For this week's Waiting on Wednesday, I highlight an incredible upcoming science fiction novel with The Guerrilla Republic by @richardswanauthor.bsky.social. An epic sequel that has so much potential, I cannot wait to get my hands on this book.

August 2027!

It's the thought that counts

You are the map goat Tim, I'd do literally unlimited maps if they'd let me 😂

Pleased to report I have been acquired! 4 more Sova novels set 150 years after The Great Silence to end the entire 10 book Empire of the Wolf sequence (a standalone and a final trilogy).

Ah. An abortive attempt at a follow up to Art of War. I wasn't happy with it and after only a few months I depublished it. It's got some cool ideas I might cannibalise but it doesn't exist anywhere (except my brother in law has a printed copy). Must be 10 years out of print

This is arguably implied to be how things are run in @richardswanauthor.bsky.social 's The Infinite State

finished @richardswanauthor.bsky.social The Trials of Empire, an excellent trilogy that goes from medieval style fantasy with great political plots, to full on battles to try and stop demons unleashing hell on earth, outstanding 👍👍 + a truly believable evolving female narrator.

I recently reviewed the outstanding new science fiction novel from @richardswanauthor.bsky.social, The Infinite State. An exceptional and compelling novel with a complex plot behind it. This novel comes highly recommended, especially on audiobook.

Next book on my nightstand is @richardswanauthor.bsky.social's Steel Gods, Book 2 in the Great Silence series which definitely has surprised me a couple times.

- This series is a sequel to the world built in the Empire of The Wolf Trilogy, but does NOT require reading the original to follow along.
