If you buy paperbacks anytime between now and Nov 1st from my website, I'll sign them. Normally I only sign hardbacks.
Get 'em!

Have you seen the recent full Moon?
Her reflected glory reminded me of this week's need to reveal my next novel title.
As you may know, Mission to the Stars book 2 launches 2027 from @EnclaveBooks .
Title reveal in three ... two ... one ...
🌑🌘🌗🌖
The Moon Will Not Give Light
Go therefore. Save the space.
Book 2 returns us aboard the good ship Alpha Omega, led by my friends, Brock and Alicia Rivers, as they launch their first missionary journey above the circle of Earth … and into the dark domains ruled by the secular regime CAUSE.
Just this past April, the world held its breath while Artemis II astronauts orbited our satellite. That very month, I was finishing this next story.
Now I can’t wait to launch The Moon Will Not Give Light into this world, and possibly to lands beyond.
(Still running tonight: our special cosmic promo. To see this, simply gaze into the shadowed sky.)
Join the Book 2 Cover Reveal Crew and/or Novel Launch Team!
Of course, every novel launch needs a crew, starting with the cover reveal. Want to join this reveal crew and Launch Team? If so, here's the recruitment form:

Ask me anything. (Except for how we ever managed to arrange that perfectly timed partnership with NASA and the Artemis III mission. Can't talk about that one.)
Lots of folks are concerned about growing sharia law.
Consider a scary notion: What if the caliphate won?
That's the premise of my friend @KerryNietz's novel A Star Curiously Singing, DarkTrench Saga book 1. This is a dystopian sci-fi unlike any other, set in a future ruled by the Abduls. These men master the people with one-world Islamic law, and they control their own debuggers with implants that punish "sinful" thoughts.
Then one debugger, one Sandfly, discovers a broken robot that offers a strange message from beyond.
And it seems A-Cubed has not abandoned this land.
I discovered Kerry's books long after I'd begun early work on what would become my own sci-fi novel. Above the Circle of Earth (from @EnclaveBooks) explores a different and closer timeline for our future. In this 22nd century, Christians, Muslims, and all other religious believers are siloed into legal preserves on Earth. Instead it's the secular humanists who govern the Earth and all the solar system without challenge ...
That is, until a certain Christian exile on Mars, Brock Rivers, finally starts that missionary outreach he's dreamed about. Not on Earth. But in other lands.
Brock and his people must fight plenty of enemies:
- the watchful secular technocracy of CAUSE,
- other Christians, happy with the preserve system,
- and just maybe some caliphate-prone peoples.
Two great titles. Both engaging with Christianity/Islam. And both well-suited for thoughtful readers who love tales of faithful humans struggling in hostile worlds.
Oh. Plus today, Kerry, @ztrussell, and I chat about false religions taking over the world in our new podcast episode from @Lorehaven: lorehaven.com/podcast/330-wh…

EXCLUSIVE 🪩
Greta Gerwig’s Narnia: The Magician’s Nephew is a rock inspired fantasy nodding to David Bowie and The Who.
“Narnia is literally a world made out of music,” she tells Empire. “Rock’n’roll to me felt like a world made out of music.”

I'm just getting back from a trip, but last call before I forget.
Witch of Hobomock Pass late pledges will end whenever I have time to sit down and click the buttons. Last chance to get in the first group to get your hands on the book when it first releases (hopefully January).

"A sheer powerhouse of a debut, Before the Blades Fall is simply striking… from its character work to its world-building, not to mention Rawlings’ prose which is purely exquisite. This will be up there with Myles Lyon’s The Price of Fear for my debut of the year."

I’m thrilled to announce that tomorrow The Pendragon Cycle will begin streaming on @PrimeVideo here in the US.
Watching our show become the #1 Fantasy Series on Prime Video across Europe with virtually no marketing has been enormously gratifying.
We believe we made something beautiful and good, and we're thrilled The Pendragon Cycle will now reach an even bigger audience in America.

Weird being on the other side of things and asking, but anyone interested in sitting down and having a chat - maybe about adult fantasy… maybe about my children’s debut coming out 9/29… or about graphic novels and manga… or just books, video games, TV, and movies?

You can actually STILL back the Kickstarter!
Most tiers are still open for a few weeks despite the main campaign period having ended. 😁
