Manzieri Omnibus Edition 2/5

A variant cover edition of fantasy space opera trilogy Bones of Starlight is now out and available for purchase through fine booksellers! This commissioned cover is by the internationally awarded Hugo-nominated Maurizio Manzieri, who has digitally handpainted covers for Aliette de Bodard, Clive Cussler, and many others.

On the cover is Soleil, the Princess Magus, with multivariant Dragons in a moment that belongs to one of the final scenes in the entire epic.

This is the omnibus, containing all three volumes of the trilogy along with the appendix: Fire Within, Abyss Surrounding, Greater Beyond, plus Learning Country. This is another birthday release with my imprint Primal Spiral (me), and I am 43 as of the fifth. 42 was a majestic science fiction year in my life, and I’m feeling super duper, peachy keen.

The text has been improved further yet, for a smooth reading experience, with the continued radiance of brilliance of all which remains important, which one may be joyed of the expectation. The other, still-available cover is by calligraffiti artist Leo Shallat.

It’s got its own ISBN, so one may collect variants for a while:
978-1-944416-23-2
It might take a moment to percolate through the system, but it should soon be independently available.
For now, I am accepting orders! $72 + shipping.

BEHOLD.

This story is especially amazing in its full form, much like myself. It features another painting by Seattle calligraffiti artist Leo Shallat, “Breaking Through.”

Reaching into the far interdimensions of an alternate universe, this trilogy became everything, and I’m proud to present it to you. The final notes of a celestial symphony, reverberating along another fractal as they spiral away, sparkle with light.

Here’s to the meaning of life, the universe, and everything.

Hardcover Omnibus

Here it is: Bones of Starlight in one tome – definitive and complete, one hardcover print volume with all three books, the appendix, and an additional word on poetic forms. This feels like a culmination! Featuring another gorgeous calligraphic painting by Seattle’s Leo Shallat. The cover:
