- Hey everyone, The Strength of the Few (Hierarchy #2) will officially release in hardcover, ebook and audio on NOVEMBER 11, 2025! Preorder links: Amazon - amazon.com/Strength-Few-2… B&N - barnesandnoble.com/w/the-strength… No Audible preorder yet, but I'll post again when it’s available!
- Great news today, and something I know a lot of you have been hoping for… ALL hardcover editions of The Strength of the Few will have a reversible jacket with both the new art, and a cover in the original style! Thrilled that Saga Press were willing and able to make this happen.
- Forgot to post about it when it actually won (too focused on getting Hierarchy #2 finished at the time), but: my Aurealis Award for The Will of the Many arrived today!
- I know not everyone will have time to do a reread of book #1 before The Strength of the Few releases (3.5 weeks to go!!), so for those interested, here's the link to an ‘interlude’ I wrote - a bonus chapter that serves as a recap for The Will of the Many: bit.ly/ConfessionesAd…
- Hey everyone, sorry for the radio silence - busy times. Holding off on posting my March progress update, because I want to include the official release date for The Strength of the Few... which should be announced around the end of this week! So stay tuned...
- I’ll be more detailed in my progress report at the end of the month, but just to keep everyone in the loop: The Strength of the Few (Hierarchy #2) has now been submitted for editing!
- My copies of The Will of the Many: Deluxe have arrived - they look amazing in person, extremely pleased with how they turned out!

- Absolutely thrilled to see this incredible review of The Strength of the Few from Petrik! He does a great job at keeping it spoiler-free, too.It's done. My review for The Strength of the Few by @IslingtonJames is up! @SagaPressBooks "The Strength of the Few by James Islington has secured the best fantasy book of the year award. This is the finest sequel I’ve read since Words of Radiance and The Wall of Storms."
- My hardcover of The Strength of the Few arrived today (only two weeks to go!)... so here's the reversible jacket in action!
