From the blog of Nicholas C. Rossis, author of science fiction, the Pearseus epic fantasy series and children's booksExciting news!Β Pearseus: Vigil is finished! I now have to prepare the book cover and actually publish it, but in the meantime I wanted to offer a free Advance Reading Copy (ARC) to my blog friends. Anyone who’s interested in reading and (hopefully) reviewing it is welcome to a copy!

You may notice that this is now billed as Book 3, as discussed a month ago. Rise of the Prince is now Book 1, and Mad Water is Book 2. Schism has been rebranded as Book 0, or prequel to the series, and is no longer part of the bundle. I believe this makes more sense, but it means I have to redo all covers and republish the entire series. So, the official launch may have to wait for a few more days.

Anyway, just leave a comment below, and I’ll email you your free copy!

On a side note, it’sΒ my birthday (I’m turning 45), so if you’re looking for a great present, feel free to read andΒ review Runaway Smile! πŸ™‚
