Hello readers! I'm pleased to announce the release date of Book IV of The Legacy Incarnate: Incarnate Key will be October 31st -- Halloween! It will be available on the Amazon marketplace for $15.00.
I am also pleased to announce that if you purchase a copy of any of my books, I will send you an ebook version of that book FOR FREE. Just email me at sathorup@gmail.com with a picture of your book, and I'll send you the ebook!
I personally received an author proof of Incarnate Key so I could get a good idea of the final. As you can see, it has the key art I posted about a few years ago on the spine. I had to make some adjustments to text on the front and back cover after receiving this. The final will look fantastic!

The final copies will not have that

band across it! |
As well as containing the main story, it has an insightful Compendium that includes the following:
- Glossary
- Translations
- Pronunciation Guide
- About the Gospel of Zarem
- Magic-Making Classes
- Liberan Calendar
- Bonus Short Story: Convergence
- Bonus Excerpt from Book 3 of The Legend of Draconite: E'lsra
I've cleaned up the Glossary, and I've made the Translations section more concise and relevant to this story, which section previously included many of the elven and other translations throughout the series. The Gospel of Zarem and Magic-Making Classes sections are new sections, the latter of which I plan to keep in future LI Compendiums.
What's Next for The Legacy Incarnate
This book says at the end of the main story that the series continues in Book V:
Incarnate Truth. However, I will be releasing a different Legacy Incarnate book prior to that. The working title is
Incarnate Duty, and it will be an anthology!
I mentioned in a previous post that I would be working on a project between Books IV and V, and originally thought of doing a novelette. I decided that a collection of short stories would be more appropriate, including POVs that readers will never see in other parts of Legacy Incarnate.
The anthology covers 20 years, starting right after the end of Book IV and ending right before Book V. I've drafted most of the short stories, with only three more planned to go. Most of the stories have a more light-hearted tone to them than the main series, although there are more serious stories as well. While it's not necessary to read prior to Book V, it explores characters and unusual situations, and it will fill in a lot of gaps that the reader may find in Book V.
Next Publication?
My main focus will be turned to Book 3 of The Legend of Draconite: E'lsra, although I will finish drafting Incarnate Duty on the side. I'm hoping E'lsra will get published by the end of 2025, but that's very tentative. However, this will for sure be the next publication before I start publishing more LI or anything else!
