bonus door prize (see below).
I have other parties planned on Facebook and Twitter, so if you are interested in joining one of those, please do. I'll have different games at each and that's more chances to win a copy of The Light Who Binds! Here's the full party schedule.
Click here to see the long awaited cover!!!
BONUS ONE: If you purchase The Light Who Binds on June 27 - 28 you will get it for a reduced price of $3.99. After that it will increase to Amazon's recommended price which will probably be $5.99 to $6.99 (based on what they recommend for The Light Who Shines)
BONUS TWO: All who come to the release party on June 27th will get a free copy of The Binding of The Wolf, the short story that provides the Varg's backstory.
SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: 100% of my royalties earned for Book One, The Light Who Shines, during the weekend of the release parties, will be donated to the International Wolf Center. This donation is in honor of all of my readers who have raved about Blue's guardian wolf, Varg. The International Wolf Center is a charity dedicated to wolf education and is rated four out of four stars by Charity Navigator.
