Both @timakers.bsky.social and @jeremyteg.bsky.social on this @fanfiaddict.bsky.social list. Will it be our last Daily Double of 2025? Will you read The Last Dragon Knight and Tower of the Tyrant before the year is out?

I'm pleased to announce that Baen has formally reverted the rights to Wraithbound. This means I'm free to start producing books two and three (once I write them, ahem). There are good things in the works, my friends. Good things indeed!
