Out with the old, in with the new… After the year we’ve all had, I felt like it was time for a fresh start! It’s been a while since I posted to my blog here, so I wanted to take a moment to share what I’ve been working on with everyone.
First of all, I decided to reexamine my currently published books and rearrange a few things. When I first wrote Devil’s Due, it was intended to serve as a prequel to Tokyo Black, the first Thomas Caine novel. Later, I added to the story with Cold Kill, another prequel set between those two books.
When I launched the Rapid Fire series, focusing on Caine’s early years with the CIA, I thought it made sense to put those books together, since they were all short, action packed novellas and they were all prequels. But over the years I’ve noticed a lot of readers get confused about the reading order of the books. I try to make them as stand-alone as possible, but I know some people really want to read them in the “correct” order. And the fact that the books jump around in time made that difficult.
So as I said… time for a fresh start!
Moving Forward, Devil’s Due and Cold Kill will remain in the main series as prequels. And the Rapid Fire series will focus solely on Caine’s early missions with the CIA Special Activities Division.
And to celebrate, I’ve given them brand new covers, to keep the look consistent… Feast your eyes on these gorgeous new duds!
But that’s not the only new change coming. Next time I’ll fill you all in on another important development. Until then, stay safe, enjoy life, and thank you for reading!
