Dear readers, a beautiful appendix has been fully crafted for us all to enjoy.
Coming in at a svelte yet well-built 70 pages, this contains all people, places, and terms present in the story dimension not exactly as in ours. It’s a little bit as though notes on these matters were gathered first-to-thirdhand from diverse perspectives and sources from within the chronology, possibly by Kao-Sidhe, and bundled into one organized trunk in the Vedani aetherscape, with an obvious multiplicity of contributors.
I am, in our world, the one who wrote it, yes. I took on this task because I myself have adored a fine appendix, and Bones of Starlight was built with a mountain of juicy tidbits.
This will be available to purchase on 7/14/24, July 14 Bastille Day, as it was with 3: Greater Beyond. Contact me personally via social media or through the site email form for a direct or autographed copy or set, or find it through your bookseller with the ISBN above via Ingram Distributors.
I once bought a chapbook Index for a work of fiction I hadn’t read, because it was intentionally artistically produced, and reading an out-of-context index to someone’s favorite work felt delightfully and poignantly non-sequitur. So if you ask, Does it stand on its own? my thought is, if you think it could. For Lovers of Worldbuilding.
I hope this will be a joyous addition to complete anyone’s individual volume trilogy set. It costs almost as much as a novel, but not quite. It’s a jacketed hardcover and will sit nicely next to the original full set of volumes. The cover art is also by the zesty trilogy cover art painter @leo.shallat (IG & TikTok).
Do I want to add the Appendix to the free version hosted on this website?
Yes.
