Audio delay
Unfortunately, due to production delays, the audio book versions of Proven Guilty, White Night, and Turn Coat have been pushed back to April 30th. Many online retailers still list April 2nd or April 7th as the release date, but this is incorrect. Apologies for the inconvenience.
But don’t worry, this doesn’t affect the hardback release of Turn Coat! It’s still due in stores April 7th. You can pre-order yours through the Jim-Butcher.com Store or get a signed, personalized copy through the Dog Eared Books Virtual Signing.
For the time being, read all five Turn Coat sample chapters here, or listen to Jim reading them aloud on the Butcher Block podcast. You can also see if Jim is touring to a city near you!
Chapter 4 Posted Tonight, SF3 Gets a Release Date
Tonight, the fourth Turn Coat sample chapter will be posted, both in text and audio format! At 2AM EST (1AM CST, 12AM MDT, 11PM PST, 7AM GMT), find the text version here and the audio version here or on iTunes. If you missed any of the previous three chapters, you can also use those links to catch up on what’s been posted so far. Chapter 5 will be posted March 10th.
Turn Coat can be pre-ordered through the Jim-Butcher.com store or the Dog Eared Books Virtual Signing.
Additionally, fans will be happy to know that issue 3 of the Storm Front graphic novel hits shelves March 4th. Use Diamond’s Comic Store Locator to find the retailer nearest you!
