For those of you who've been waiting for the hardcopy, it's now available! As always, the quickest way to get it seems to be to order direct from Fandemonium, but booksellers like A/m/a/z/o/n Barnes and Noble, and your local indie should be able to order it for you if they don't have it in stock. Also, B&N listed the ebook under my name (and, I ( Read more... )

For those of you who have ereaders other than the Kindle/kindle software, epub and other versions of Allegiance are now available from Crossroads Press, Fandemonium's ebook partner.  I've had very good experiences with their customer service (they emailed me a link to download the corrected version of a book I'd bought from them before I'd even ( Read more... )

Huh!  The kindle version of Allegiance is up on Amazon now.  (See Zelenka's expression in the icon.  I have no idea how it happened, either, but I am not complaining!)

And Fandemonium is taking pre-orders for the paperback now, too!  The book is at the printers, and will ship as soon as it's printed and bound. 

OK, the official word is out!  We've received final approval from MGM, and Fandemonium will be taking preorders at the website starting November 17.  The ebook will be available on November 22.  It's almost here!

(And, once again, we all appreciate your patience.)

I mentioned in comments the other day that there were some fun scenes with Ronon and Rodney's cat, Newton, and was promptly asked if I could post a bit.  So...  Have a bit of Ronon plus cat, with a warning for some minor spoilers.

( Ronon's really not a cat person.... )

We have received the final approval from MGM!  Amy and I should see galleys from Fandemonium some time this week - galleys are the last chance to catch typos, etc. - and then it will be 3-4 weeks before the finished book is available.  The ebook may be out a bit sooner, and it will almost certainly be available before the print book - because there ( Read more... )

Amy and I have responded to MGM's comments and sent the ms. back to Fandemonium today.  So the book should be available in about 4 weeks, assuming there are no further changes and nothing  goes wrong.   I think we're finally back on track!

Amy and I have received MGM's comments on the first half of Allegiance!  It's mostly small stuff, detail fixes and continuity queries, so as soon as we get the rest of the comments, we should be able to turn the ms. around in a day or two.  And from there, it should be about 4 weeks before it's available!  I will keep you posted, but things are

The current word is that Amy and I will see MGM's final comments by mid-October.  That should mean that the book will be out around mid-November.  I don't anticipate any issues with the revisions - none of these delays have had to do with content, thankfully - and we've already started work on the one large-ish request, for a few paragraphs of " ( Read more... )

I'm sorry to say, but obviously we won't make the end-of-June publication date.  The manuscript is still at MGM, and no word on when we're going to get it. As soon as we do get approval, though, it will be about three weeks to get the books to stores.  How long after that it takes for retailers like Amazon to ship will depend on them.  There's been ( Read more... )
