What’s Next (Henric’s Journey & Illustrated Editions!)

Hello, Tale Keepers!

I wanted to take a moment to say a massive THANK YOU.

The launch of the paperback omnibus has been absolutely incredible. I am blown away by the response over the last few weeks. Seeing The Stanhām Chronicles making its way to your bookshelves and into the hands of young readers has been a highlight of my writing career so far. Whether you bought a copy, shared a post, or told a friend about the series, I truly appreciate your support.

But the adventure isn't over. In fact, we are just getting started. I have two major announcements to share with you today about the future of the series.

1. The Adventure Continues in 2026

Many of you have asked if The Day of the Dragon was the end of the road for our heroes. I am thrilled to announce that a second five-part series is officially in the works for a 2026 launch!

The new series will pick up two years after the events of the first books. While the brotherhood remains strong, this new saga will shift focus to follow Henric’s story. I can’t wait to show you how he has grown and the new challenges he will face as he steps out of his brother's shadow.

2. Individual Illustrated Editions are Coming Soon

While the omnibus is a great way to own the whole collection in one volume, I wanted to create something special for readers who love visual storytelling.

I am preparing to launch individual paperback editions of Books 1 through 5. These aren't just the text—these special editions will be packed with art. Each book will include over 30 illustrations, bringing the characters, the battles, and the world of Anglo-Saxon England to life like never before.

Keep an eye out for those very soon!

Thank you again for making this launch such a success. It’s your enthusiasm that fuels these stories.

All the best,

– Kyle
