One of them is called The Crimson Hunters. It’s far closer to Spark City than the Seven. It’s a furious, fun filled adventure romp with mercenaries, magic and demons.
So, there I was, building my new world and something unexpected happened mid-plan.
Some of you fukers started reading Spark City. More than that, you started telling people about it.
Out of nowhere, my first love came back to life.
And Spark City is my first love.
So, I was knee deep into finishing the Dellerin books so I could afford to pay my phone bill, pay rent, save up for a laptop that could play Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds when the abuse started. Oh, you beautiful fukers came at me sooooo hard. And I quote from any given day:
“When’s March of Magnus coming out?”
“What’s this shit? It’s not March of Magnus!”
“Look at this fuk, not writing the sequel!!!!”
“Fuk you Robert… when’s it out?”
“I know where you live… bitch.”
Good times. And I loved every one of the demands.
You guys were right!!!
Dellerin is not Spark. It’s something else entirely. And fuk me, its gonna be truly awesome when I finish phase one.
Oh, my god rob, get to the point!!!
Fair enough.
I didn’t do the Dellerin Tales justice. And it’s something which has bothered me all last year. The first Crimson Hunters collection was supposed to be three novellas. I abandoned writing book three because EVERYBODY wanted March of Magnus.
And you got it. And you all want Outcasts now.
And that’s cool.
I’m working on it.
Really fast.
But I digress.
A few months back, while March of Magnus was in review with my editors, I gave myself a few weeks off to game, to recharge. To just take a breath from the Four Factions. To escape the horrors of my laptop for a time. Obviously, Covid is still a dreadful thing and I couldn’t settle. Couldn’t relax. And I couldn’t move on to Outcasts until I’d finished off March of Magnus.
I think you might have deduced what I’m about to say.
Well, you are wrong.
It’s NOT a fan fiction release of Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds starring your boi bob in the rabid fields of Erangel. (I would drop everything in the world to do that. So don’t tempt me.)
I’ve gone and finished book three of Crimson Hunters. But, more than that, me and my editors have gone back in and torn book 1 and 2 asunder. We’ve given it a full remake from the ground up.
The Crimson Hunters is now one glorious, full length epic novel which we will be releasing next month!
I'll update you more next email, but finally feel I’ve done it justice. Tragically, I’m not allowed to triple charge you fuks for it. Ugh. Nothing is ever perfect.
