New Book by Ciara Knight


Ciara Knight has now released two sequels to her first book, Weighted; Escapement and Pendulum.  These great books are available from Amazon.com in paperback or ebook.
Haunting memories. Terrifying dreams. Crippling lies. Trapped in a world of deception, my sanity rests with the love of Ryder Arteres and our renegade friends. Six months of scouring the ocean floor in a rebel ship fleeing our homeland, delivers us to a possible alliance with the opportunistic European Council. Our only hope is to utilize our forbidden gifts to free our people from slavery, proving our worth. But when a trusted ally turns traitor and a new breed of the queen’s weaponry is revealed, I’m forced to face the terror of my past to save our crumbling future.

David Talks About Plans for Books 4 & 5

David's first 3 books, A Whisper in Space, Big Damn Love Story, and The Chancy Cargo, have done well.  Bow David looks ahead to books 4 & 5 in this exclusive release:

Book 4
Book 4 is in the works, and while I originally intended for an August release, I might miss that target.  In book 4, Miles is going to repay a favor to Ah Lam, by working to help her find her family.  It will turn out to be an arduous endeavor fraught with peril.  Other ongoing plot lines will be continued, with some new ones being introduced as well.  The working title right now is "Ah Lam's Quest."

Book 5
This book is goign to be a little bit different.  I've found that some of my readers really like it when I write in the first person.  The first person introductions to each book have been well enjoyed.  Meara's story from Book 2 and Miles' retelling of his time with Kaivo in book 3 were very well liked.  So in book 5, I've decided to make it a collection of short stories about the different characters in the series, Colorado, Taro, Mina, Ah Lam, Miles, Zhiyuan, Zell, and maybe even smaller characters like Royce, Sabina, Boyd, Kaivo, and Meara may see their own stories.  Each of them will be first person naratives, and it will add a lot of flavor to each of the characters as you read about them in future books.

The idea came from a series of books for the Star Wars Expanded Universe.  The series included Tales of the Bounty Hunters, short stories about each of the bounty hunters we see on the deck of the Imperial Star Destroying in the Empire Strikes Back.  there was a Tales of the Cantina and a Tales of

Firefly RPG Releases in February---Special Promo

For those who love Firefly, a new RPG by Margaret Weis comes out in February.  If you preorder it through her website, margaretweis.com, you will get a signed bookplate.

This is exciting, and I cannot wait to start my own Firefly RPG gaming group.  While I don't know how compatible this new system will be with the old Serenity RPG system, both systems were published by Margaret Weis and it does sound like there is some attention being paid to that.

One improvement is that the Firefly Characters are licensed under this new product, meaning the game could include characters like Badger, Safron (or Yolanda or Bridget), Niska, Patience, and other favorites.

For those who love Firefly, my books are similarly themed Space Westerns.  Book 1, A Whisper in Space and Book 2, Big Damn Love Story, are bundled into a convenient 2 pack for $2.00.  Book 2, The Chancy Cargo, is also available at Barnes and Noble (for Nook) and Amazon (For Kindle)
