Book 4 is now out.
Added 2021-12-28 14:21:39 +0000 UTCBook 4 is now available to buy with money or listen to or just read if you already have Kindle Unlimited. This time the editing should be a lot better, because we are trying to improve that aspect for the Kindle releases.
Not sure what else to say. There's a reddit post with some shameless self-marketing (buy Shirt's shirts!) and an exploration of potential subtitles that takes a brief and unfortunate detour in the direction of gay erotica.
Report any error corrections to editor@aethonbooks.com, not Amazon. Note that Australian English is not an error, which we had quite a lot of reports about with book three.

Just finished book 4. Well done!

2022-01-26 08:12:38 +0000 UTCI LOVE the new edits!! The conversation with Vermillion is especially interesting. I love how we got a better description of the outworlder who introduced “New Magic”, and how the EOA being a serious threat was better justified with their move on the wealthy. Also, the dialog felt less clunky.

2021-12-31 16:42:55 +0000 UTCYes next book starts in about a week I think? Or is that on RR. But very soon now

2021-12-29 18:57:13 +0000 UTCLoving it like I have loved the others and so glad you keep it unique and fresh not sticking to a standard progression.

2021-12-29 18:56:02 +0000 UTCHeath Miller nailed it again! Taika is one of, if not my favorite peripheral characters an d his voice was perfect. It’s hard to gauge how much content there really is when reading in serial form so I was surprised this one only got to the walk about. Thanks for your hard work!

2021-12-29 17:25:33 +0000 UTCJust one more week 🙌

2021-12-29 10:28:22 +0000 UTC14 hours in. Wife says I am ………. Will finish book tonight. Attorney in am. Whatever. All good. Bound to happen. (Just kidding about all but 14 hr in)

2021-12-29 02:10:45 +0000 UTCI think that’s the issue with publishing these web novel type/chapter by chapter type stories, one and two were incredible and 3 was kind of a dud. Four has been a blast so far but I’m really worried because there’s enough miserable sadness filled chapters to fill two books coming up. Might be enough to lose a lot of the people that just follow the amazon side of things.

2021-12-29 01:07:16 +0000 UTCThanks for making the last two weeks till new chapters easier to swallow

2021-12-28 19:00:44 +0000 UTCI've spent the last few weeks looking forward to the audible release strictly to hear taika. Haven't listened yet so this comment got me even more excited.
2021-12-28 18:04:26 +0000 UTCI will have to reread it. I have the same recollection, but it may do better without the pauses.

2021-12-28 17:43:56 +0000 UTCI somehow remember the earth story arc to be a bit weaker compared to the rest, but maybe that's just my bad memory. I'm half way through and I must say the interactions with Jason's family is some of the best work by shirt. Also the game of thrones thing got me good. I had forgotten that was there.
Burkhard Mittelbach
2021-12-28 15:52:40 +0000 UTCOMG. The Taika voice on Audible. It’s killing me, but I’m slowly (very slowly) getting used to it.
Robert Nugent
2021-12-28 15:47:00 +0000 UTCBeen listening since 3 am.

2021-12-28 15:30:41 +0000 UTCThe national religion in Australia is public holidays, so plenty of food and family, even for those who aren't religious. Also, it's bloody hot.

2021-12-28 15:10:40 +0000 UTCAllready about halfway through, and damm is it good!!!

2021-12-28 15:06:30 +0000 UTCGreat work as always shirt can’t wait for you to come back next month I hope you had a great holiday by the way how do Australians celebrate Christmas in the summer seems backwards to me no hate on you just an honest question

2021-12-28 15:05:20 +0000 UTCWhat happened with book three was that the wrong version was uploaded, and it had to be re-uploaded, then a bunch of people reported errors, many of which were just Australian English, not actual errors. It got to the point were Amazon flagged it for review and took the ebook down on launch day for several hours, which was less than ideal.

2021-12-28 14:43:26 +0000 UTCDoes Amazon punish books in its algorithm for errors reported through it's system? Seems like something they would do
w
2021-12-28 14:39:49 +0000 UTCDefinitely go through the publisher at editor@aethonbooks.com
Shirtaloon
2021-12-28 14:32:22 +0000 UTCThe first book of the spin-off will be a Jason/Humphrey/Clive triangle titled Jump & Jive
Shirtaloon
2021-12-28 14:30:59 +0000 UTCHey Shirt, is it fine to report errors in the book through amazons built in reporting system, or is it better to email the publisher about them? Not sure how well the built in report system is respected

2021-12-28 14:30:38 +0000 UTCDoes that mean jumphrey is a thing? I always knew but had to make the reference lol
