Evan's Thursday Earth Prime Series update:



I'm working. I've family arriving tonight for an extended stay. I've been working all week on prepping for the visit and catching up with the backlog of author duties that no one ever told me about. That means Ads campaigns, creatives, and videos. I've also been catching up on a backlog of reading I'd promised people I would do. @JoshAmos and @SteveCampbell.



If you missed @BradFraunfelter's posting a few weeks back, you might not have seen Book Five's cover. I wanted a cover that pulled from the golden age of sci-fi. I wanted it to be a cover that evokes the possibilities that were never explored. The styling had to be, well, just right. Thank you, Brad.



I have a couple of reworked ads videos for everyone. Book Five's cover is at the end.



I'll be back to work on Book Three's continuity edits tomorrow.

I ordered some Giclee prints of my covers through my Illustrator, he was kind enough to sign them.

It's taken me longer than I had hoped; I persevered.
Book two, "I am War," is out.

"I am not a political man, but the politics of nations, industry, and crime have joined my wedding party.
The government and the industry that props the powers that be up know that I walk Gates with impunity. Their carefully orchestrated societal relief valve is gone.
As they slip their leash around my neck, they forget that this hound has teeth."

I'll work on A+ content this weekend.
The Amazon link to book two:

I've not been idle during this time. I've formalized the final draft for book 3 and have it back from my editor. She's now working on book 4. Book 5 is out of the rough draft stage and needs a review for the final draft state before going to the editor.

The Short stories and novellas need a final draft review before going to the editor.

The proposed timeline is:

Book 3: Late October or early November.

Book 4: Late January or early February

Book 5: middle of next year, closely followed by the combined short story/novella anthologies.

Thursday, Oct 3rd, an update on Earth Prime's book three, "At War."
Image

I've recovered from a corrupted save of chapter five's final review and finished chapter six's final review. This marks the midpoint in the book. Tomorrow, I start the review of chapter seven.

I am on track to complete this last review next week. From there, it is formatting and a final read for publication at the end of the month of October.


Book two, "I am War," is doing well. Better than I had hoped.

Book One: "My Name is War."

I know I did not cause the failure of Dillon Dimensional Gate and the deaths of two people.

My boss does not want to hear it, and fires me while placing the Gates's failure solely on me.

I have a path forward to clear my name. All I need do is travel untold dimensional worlds and return with my mind intact, a feat only I have done, once.

Now, here is a secret about my short stories and novels: They are all set in the same universe, and many utilize characters from my novels.

"Finder" from "Ghosts of Malta" takes place in the middle of Book Three of my novel series, AT WAR. I am currently in the final read-through before formatting "AT WAR" for publication in late October or early November.
My first short story, "Finder" in "Ghost's of Malta" https://amazon.com/dp/B09YL22XTK

"Precursor" in "Knights of Malta" takes place about six decades before "My Name is War." It fills out the back story of a main character.

"Family Matters" in "Falcons of Malta" happens about three years before "My Name is War." It covers the convalescence of my main Character's brother-in-arms.

"Drover" in "Space Cowboys" takes place roughly 1100 years after the Fifth book in my series, "A War to End It All." It tells the story of the descendant of my main character's best friend.

"One Way Out" in "Space Marines" happens at the tail end of my fifth novel, "A War to End It All." It follows a CSM as he makes the difficult decision to stay in or leave the military as he relates the story of his last action to the Admiralty.
