General Posts moving to Author’s Blog

It has been brought to my attention – not that I actually missed it – that this blog is dedicated to the Demon Lord series, hence its name, and therefore I should post about general subjects and those pertaining to my other series, on my author blog: http://tcsouthwell.blogspot.com. Demon Lord was the first book I published as a paperback in South Africa in 2006, which is why I built a blog for it, but since then my other series, in particular The Queen’s Blade, have become more popular.

 

So I will continue to update this blog whenever I have news about the Demon Lord series: new books, promotions, etc., but in future I’ll post all general posts on the author blog. So if you’re following this blog for updates on all my series, please visit my author blog in future.

At the moment, I have wonderful news and I have to share it with everyone, even though it’s not about Demon Lord. This will be my last general post here. The Queen’s Blade and Slave Empire – Prophecy, have both been selected for Apple’s iBookstore promotion, Breakout Books, a major new feature just launched in the US highlighting several dozen books.

The New York Times covered the story at

Mark Coker (founder of Smashwords) mentioned my books here:

I’m gobsmacked and over the moon about this! I want to thank each and every one of my fans who has written a great review and made a positive comment about the books. This is all thanks to you, and I love you all the more for it! Thank you!

Best of Genre: Current Epics

I’m happy to announce that two of my books have made Amazon’s Best of Genre: Current Epics list. The Queen’s Blade is #23 on the list, with The Broken World sitting at #33.

A big thank you to all my fans – I couldn’t have done it without you! A special thanks to those who left comments on this blog about how much they enjoyed Demon Lord VII - that is so great to hear! To answer the questions posed: yes, I do intend to continue The Broken World one day, and The Cyber Chronicles, too. None of the series are finished, so there are many more books and adventures still to come!

I’m also pleased to add that all my books are now available from Lulu.com. I’ll be listing my books with other new distributors during the course of the next few weeks, so if you have a favourite distributor I’m not already listed with, please feel free to send me your requests and I’ll see what I can do.

Lastly, to answer the comment left about whether or not Demon Lord contains romance, the answer is yes, most definitely, it has romance in it.
