    Where to get print books for Last Strand, Elemental Assassin #19 …

    A couple of folks have asked why they can’t find print copies of Last Strand, Elemental Assassin #19, in their local bookstores. Well, the Last Strand print books are not stocked at your local bookstore because I am now self-publishing my Elemental Assassin series. I also self-published Venom in the Veins, book #17, and Sharpest Sting, book #18, so those books are not usually stocked in bookstores either. This is also why books #17-19 are the larger, trade paperback size rather than the smaller, mass market size of books #1-16.

    The vast — vast! — majority of print books available in stores are traditionally published books, and it is often very difficult for indie/self-published authors to get their print books stocked/shelved in bookstores. So this is why you can usually find my traditionally published books — like Kill the Queen — in bookstores, but not my self-published books — like Spartan Heart and the rest of my Mythos Academy spinoff series.

    Some bookstores will stock self-published books, but I have no way of knowing which stores, or how many copies of my books that they might have on hand. However, your local Barnes & Noble and indie bookstores can always order the print books. You can also order the print books online at Amazon and Barnes & Noble (see links below). Hope this helps.

    LAST STRAND PRINT BOOK:

    Booksellers and librarians can order print copies through IngramSpark.

    LAST STRAND EBOOK:

    LAST STRAND AUDIOBOOK COMING AUG. 10:

    Last Strand will be released as an audiobook on Aug. 10. So if you want to read the book right now, then you will have to get the ebook/print book.

    Why the audiobook delay? Well, Lauren Fortgang is a very popular narrator, and her schedule is booked up months in advance. I chose to wait for her to become available rather than have someone else voice Gin. I think everyone will agree that Lauren’s narration is worth the wait.

    LAST STRAND DESCRIPTION:

    I’ve battled a lot of bad guys in my time, both as Gin Blanco and as the notorious assassin the Spider. But I’ve never faced off against anyone quite as powerful and deadly as the dastardly leader of the Circle secret society.

    Just when I finally have a lead on how I can defeat the evil group once and for all, new information comes to light that throws me for a loop. Suddenly, everyone and everything I love is in imminent peril of being destroyed, and I’m racing against the clock to figure out a way to save my friends.

    The stakes couldn’t be higher, and the danger has never been greater. Somehow, I need to weave one last strand in my web of death—and kill my enemies before they kill me . . .

    THE ELEMENTAL ASSASSIN SERIES WILL CONTINUE:

    The Elemental Assassin series WILL CONTINUE. However, Last Strand will be the last full-length Gin Blanco book for a while, due to my writing deadlines on other books/projects.

    In the meantime, I am planning to write novellas about some of the Elemental Assassin secondary characters, like Lorelei Parker. But rest assured that I am planning to write more books about Gin in the future, as my schedule allows. Thank you for reading. 😎

    Audiobook for A Sense of Danger on sale today only, March 4 …

    The audiobook for A Sense of Danger, Section 47 standalone, is on sale TODAY ONLY, Thursday, March 4. Woot! I’m so excited to share the audiobook with listeners, and I hope everyone enjoys getting to know Charlotte, Desmond, and the world of Section 47. 😎 

    The sale price is $3.95, but that might vary, depending on which country you are in. You can also use Audible credits to purchase the audiobook.

    A Sense of Danger is an Audible Original book. That means that it is ONLY be available as an audiobook right now. I will be self-publishing the ebook/print book at a later date, probably in summer/fall 2021.

    A SENSE OF DANGER DESCRIPTION:

    A SPY…

    My name is Charlotte Locke, and I’m an analyst for Section 47, a secret government agency that tracks terrorists, criminals, and other paramortal bad guys who want to unleash their abilities on an unsuspecting mortal world. I have a magical form of synesthesia that senses danger and uncovers lies—making me a stealthy operative.

    I’m trudging through another day when one of Section’s cleaners—assassins—takes an interest in me. I don’t need my synesthesia to realize that he is extremely dangerous and that he will do anything to achieve his goals—even if it means putting me in the line of fire.

    …AND AN ASSASSIN

    I’m Desmond Percy, one of Section 47’s most lethal cleaners. I’m also a man on a mission, and I need Charlotte Locke’s skills to help me keep a promise, settle a score, and kill some extremely bad people.

    Charlotte might not like me, but we’re stuck together until my mission is over. Still, the more time we spend together, the more I’m drawn to her. But at Section 47, you never know who you can trust—or who might want you dead.

    A Sense of Danger is told in first person from the viewpoints of both Charlotte Locke and Desmond Percy. Helen Laser is the narrator for Charlotte, while Rupert Channing is the narrator for Desmond.

    As of right now, this book is a stand-alone adventure, although if it does well, then I might write some more Section 47 books.

    I hope everyone enjoys the audiobook. Happy listening! 😎
