Surprise! A new Titan Mage short story in Giant Stompin’ Robots!

by Leave a Comment

Hey, y’all! 😄 This short story’s been turned in so long that honestly, we forgot about it until Raconteur Press told us the anthology was out. 🤣 That said, if you’ve been jonesing for more Titan Mage, check out Giant Stompin’ Robots, edited by our good author pal James Young: https://amzn.to/3YF2aJQ

READ GIANT STOMPIN’ ROBOTS HERE

It’s got a bunch of kickass giant robot stories in it, but it especially has a new Titan Mage short by Jacob titled “Once a Titan Mage,” which basically boils down to “What if John Wick, but with a giant robot?”

Also, if you haven’t read it yet, I’ve got a story in the companion volume Giant Freakin’ Robots: https://amzn.to/40oP6cW

READ GIANT FREAKIN’ ROBOTS HERE

“I’m in Love with a Helicopter” involves transforming helicopter mechs and epic battles with air pirates … but is ultimately inspired by that one Armored Core VI tutorial that kicked my butt so many times I developed Stockholm Syndrome and started to love it. 🤣

Speaking of which, I gotta show off this review from Tangent Online, which loved the entire anthology … but especially loved Rion, Sevas, and Jenny’s adventure: https://tangentonline.com/print-other/giant-freakin-robots-edited-by-james-young/

Once my stock comes in, signed copies will be in the mail to Titan Mage+ tier subscribers on the Patreon, so if that’s you, be on the lookout soon! 😄

Blood Knight: Academy of Silence (#3) is out!

Book Cover for Blood Knight #3: Academy of Silence

READ BLOOD KNIGHT: ACADEMY OF SILENCE (#3) HERE

***

A mysterious elf librarian? A rambunctious dragonkin coach? A cold yuki-onna professor?

These monster girls are up to something!

J.B. Clarke and the lovely ladies of Broken Fang have killed five vampires in as many months, but their mission to free humanity from the bloodsuckers who control the world has only just begun—

—and it’s about to get a lot more complicated!

Three mysterious monster girls have arrived in the city of Chester Creek, and they’ve been poking around in all the wrong places. Are they potential allies or a new threat? No one can tell, but fortunately, Clarke’s team includes Sammy Eloise: a slime girl with a fondness for video games, cosplay, and poisoning anyone who gets in her way. They’ll need all her shapeshifting talents if they’re to unravel this latest conundrum!

But time is running out because dark forces are on the move. The Academy of Silence has dispatched a hunter to the region, and his arrival ushers in a deadly game of cat and mouse for Clarke and the women he loves.

But who is the cat, and who is the mouse?

The Academy hunter is an ancient vampire, trained and equipped to dispatch any foe—including blood knights! But Clarke is hardly defenseless; his skills have been honed, his team is ready, and magical boons have transformed him into a powerful weapon against evil.

The stage has been set, the battle lines drawn, and soon these two men will meet in a clash that will shape the future of the entire world.

WARNING: Blood Knight: Academy of Silence is a fun urban fantasy adventure with a healthy side of heat: devoted succubi, frisky werewolves, adventurous slime girls, seductive witches, and saucy language to match. (So don’t read it and then complain about the spice. Y’all know exactly what you’re getting into.)

Blood Knight: Scepter of Bone (#2) is out on Audible!

by Leave a Comment

I love waking up to messages from Royal Guard Publishing. 😁

Blood Knight: Scepter of Bone is now out on Audible, once again narrated by the amazing Jess Trepanier and Daryl Mayfield! Go put it in your ears!

LISTEN TO BLOOD KNIGHT: SCEPTER OF BONE (#2) HERE

A werebear at wits’ end? A necromancer in dire need? A bone scepter the vampires will kill for? Send in the blood knight to sort this mess out!


J.B. Clarke and the lovely ladies of Broken Fang have won their first victory against the vampires who secretly rule the world. But their fight is far from over. To defeat the vampires once and for all, they’ll need to rally powerful allies to their cause. But before they can do that, they need to make a name for themselves amongst the hidden underworld of monsters, mages, and vampire slayers.

Clarke makes a deal with the Coven of the Ashen Flower: his services as a blood knight in exchange for a steady stream of work. The coven agrees and assigns him to Ixia Grey, a young witch and aspiring esports player. Ixia proves to be a deft hand at lining up jobs for Broken Fang, and Clarke soon finds himself up to his elbows in monsters to slay—

—and fat paychecks to earn.

But all is not well in the city of Chester Creek. The vampires have unleashed a terrifying new monster, one more powerful and deadly than anything Clarke has ever faced. A ghostly killer now roams the shadows, an embodiment of fear and death that shreds its victims’ minds as it drains their bodies.

But Clarke is a blood knight, heir to the greatest line of vampire slayers who ever walked the Earth, and he will face the coming darkness no matter what form it takes.

WARNING: Blood Knight: Scepter of Bone is a fun urban fantasy adventure with a healthy side of heat: ravishing succubi, submissive werewolves, cosplaying slime girls, flirtatious witches, and saucy language to match. (So don’t read it and then complain about the spice. Y’all know exactly what you’re getting into.)

A P-Con Update! (Sadly, Jacob had to drop out. 😔 Edie’s still going, though! 😃)

by Leave a Comment

Hey, y’all. Jacob was excited to be one of the Guests of Honor at P-Con 2024 – so it’s with heavy regret that he has to drop out this year. 😔

The TL;DR of why is:

Jacob suffers from chronic nerve pain. A procedure back in June was supposed to alleviate the pain, but didn’t … and long story short, we’ve spent the entire summer just *waiting* for other potential solutions to be approved.

He’s found some minor ways to make it day to day, but ultimately his nerve pain’s so bad right now that he can barely sit through his drive to work – which makes con-level activity impossible.

Thanks for understanding, and he hopes to be able to see y’all at a future P-Con.

However, I’m still coming, and I’ll be bringing ~ extra hijinks ~ with me to compensate for Jacob’s absence. (And y’all know how many hijinks I have on me already. It’s gonna be wild. 😁)

One such compensation is this fun bit of nonsense – i.e. a last-minute ✨ P-Con Exclusive ✨ bookplate hand-drawn by me. (So fancy!) The finals will all be signed by Jacob and available for the grabbing at our book table.

More hijinks to be revealed! 😁 In the meantime, if you’d still like to meet me, hop on over to P-Con’s website and grab your tickets!

They’re bestowed by Dragon Con, one of the biggest cons in the US. Titles released between July 1, 2023 and June 30th, 2024 qualify for this year.

NOTE: You can only nominate a title in one category; if you nominate it in more than one, neither counts (which is why you’ll often see authors telling readers to nominate books in specific categories).

***

Here’s what I’m nominating this year (or considering, ‘cause some are tied right now).

BEST SCI-FI NOVEL:

  • The Queen’s Fixer by Kacey Ezell
  • Disquiet Gods by Christopher Ruocchio

BEST FANTASY NOVEL (Including Paranormal):

  • Lord of a Shattered Land by Howard Andrew Jones

BEST YA/MIDDLE GRADE NOVEL:

  • Death Lord Arcanist by Shami Stovall

BEST ALTERNATE HISTORY NOVEL:

BEST FANTASY NOVEL:

  • I Power Up with Every Monster Girl I Defeat! (Monster Girl Tamer #1) by Edie Skye and H.P. Holo

*Is it actually the best fantasy novel we’ve written this year? No, that’s Blood Knight: Vampire Slayer, but I think it’d be hilarious to be nominated alongside all the Vry Serious Fantasy.

BEST ILLUSTRATIVE BOOK COVER:

  • Blood Knight: Vampire Slayer (book by Edie Skye, cover art by Yanai)

HEY, Y’ALL! 😀 Royal Guard Publishing, Jess Trepanier, and Daryl Mayfield are back, this time with the audiobook adaptation of Monster Girl Tamer #1: I Power Up With Every Monster Girl I Defeat! 😄

LISTEN TO MONSTER GIRL TAMER #1 HERE

I Power Up With Every Monster Girl I Defeat!

Monster Girl Tamer #1

Written by Edie Skye

Narrated by Jess Trepanier & Daryl Mayfield

Published by Royal Guard Publishing

***

A red hot, fiery demon girl. A goblin girl obsessed with wood. An oni girl who loves to grip a big sword. And they’re going to help him save the world … how?

Axel Hunter Radcliff has trained his whole life to be a hero. Once every generation, someone in his family is called upon to be a Chosen One, and Axel’s prepared himself extensively, just in case it’s him.

He just wasn’t prepared for the portal.

Now he’s in another world brimming with dangerous monsters beneath a sky full of magic portals … and with no idea what he’s been summoned to do. All he knows is that every Chosen Radcliff has been aided by a support staff of skilled women: a tactical harem.

When mysterious monster girls start wreaking havoc in this new world, Axel is ready to answer the call. He’ll have to draw upon insight borne from every tabletop RPG he’s played and every harem novel he’s read to face them, because these are either the women he’s destined to gather … or the force he’s been summoned to stop.

Either way, these monster girls need to be tamed!

WARNING: Monster Girl Tamer is a fun LitRPG fantasy adventure with a healthy side of heat: sensuous demons, lustful goblins, voluptuous oni, and saucy language to match. (So don’t read it and then complain about the spice. Y’all know exactly what you’re getting into.)

We’re going to be Guests of Honor at P-Con!

by Leave a Comment

Hey, y’all! 😃 If you’re on the Patreon, you’ve already heard, but if not:

Jacob and I are set to be Guests of Honor at P-Con in Fort Worth, TX September 20th-22nd!

The con was a bit delayed in getting its updates off the ground due to staff health issues and whatnot, but relevant information is starting to come in.

Namely, that it’ll be held at the Holiday Inn DFW Airport South, and the room block is now open! 😄

P-Con’s an itty-bitty new con – and small cons are my favorite because they allow me time to actually hang out with readers rather than spend all my time rushing from panel to panel.

Most importantly, though, it’ll be the furthest west we’ve gone thus far. 😮 (Usually we stick close to home for East Coast cons.)

That said, if you’re on the western side of the US, it’s a perfect chance to meet us in person! 😄 I look forward to hanging out with as many of you as I can. 😊
