Wait! What? Is this The Knight of Iaddash’s Release Date!?

Yes it is! And the release date is April 8th, 2025!

That’s right, The Knight of Iaddash releases on April 8th, 2025!

Its a rather quick release, but it’s been years of hard work. Everything is polished and ready to go, so why wait!? My goal was April, and I’m hitting it!

What’s the Price?

There are two prices, both with different benefits!

The Paperback is priced $12.99, this one features Veronica Verratti’s epic cover art, but also has an equally stunning back cover that e-readers won’t have access to! Plus, you get that crisp new book feel as you turn every page!

The Ebook is priced at $9.99, that is three dollars cheaper than the paperback version! If you buy it digitally, you’ll be able to read it anywhere you’d like. Phone, laptop, or on your portable e-reader! ! I’ve made a lot of good memories reading on vacations, you can stuff a lot of books in one device, maybe mine will be one of yours!

Where do I order?

Paperback should be available to order on April 8th, 2025 on Amazon. In addition to that, a kindle ebook version is available for preorder now!

I have also submitted my book to ingramspark which opens up the potential for brick and mortar stores to buy and sell my book. This also includes your local library! If you think your local library needs The Knight of Iaddash, tell them all about it!

Additionally, I am working on making sure that you can read my book on other devices outside of Kindle. Please be patient with me as I work on making this book as accessible to be read in as many ways as possible!

Would I like this story?

Quite possibly!

The Knight of Iaddash is a faith-centered novel that is aimed at young adults but is fun for anyone with a love for fantasy. Sitting at 130 pages, it makes for a great weekend read that is filled with action, like-able characters, and faith-filled themes.

The themes in this book are distinctly christian, considering that is my faith. If that appeals to you, then I think you’d really like what this book offers. However, while themes of faith are at its core, I set out to write a fun story first. I don’t believe in sacrificing the story for the message. Both should build one another up!

I also had a lot of fun playing around with classic fantasy and heroes journey tropes! This book features a magic sword, and evil wizard, and a mystical entity that is beyond human. If you like that kind of stuff, you’ll probably get a kick out of this story!

What’s the Blurb?

Ultimately, the back cover blurb is going to give you the clearest idea of what this is all about!

So, here it is!:

Kahsa hates dictators, especially the one he had sworn his life to. Forcefully brought up as a solider and reduced to a mere guardsman, Kahsa wants nothing more than to leave his old life behind and find freedom far from the endless gaze of his ruthless master, Agar.

Deciding to run, Kahsa finds himself in the Glorybud Forest at the center of a prophecy given by a God he does not know. Will this God-Iaddash-be Kahsa’s ticket to freedom, or just another master to rule his life?

The only way for him to find out is to pick up the sword!

Anything else?

Just a giant thank you to so many people, friends and family who has supported me, to my editor, Heather Pruitt, who caught my grammar mistakes, to Veronica Verratti for making such an epic cover, and to Cory Rosen for helping explore the possibility of making this story even more accessible by turning it into an audio drama.

Actually, regarding the Audio Drama, Cory and I are still working on it! The casting call went well, and we’ve got a cast read through very soon! We’re gonna need some funds to make it though, so stay tuned for a kickstarter announcement!

And also, thank you all so much. Whether you know me in person, are a friendly stranger who reads my blog, or someone entirely new, your support means the world to me. If you’re able to pick up The Knight of Iaddash, I hope you have a fun time reading it! I’m so happy to be able to share my words with you!

Grace and Peace,

Kenny
