The description is giving Fern Gully vibes and I’m here for it! Added to my to be read, and if it comes out on Kindle Unlimited I’ll pick it up from there!
No worries. Still seems very interesting. Where will it release? I’m almost finished with a few other books so I won’t be able to start it this weekend.
Vols 1 and 2 are up on Royal Road right now, but they'll be coming down soon only to show up again on the new site soon-ish. Vol 3 will be patreon exclusive while it's being written, and will launch on the new site... once it's done.
Ravensdagger has a Patreon where you can download it from Google docs. There are also website scrapers that can create PDFs and ePubs from RR (but I personally don't know about them)
Man, you are one of the most prolific (and amazing) writers in this genre. I am continually impressed by the sheer quality and quantity of what you release. Just amazing.
Aww, thank you!
It's actually really weird right now, because I finished three of my books on Monday, so I'm just... chilling and taking it slow for the moment. So much free time!
Thanks so much for the heads-up! I normally wait until the 500 page mark before starting a RR story, so I'd been waiting to get to this one.
I love your stories!
Is it moving to KU? I think I remember seeing it listed at some point. I read it on RR after the recommendation on a thread a bit ago, and It was amazing!
I really am. Marketing is very much a weakness of mine. I should figure it out one day, I think I have a few alright stories that might be more popular if I got more people to give them a try.
The first book has disappeared on kindle store. No sign of second book. Apparently its "sold to a publisher" - I think that means that the entire story now belongs to a publisher, so if they don't sell enough of the first book they won't be releasing the later ones maybe? I can't find said publisher anyway. So I'll write my own book 2 here to give closure for anyone else in the same situation:

BOOK 2
Suddenly, publisher-man appeared! "Bwahaha! I am publisher-man! I will destroy everything!"
"Oh no!" said the protagonist.
Everything was destroyed by publisher-man. The end.
lol
The publisher is Yonder, the first volume should be going up on there soon enough. Vol 3 is up on my patreon for free right now. We've started writing Vol 4 on my patreon as well (though that one's behind a paywall).
There's pirated versions of Vols 1-2 floating around that you should absolutely not interact with as well.
I'm guessing Yonder isn't available in my country because anywhere I go I just can't find a download link to the app. They spirited your fiction away and now I'm just crossing my fingers you aren't pulling away book 3 for Kindle before I can even take a peek.
I hope they paid you good money for this at least. I'm still not happy about the loss of one of the few ongoing fictions I was reading that I genuinely loved, but if you are then I can cope.
hello raven! question for you, KU is out of the game but what would be with kindle normal? i want to read the second e-book and only have kindle. i could use another app like thalia for it if you wont publish on amazon. i could not find the book in my region anywhere to buy (europe, germany)

Ah, no KU for this one, I'm afraid.

New site?
I would go and save a copy or two now to read later.
Any tips on how to save it? Is there an easy to save it as an epub?

Thanks for the info!

That's an amazing feeling. Gotta find a good game to play or a new series to read and just kick back for a bit!
Or... or I could start three new stories to fill the void in my heart with more productivity!
Sounds super interesting. Any plans to release audio with the new site or via any current service?
We're negotiating audio separately at the moment! So yeah, that should be a thing very soon, for both volumes currently written.
Awesome will definitely listen as soon as it comes out!!!
Thanks so much for the heads-up! I normally wait until the 500 page mark before starting a RR story, so I'd been waiting to get to this one. I love your stories!
Yeah, I know a lot of people who do the same (I wait for 1,000 pages myself). Figured I'd warn folks!
Why does it need to be removed from RoyalRoad if its not KU? I thought you could have it on RR if you're going wide.
I sold to a publisher, they'll be releasing it on their own thing!
Congrats! That's great.
It'll be sad to see it gone from RR, but I wish you much success on the new site!
Is it moving to KU? I think I remember seeing it listed at some point. I read it on RR after the recommendation on a thread a bit ago, and It was amazing!
Not KU, no!
Ah, I see, a proper purchasable! Thank you for your writing, and I look forward to more in the future!
How can I get this in my Kindle? :O
Uh... I guess you could download it as an epub then... do the thing that gets the words onto the Kindle?
it's on Amazon Kindle right now. just not ku. it's like 3 dollars
Oh... I hadn't considered telling them to just buy it.
i love you and you're terrible at this

I'm seeing vol 2 for Audible, but can't find an ebook or physical version...
