WHAT, *ANOTHER* NEW BOOK RELEASE?!


All we were trying to do was push this book out a little early, so that Guy Stewart could have copies in-hand when he showed up at Minicon 57 next weekend.

This was quite possibly the fastest book launch we’re ever done. The Kindle edition went live in less than an hour. The Nook, Apple Books, and Smashwords e-books were live this morning, and new e-book vendors are coming online hourly.

The print edition was approved so quickly, it looks like we may have commercial copies from Amazon in-hand before the case of ARC copies I ordered from Ingram shows up. Thus we’ll have the opportunity to compare the Amazon and Ingram printings side-by-side, and decide which we prefer. In theory, releasing the print edition through Ingram gives us much wider distribution, including into bookstores. In practice, that rarely happens.

ENORMOUS THANKS TO DON MUCHOW, for going way beyond the call of duty and burning much midnight oil to make sure that this book got finished and released on time! THANKS, DON! 

P.S. And consider buying the book, okay?

P.P.S. One more thing: an audio book edition is in the works and should be available shortly. Guy and I talked it over, and decided that using Amazon’s AI to narrate a story about a bunch of teens fighting an evil homicidal AI bent on world domination was just too ironic an opportunity to pass up.
