Here's a little Gryphon Chronicles-themed fun to help celebrate our new release. Find out whether you're destined to be a Guardian, Empath, Witch/Wizard, or Medium. Enjoy! 

Hi Everyone,

Ta-daaa!!! Below is a sneak peek of THE BLACK FORTRESS. Oh, are we excited for you to sink your teeth into this book. It's been a long time in the making and now we are only a few short weeks away from the BIG release on November 1st!!!

We wanted to let you know that all 3 editions will be available at Amazon on release day: eBook, paperback, and hardcover. In-fact, if you like, you can CLICK HERE to pre-order the eBook and it will automatically be delivered to your kindle on the 1st. And for you audiophiles, we are expecting the audiobook to be ready early next year. 

Anyway, we hope you enjoy this 2 chapter sample. Just a short sneak peek as we gear up for the big day. Happy reading!

Hi everyone,

We are super-excited to announce that THE BLACK FORTRESS has just gone up for Pre-Order over at Amazon!!! 

AT LAST!! Woooohoooo! You can now purchase your e-copy, and it will automatically be delivered to your Kindle on the official release date of November 1st (aka, midnight on Halloween night for those keeping score—a little something to toss in on top of your newly-harvested Halloween candy!). We are incredibly excited. We thought this day would never come, but now the long wait is almost over. Thank you for your patience. We can’t tell you how eager we are for you to sink your teeth into this 650-page, 220,000-word monster of a book.

BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE.

We have other BIG news as well. And in all honesty, we’ve been a little hesitant to announce this because we’re not exactly sure how you’re gonna feel about it. We think you’ll love it, BUT… Well, here goes…

THE BLACK FORTRESS is NOT the final book in The Gryphon Chronicles series, after all. Although we had every intention of Book 6 being the grand finale, once we got three-quarters of the way along, we realized there was just too much story to fit it all into one book. So, there is going to be a Book 7, to be titled THE DRAGON LORD, that will come out in 2020. No long delays, lol. We promise! The Jake saga continues…

Soon, we will begin sharing some Sneak Peeks of the opening chapters of THE BLACK FORTRESS. Keep an eye on this blog! So excited for you to take your first look inside this twisting, turning story.

We hope you are as excited about all this as we are. Click HERE to pre-order your e-copy of THE BLACK FORTRESS. (FYI, you won’t see the pre-order button for Paperback/Hardcover yet, but those formats WILL definitely be available for you at the same time as the e-book – NOV. 1!) Thanks!

Starting this spring, Hachette Jeunesse is releasing The Gryphon Chronicles in French. How awesome is that?! This is the first foreign translation of any of our kidlit books. Check out the new LOST HEIR cover next to the original from 2012. Red the Gryphon is looking a bit more intense. AAARGH!!! Can't wait to see GIANT next. Fantastique! Love it...

Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas, and a happy, healthy, peaceful and prosperous New Year. Thank you for reading our books! We just received this wonderful illustration from one of our great readers, Gaby, from sunny Costa Rica, who created this Nativity scene from the one at the end of JAKE & THE GINGERBREAD WARS. She kindly gave us permission to share her artwork, and we couldn't wait to show it to you! I just love Archie peeking out from behind the stable! Here they're just waiting for one of the village infants to be brought in to play the Gryphondale Christmas pageant's Baby Jesus. :) Thank you, Gaby, and all the blessings of the season to all of our wonderful readers. Thanks for sharing the adventure with us!

Merry Christmas,
Gael & Eric
