Was GHOST IN THE RING the first GHOSTS book?
A reader emailed me this week:
“Really liked Ghost in the Ring! But the backstory for Caina seemed very detailed. Are there other books in the series?”
Why yes! Yes there are!
The very first book in the Caina series is CHILD OF THE GHOSTS. It’s free on all ebook stores, and it’s also a good long read – 100,000 words or about 5000 Kindle locations. It’s a complete story on its own, not a cliffhanger, and a good introduction to Caina and the world of the Empire of Nighmar.
After that, there are many more books. A complete list of THE GHOSTS and GHOST EXILE novels are below, in the proper reading order. The short stories are included in the list, but note that those are more like “bonus adventures” – you don’t need to read them to keep up with the main plot:
Child of the Ghosts
Ghost Aria (short story)
Blade of the Ghosts
Ghost in the Flames

Thank you for this updated book order list!
Also, THANK YOU for continuing to write The Ghosts series!
I know a good thing can’t last forever so each time I near the end of the latest book I’m afraid it will be the last. I’ve been following Caina’s journey for so long now her world is part of my life. You’ve created such an awesome world with great characters and I hope you still enjoy writing them as much as we love reading them!
Be well!
Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed all the books!
Caina’s definitely going to be around for at least 8 more books, and possibly more.
Perhaps you should consider adding a preface to Ghost In the Ring noting that it’s not the first book?
The list above reminds me why my kindle is sorta like driving across the United States. During the drive, you eventually hit Texas and it takes really a long time to get to the next state. Likewise, when I’m scrolling through the list of books on my kindle (in alphabetical order by author), eventually I hit Moeller and it seems like I’m scrolling for a really long time until I get to the next author. 🙂
Heh – it’s like typing Massachusetts into the GPS, which is a word I can never spell right with autocorrect or Google. Thanks for sticking around for all those books!
