‘The Separation of Briin’ available!

February 18, 2025 / K.I.S.

I am very pleased to announce the release of my second book, “The Separation of Briin”, a prequel novella to The Chronicles of Áitarbith.

It is currently available in ebook and paperback format on Amazon, and I shall endeavour to make it available on other platforms asap.

NB: Now available from this website.

The publication of this novella is quite exciting for me, as I had become distracted from Ata’s tale (while writing the second book in her trilogy, The Trials of Ata) and had to face the censure of my siblings (meh) and my readers (the horror!) — all ten of them thus far, anyway. At least now I have provided some fodder for the ravenous readers.

On that note, here’s a short book trailer to whet those appetites:

I am also currently recording an audiobook version of Assays, but it’s slow-going as I learn the tricks of the trade (no matter how haphazardly). Them’s the hard breaks when you’re on a budget and have to be the voice actor and recording specialist simultaneously.

Thank goodness for ‘The Green Workbench’ on Youtube — I cannot recommend his helpful videos on this (and many other topics) enough. If I ever manage to finish my DIY audiobook project, it will have been completely down to his practical and patient guidance.

Also of note is the updated map of Áitarbith (hand-drawn by yours truly) that is making its debut in “Separation”. Again: I shall update Assays‘ manuscript to include the new map as soon as I have the time.

That’s it for now; I have quite enough to be getting on with, I’ll have you know! Happy reading, and may your pillow always be cool and firm-but-soft-enough.
