i was going to post a comment asking why you would charge money for the first book and not the second one. I see you thought of that though. If you still have a copy ill take it. And just in case you do i'll get the sequel. thanks alot vlad_son_of_devil@yahoo.com
Hello Quazi. No, Cadman's Gambit is the first book. The Resurrection of Deacon Shader was a sort of forerunner of the series.
I decided to drop it and start the series again a few years ago as I was no longer happy with the style. Some readers seemed to really like the style of Resurrection, though, so I left it out there as an earlier version of the story of the first three books of the Shader series.
Naturally, though, the story evolved a lot in the new version and is in many ways unrecognizable. If you haven't started the books yet, I'd recommend leaping straight in to Cadman's Gambit. Let me know if you would like me to send you a Kindle copy. All the best.
I would love win copies of your book.Thanks

ReplyDeleteI am just wondering if The Resurrection is really the first book?
