Pre-Orders for Mother of Learning e-book

Hello, my dear patrons. I'm making this post to notify you that Mother of Learning Arc 1 e-book is available for pre-order on Amazon. You can find the book on the following link

The book will be available for buyers on December 1st, and I will make another post then to announce that, but I figured some of you might be interested in pre-ordering the book so here you go. 

The audiobook will be available on Audible on the 21st of December, narrated by Jack Voraces.

Paper edition of the book will be available later, but I can't give you too much information about that yet.

I don't know about you, but this is pretty exciting for me. Check out the link even if you're not interested in pre-ordering, to see what the cover art looks like. I'm biased, of course, but I think it looks nice.

Comments

\o/ I'll be posting an announcement about the book being available for sale later today, but for now: congratulations. I hope you enjoy it.

Got the kindle edition! https://i.postimg.cc/p2r5ygCX/CDDA13-E5-34-CD-4162-A9-CF-9493-be-C4-F943.jpg?

Congrats! So glad to see you were able to make it happen.

It's fully edited yes. The story is still the same and text changes are light - some added sections and word changes to improve the flow of story, but otherwise I left the plot and scenes alone.

Domagoj Kurmaic

Very cool to finally see something published. Fully edited and revised, I presume. Nice also to see that what's already up won't be taken down, which is rare for Kindle releases. I'm definitely joining the Patreon, if only to have a book to lend people to read.

Green0Photon

Congratulations! It seems like it's been a long road, but glad to see it's finally come to fruition.

David Wild

Congratulations!! I will buy it for sure.

Very. Amazing.

Congrats!!! Cover art looks excellent, very dramatic & overall captures Zorian pretty well

Jonas Randa

Yes, absolutely.

Domagoj Kurmaic

I imagine you will post again when it is available in other places and in print?

Thomas Brusilovsky

Preordered, and will still buy a paperback.

Blue

I'm not sure about pre-orders, but the audiobook drops on December 21st.

Domagoj Kurmaic

When will audible pre-orders be up?

ah, i see. the "aka" approach does seem less confusing to me. i don't know how pseudonyms are traditionally dealt with.

JDG

Domagoj is my real name. The naming thing was done in order to not confuse people (since we assumed most of them have no idea who this 'Domagoj' person is) and in order to benefit more from search engine optimization, but ended up being really confusing to some people instead. We might end up changing it from 'writing as' to 'aka' in the end, it's still being weighted.

Domagoj Kurmaic

wait, should the author part of the cover read: "domagoj kurmaic, writing as nobody103"? or is domagoj also a pen name?

JDG

congratulations!!!

JDG

Congrats, you've written a very good book, and publishing in hardcover is a big next step!

Cover looks like Harry Potter and The Giant Time Turner 8)

Congrats! Been a patron for years and MoL was one of the first webnovels I ever read (along with Worm) and I'm glad to see one of them finally getting a proper release. Side note: have you ever thought about changing the order of the last 3 chapters? I just thought it'd be hilarious to have Jornak's Win chapter first compared to Zach's.

Ali Yang

I'm very hyped for the hard cover version, hopefully with a very thick cover too. Like old fantasy books I have. But I'd just be happy to get anything printed. My brother is not reading anything digital so it is the best opportunity to give it to him

Umut Numanoglu

Can't share that info, but I'm very happy with the deal I have with Wraithmarked. They've treated me very fairly, and went along with some very unorthodox ideas of mine (such as me insisting the story remains available for free and in full on RR and elsewhere).

Domagoj Kurmaic

Wooo, it's finally happening! Thanks so much. I will for sure be buying this (and all the arcs when available) and I'm psyched to have it on kindle legitimately! Also looking forward to the physical prints (when available) to pass on to friends and family who won't use ebooks.

Out of curiosity, and only if you are comfortable with sharing it but how much of the price do you actually get? (I've preordered in any case)

Simon

No problem. The story will come to platforms other than Amazon two weeks after its debut, meaning it should be available on 15th of December or thereabout. There will be a kickstarter for the physical edition. I will post more information when it becomes available here, or you can follow Wraithmarked's Kickstarter (https://www.kickstarter.com/profile/wraithmarked) since that's where it will eventually show up.

Domagoj Kurmaic

i think i will wait for the physical or when it goes out somewhere else than amazon, but the cover is amazing !

esteban albo

Excellent news. Congratulations!! Pre-ordered because this is a must-have! 😎

Orb chapters? You mean the palace globe / imperial orb?

Domagoj Kurmaic

Hardcover version is planned to happen. There will be a kickstarter campaign for those at some point. I'll post more when I have more info about that.

Domagoj Kurmaic

Nice. Preordered. I'd be happy to reread it again, but knowing that there have been parts expanded and edited will make it more than a reread. I'm really looking forward to it!

DiabolicalGenius

WOW Congratulations! This is so wonderful! Physical editions! AUDIOBOOKS? Official Cover art? Nice! I already hit pre-order on the e-book, will definitely get the Audiobook and Physical once their out too. Jack Voraces's voice sounds like it'll be almost a bit too dramatic for Zorian, but I'll definitely reserve my expectations until I hear it. Coincidentally, I finished reading MoL only just this month. I had originally been reading along releases until around Orb chapters, but hadn't finished the series until now. Marathoned the whole story over a couple weeks! It has really been inspiring.

You might want to wait until December 15th or so. The book is published only on Amazon for now, but it will eventually (as in, two weeks after its debut on Amazon) become available on other platforms. Some of which will have the epub version. I will be sure to post a link to those alternatives when the options becomes available, so just wait until then. You don't have to buy the wrong format just to leave the review on Amazon - leave a review on wherever you end up buying the story on. :)

Domagoj Kurmaic

I would love to have a hardcover version 🙂. But for now I'll just buy the epub when it's available

hell yea! Hyped for the paper copy, that's going on my bookshelf.

Calvin

Very nice cover art :) I'll buy it just so I can leave a review ^_^. However I cannot read it in kindle format. I would like to have it in EPUB format. Would you make it available for us Patrons?

Dario

Congrats! The cover art is amazing!

Autochthon

The book will be initially only available on Amazon, but after two weeks it will be available elsewhere too. So you should be able to buy it on December 15th or so, if I understood things correctly.

Domagoj Kurmaic

Any thoughts on an official epub release? I read on Apple Books instead of Kindle so and would love to buy/get an epub that can also support you

Ahmed Halat

Hype! I'm conflicted- MoL is a story I want on my bookshelf so while I wouldn't mind buying it as an ebook, there is a mention that paperback is in the pipeline so I kinda wanna wait for that to jump on. Still wont stop me gushing that this story is available to buy to other peeps elsewhere though

Keifru

I didn't even think of that possibility, lol. But yeah, I've heard of a few stories that suffered that fate. I'd love to say that would never happen with me, but you know. You never know what the future will bring.

Domagoj Kurmaic

Arc 1 is the existing Arc 1 as seen on RR and Fictionpress. So chapter 1-26. This will sadly not be possible for all of then. Specifically, Arc 3 is way too long. :/ By current estimations, the story will have to be split into at least 4 parts... so this is the plan I'm currently going with.

Domagoj Kurmaic

No, the events are all the same and there are no side stories. In general, I am fairly happy with how the first arc turned out, so I saw no need to alter it too much.

Domagoj Kurmaic

Awww yeah. Pre-ordered!

Hell yeah. I love it when authors release their works to official publication. No more will we be held in tyranny of the author throwing a hissy fit and deleting all of their work (Devourer Of Destiny, I am looking at you).

Terry Stevens

Wonderful. Thanks so much for letting us know. Out of curiosity, how many books do you expect it to take for the whole story to be released? Alternatively, how many chapters of the story is the first book? :)

Corwin Amber

Pre-ordered! Are there any plot changes? You mentioned in the progression fantasy sub Reddit that some sections have been expanded on and word choice is different but are there any different events or side story lines?

Tom

YES!

Armo

Hell yeah. I don't have any spare money but I'm hyped.

Fantastic! What a big moment. We're proud of you!
