As we near The Thief’s release, I want to draw your attention to a new option for saving money. Amazon Kindle gets all the attention, but Google Play has really upped their game when it comes to ebooks (and audiobooks!) lately. If you buy my ebooks through Google Play, you can (1) get a bundle discount by purchasing 3 or more books at a time or (2) subscribe to the series and never have to worry about ordering the next book again (while also getting a discount). You can subscribe to the individual novels here, the collections here, and the audiobooks here (there’s a link to just purchase a bundle right under the subscription button).

Big News: The Thief Has a Release Date

Big News: The Thief Has a Release Date

…In which Eren follows a hunch one afternoon and wanders off, lands 135 megaparsecs from Concord space, meets a perplexing species as old as the Anadens, and gets tangled up in a nefarious murder mystery - and that’s just the first day. Bar fights and explosions are also rumored to occur, because where Eren wanders, chaos usually follows. Mr. Jennsen, first reader and relentless truth teller, has proclaimed The Thief “the most fun book” I’ve ever written. Considering that was my goal, I’m pretty stoked to see if you all agree with him.

THE THIEF will be released on *** FRIDAY, MAY 31st *** in ebook, hardback and paperback. You can order the ebook from your favorite retailer right now: PREORDER THE THIEF

The Thief Cover Reveal, Plus the Best SciFi Sale of the Year

You’ve waited long enough to see this positively kick-ass cover for THE THIEF, haven’t you? I think so. I’ve also got an expanded blurb for you. I can’t wait for you all to come along for the ride as our favorite ex-anarch bites off more than he bargained for….

I’ll be announcing the official release date very soon (May/June), but you can pre-order the book today at your favorite retailer.

 * A stand-alone adventure set in the Amaranthe universe *

The Hesgyr are thieves. “Scavengers,” to hear their victims tell it; “repurposers” by their own reckoning.

As Chief of Intelligence for Non-Anaden Affairs, Eren Savitas’ job is to protect the Advocacy from all manner of alien threats: sabotage, assassination, insurgency and, way down the list, theft. So when he spots a Hesgyr running off with valuable technology, he follows the alien home—and discovers a civilization unlike any he’s ever encountered.

Yes, the Hesgyr are thieves. But they are also being hunted. Systematically exterminated by an insidious enemy they can’t see, touch or find. Eren finds himself drawn ever deeper into the Hesgyr’s fascinating yet labyrinthine world as he races against time to solve the mystery of the deadly attacks. What he discovers is a complex web of loyalties and betrayals, of grudges and grievances millennia old—and beneath it all, a secret that may hold the key to the survival of more than one civilization.

The Thief is a humorous, pulse-pounding sci-fi adventure about alien culture clashes, the flaws and foibles that transcend species, and the satisfaction that comes from breaking all the rules to save the day.

* A stand-alone adventure set in the Amaranthe universe *

“Can I ask where we’re going?”

“Someplace safe…as safe as anywhere on this broken, fallen world can be.”

A first contact encounter isn't supposed to kick off with a dead body.

Ambassador Marlee Marano has been dispatched to Belarria as part of a Concord initiative to meet new species and build alliances. But when an assassin murders her counterpart in front of her eyes and takes her hostage, she is plunged into an alien world on the brink of collapse.

With no way to contact Concord or get offworld, Marlee’s only allies may be a shadowy band of rebels with a questionable agenda steeped in government conspiracies, mysterious genetic experiments and bloody historical grievances that threaten to boil over. The rightness of their cause is the least of her concerns, though, for she finds herself wanted for murder and hunted by all sides.

Medusa Falling is a heart-pumping sci-fi adventure that will take you on a roller-coaster ride of twists and turns as Marlee races to uncover the secrets and lies of a captivating but deadly alien culture and find a way home.
