Title Reveal: Volume 1 of The Cendrillon Cycle
I am the very worst at titles. The very, very worst. I just can’t bring myself to slap a title on a work until it’s completely finished, which, as you may imagine, makes marketing ahead of time a little bit difficult. BUT…
…at long, long last, Volume 1 of The Cendrillon Cycle has a title!
The Battle of Castle Nebula ebook will be available for preorder very, very shortly, and will make worldfall on the first day of winter: December 21st, 2014.
She has nothing left, not even her dreams. But Elsa Vogel still has her duty, and she will do it, no matter the peril, no matter the anguish in her heart as she leaves her ravaged home planet, perhaps never to return.
And the same tragedy that tore Elsa’s life to pieces also transformed the lives of others. Others who may need a reason to go on living, after the cataclysmic Battle of Castle Nebula…

Available for preorder: The Battle of Castle Nebula
So apparently when I said that The Battle of Castle Nebula, volume 1 of The Cendrillon Cycle, would be available for preorder soon...it was already up. I got the good news via a friend who had already preordered her copy.
Preorder yours today!
I think the book would look pretty snazzy on your Goodreads shelf too, personally. Think about it...

Now Available in Paperback: The Battle of Castle Nebula
Great news! The Battle of Castle Nebula, Volume 1 in The Cendrillon Cycle, is now available for sale in paperback! The ebook is of course still available in Kindle and Nook.
I’m so excited to see this volume in tangible form, and I love how the wraparound cover turned out. Catching my first glimpse of that Quoth the Girl brand on the back was thrilling!
Unfortunately, the less-great news is that Volume 2 in The Cendrillon Cycle has been pushed back to a spring 2016 release. However, my goal is to simultaneously release Volume 2 on both Kindle and paperback.

The Star Bell: Now Available for Pre-order
This is not an April Fool's joke; I just have terrible timing. At long last, the next volume in The Cendrillon Cycle is available for pre-order! The Star Bell will launch in Kindle and paperback formats on May 27, and you can pre-order your Kindle copy now on Amazon. Go ahead and add it to your Goodreads shelf too!
Elsa Vogel has left her cinder’s life behind to sail with her companions aboard the Sovereign as it embarks on an exploratory mission. The crew’s destination is past the star bell, the last marker of civilization, into uncharted territory.
Elsa is determined to find out what lies beyond the star bell or perish in the attempt. But life aboard a Fleet frigate isn't at all how she dreamed, and old ties to the Tremaine Mining Company—and to her past on Anser—are not so easily severed.
Pick up the story where A Cinder's Tale, published in the internationally best-selling anthology Five Glass Slippers, left off! And don't miss the first volume in The Cendrillon Cycle, The Battle of Castle Nebula.
You may be wondering, why Volume III? What happened to Volume II? You've probably already read it. Here's the lineup:
The Cendrillon Cycle
Volume I: The Battle of Castle Nebula
Volume II: A Cinder's Tale
(published in the Five Glass Slippers anthology)
Volume III: The Star Bell
Clear as mud, no? But I thought it would be less confusing than someone reading The Battle of Castle Nebula and hopping straight to The Star Bell without knowing what happens in A Cinder's Tale.
Either way, I'm so excited for the upcoming launch of The Star Bell , and I hope you enjoy the story!
