Are there any authors whose books you eagerly anticipate and tend to buy at launch? (pawb.social)

Nowadays I don't really have any authors or book series like this. As I kid I used to get really excited for a new Series of Unfortunate Events or Alex Rider book. For a while I kept my eye on Adrian Tchaikovsky, but lately I've found some of his novels to be hit or miss.

The only book release I'm currently looking forward to is Brigands & Breadknives in the Legends & Lattes series by Travis Baldree. The other two books have been cosy and wholesome, and it's become a little tradition of mine to read these books around Christmas.

I've heard great things about this series, but unfortunately it doesn't appear to be possible to buy them on Kobo? :(

The ebook is an Amazon exclusive unfortunately. It used to be possible to convert with calibre, but Amazon closed that loophole unless you have a kindle floating around. They all got released in hardcover this year. Alternatively you could buy them on Amazon and then pirate them in a more accessible format.

The series is pretty good.

Buying them on Amazon and then downloading them elsewhere is a good suggestion! Thanks :)

Sorry to hear that. If you can, the audiobooks are fucking fantastic!
