Underland News: KU, Book Removal, Side-story
Added 2022-07-18 16:53:51 +0000 UTCHi guys,
Sorry, there won't be a Apocalypse Tamer Bestiary entry this Monday; my artist was delayed due to personal issues and thus I'm waiting for the next batch of pictures before updating the stat entries.
Otherwise, I have important news about another novel.
As you know, my horror/dark fantasy Underland was among my less popular stories and I ended up cutting it short to one volume; it was my hope that the novel would find a bigger audience on Kindle than on Royal Road, at least enough to justify writing more entries in that universe.
Well, the Amazon launch day is approaching fast.
I signed an agreement with the publisher Podium to bring that story to KU and Audible. However, Kindle Unlimited demands exclusivity on the platform. As a result, Underland's volume I - chapter 1 to 31 - will be removed somewhere between August 1 and 8 (the exact date will depend on the publisher and when I receive pre-order links) from both RR and Patreon besides a few early ones. The second volume will follow shortly afterwards.
As per their pledge, Dracolich Patrons can download the ebooks for free here before that date: https://www.patreon.com/posts/dracolich-free-48625485
On a more positive front, a patron commissioned me to write a small short story set in the Underland universe; namely Lord Bethor's rise to power. I've done the outlining and I hope to complete the side-story by August. It will take the place of the Bad Runs shorts I usually produce.
Best regards,
Voidy.

I think that the story had a whole Lot of potential but it was simply Moving to fast. Instead of 10 chapters training It would be 1 chapter. I felt the premise was great for world building and some side themes would've worked aswell, hope it finds a bigger audience on kindle
