CHRYSALIS Short Story - Now Free In Ebook & Audiobook | Plus More Audiobook News

, , , , , ,

The CHYRSALIS short story - originally published in the fantastic Beyond the Stars: Infinite Expanse anthology - is now available as a stand-alone ebook, FREE at all online retailers. And in a first around here, it’s also available on release day in audiobook! You can listen to the audio FREE here on the website, or grab it for $0.99 at most audiobook retailers.

The blurb goes like this: “In the cutting-edge laboratories of Asterion Prime, a new manner of life emerges: sentient artificial intelligence. But when the government responds by trying to shut down the AIs before they have a chance to flourish, one woman realizes she must do whatever it takes to protect this still fragile new life, no matter the consequences.”

But for AMARANTHE veterans, what you want to know is that Chrysalis tells the story of how the SAI Rebellion began. See Nika back when she was still an Anaden named Nicolette Hinotori. Meet her brother, Loshi, who we learned about in Continuum (he's quite a character; now that I've written him, I'm really sorry he's no longer around). With special guest appearances by: Maris Debray (then Idoni), KIR, Steven Olivaw, Magnus Forchelle and Corradeo Praesidis.

More news: I promised it would happen eventually, and now it has. The ECHO RIFT audiobook is now available at Audible and Amazon! Of course, as a reminder, it’s also available at many other audio retailers, often at a lower price. See them all here.

And as part of the continuing roll-out of all my audiobooks to non-Audible retailers, STARSHINE, VERTIGO and TRANSCENDENCE are now available at those retailers (and directly on the website at a discount) as well.

Thank you so much for all your wonderful reactions to Echo Rift. I think it’s a very special book, and I’m thrilled that many of you do, too. You’ll be happy to know that All Our Tomorrows is coming along nicely, with over 40K words written already. If you like, you can follow along with its progress in the righthand column on the front page of the website.
