DRAGONTIARNA: WARDEN rough draft done!
I am pleased to report that the rough draft of DRAGONTIARNA: WARDEN is done at 118,000 words!
Next up is THE FIRST SORCERESS, a bonus short story I will give away for free to my newsletter subscribers when DRAGONTIARNA: WARDEN comes out. THE FIRST SORCERESS will be a preview of what my next epic fantasy series will be about, which means that I have decided what will happen in my next epic fantasy series. Or I will have once I start actually writing THE FIRST SORCERESS. 🙂
Anyway, part of the reason is it took so long to write DRAGONTIARNA: WARDEN is that it had nine – nine! – point of view characters who all had significant scenes. So just to amuse myself, I thought I would total up all the characters in the DRAGONTIARNA series who had POV scenes.
The total came to 23 characters. 23!
I think for a change of pace CLOAK OF BLADES will have Nadia’s perspective alone. 🙂
Meanwhile, the POV characters of the DRAGONTIARNA series!
1.) Ridmark Arban
2.) Tyrcamber Rigamond
3.) Third of Nightmane Forest
4.) Niall of Ebor

16.) High Priestess Taztaloria
17.) Valeria Tempus
18.) The Warden
19.) Mhalkhor
20.) Dagobert Rigamond
21.) Brunhilda Tetrax

I absolutely cannot wait!
can’t wait, I have been spending my time re-reading the cloak series as I usually re-read the characters who’s next novel will be released but I have recently read them from start from finish last time then went onto demonsouled/wraith series back to back (was gong to start comparing you to George R.R. Martin and suggest you call your next book “winds of winter” even thou you are quick firing the novels out. Please keep producing the Shield Knight and Dragontiarna series as Ridmark Arban is the main reason I started reading your books in the first place and since you introduced Dragontiarna series into that storyline then the standalone Malison series I have gotten into them as well thou re-reading the books I can’t help notice some mistakes so maybe you should download Grammarly – Grammarly.com if you arean’t using proof readers and editors (only constructive criticism, you are still my favourite author until George gets his finger out and finally releases the long awaited game of thrones sequel 😉 since my plea’s of releasing a Dragontiarna novel and a Shield Knight novel side by side have gone unnoticed I will console myself with your latest offering of the Warden (still have my fingers crossed that Ridmark goes back to being the Dragon Knight for his confrontation with the warden)
with fond regards
