I just put in the order for the last book of Space Wizard Year 3, Ardulum: Mirrors of Andal! As soon as I get copies, which will hopefully be the first or second week in June, I'll be mailing out the LAST REWARDS from this campaign!
That means I will also be closing the Pledge Manager, so if you are one of the 8 backers who haven't filled out your survey or reconciled a failed credit card, this will lock you out from any further changes.
However, just as one door closes, someone opens a window (or something like that)! In this case, Space Wizard Year 4 is starting TOMORROW May 29th at 1 PM EST! If you want even more queer goodness, please check out the new campaign! We're doing things a little different this year and dividing the campaign into two halves, one in June and one in November. What this means is if you get the Space Wizard subscription, you'll get all your books by the end of 2025, rather than having to wait a full year. Then you can get the next 6 months of books in November!
We've got some great books this year, and as an added bonus, if you back the campaign in the first 48 hours (so before 1 PM on May 31st), you'll also get a free audiobook of one of 9 Space Wizard stories!
Here's the full list, and you can be one of the first backers!
Books coming in year 4 PART 1, June 2025:
Isaac - a woman develops a relationship with her deceased father's care-bot, from Allee Mead.
Waves Take Your Bones - The first in a trilogy where a young asexual woman and a gay man get drafted into a medieval naval fleet to fight zombies (and zombie pirates), by Athena Giles
It's You, Isn't It? - A colony world is overrun by indigenous creatures, but maybe there's more to the story? By Antony Paschos
Crying Out For Magic - It's like Heartstopper, but with magic! Two young men find each other through connected universes, one of which is ours and the other has failing magic, by PSC Willis
Intent Magic - The second book in William C. Tracy's new progression fantasy series, featuring martial arts-based magic, and fast moving continents in a world controlled by the gods!
Relic of Haven - Return to a world of post apocalyptic giant crabs and human scavengers with the sequel to Empress of Dust, by Alex Kingsley!
A New Beginning - Following Earth's surprising victory over an alien species that has dominated the galaxy, an intrepid crew strikes out to explore alien space in E.J. Isaacs' debut novel!
So please check out Space Wizard Year 4! You are the people who keep our small press going, and help uplift marginalized and queer voices in science fiction and fantasy literature!
I'll have one last update when I send the final books out!
