Hey guys, I finally finished writing it, and hoo boy it's a doozy! It'll be well over 1000 pages, at over 275k words written, this is nearly a trilogy in a singular book, and my longest yet. Part of me wanted to split it, but I realized too late that honestly after making folks wait more than six months, it wouldn't be great, and I also didn't have a great splitting point in terms of a climax for Clan Hart.
Overall, I'm rather happy with the book and feel like there's plenty of great excitement that happens with twists and turns in the story, and I'm thrilled to finally have it done.
Anyway, the wait is nearly over, and Book 9 is almost here!

Out May 27th! Forging the Crucible.
Blurb:
The traitors are broken. The real war has just begun.
Jake and Hearthtribe crushed the Obsidian Blades, exposing the rot within the Alliance. But executing a Divine Aspirant and saving a single world won't stop Tartarus.
To secure their empire before the War Trial begins, Hearthtribe must rescue three more dying worlds. While his forces battle parasitic insectoids and rogue necromancers, Jake takes on a divine-level engineering project: pulling a dead ocean world into orbit to make a world whole again.
The duel with Bree’s arrogant demigoddess sisters is still pending, getting between Jake and his Savage Forgemother. Fighting a massive war with Alliance nobles scrutinizing his every move, Jake must push his family to the absolute peak of the Second Tier. By crafting Mythic gear and forging new Hearthian Bonds, he just might unlock the secrets of divinity itself.
The War Trial is coming. It’s time for Clan Hart to plant their banner and claim their empire–or burn trying.
