I'm very bloody excited to announce the release of my latest novel, the third and final book in the Jacques McKeown trilogy, Will Leave The Galaxy For Good!
Will Leave sees the hero of Will Save The Galaxy For Food and Will Destroy The Galaxy For Cash, ex-star pilot turned conman Dashford Pierce, still living in Ritsuko City and pretending to be Jacques McKeown, feeling the pressure from fans and publishers to write new books and with no idea how he's supposed to do that. Shortly, yet another series of disasters borne from his own bad decisions ensues, culminating in one last odyssey across space to find, confront, and beat the snot out of the source of all of his woes - the real Jacques McKeown himself.
This is absolutely the concluding book in the series. As for whether it's the last you'll see of Dashford Pierce, who the trac knows. As per my usual deal with Audible it's only available in audiobook form for now, and there's no set date on the print and ebook version just yet, but it'll have to be at least six months from now.
In the meantime, I'm streaming a live reading and Q&A on the Second Wind youtube channel tomorrow, meaning April 5th 2024, which will almost certainly be in the past by the time most of you read this, so here's a link to where the video's going to be:
Love the series; avid reader; hate audiobooks. I want to hate Audible for this arrangement but it occurs that maybe they were the horseshoe nail, or whatever. Was the deal a factor in getting you to write the books? If so, I'd hardly have cause for complaint.

ReplyDeleteI've recently read/listened to all 7 of your books, and I hope there's more DEDA Files coming. Thank you for the great reads
ReplyDeleteSad. I'd like a book, and I don't want this one to be the last. :(
ReplyDeleteWill Leave This Trilogy Where It Is" reflects a poignant decision to let a story rest in its current form. Embracing the trilogy's completion, it honors the narrative's natural conclusion without extending it unnecessarily. This choice preserves the integrity and impact of the original work, leaving a lasting impression on its audience.

Any news about when the print version's coming out? I tried emailing Dark Horse, but they didn't answer.
ReplyDeleteJust finished Book 3. Excellent end to a wonderful series. Heck of a way to wrap everything together. Only regret is didnt get a follow up on the earth president's daughter. Great arc for Daniel. Book 2 is still my favorite, but ZERO complaints about how it ended. Just wish there was more.
ReplyDeleteAlso recently finished DeDa files book2, again. Cant wait for more of that. Is that series going to be a trilogy or could we expect a lot more fro. The world of DeDa? I hope more.
Love your work. Davisham Derby Doctor Diablerie are two of my favorite characters in all of fiction. Looking forward to what's next.
