More free Elemental Assassin short stories …
The release date on Web of Lies is drawing ever closer — May 25. To whet readers’ appetites, I’ve written a couple of free Elemental Assassin short stories — Web of Death and Web of Deceit.
Web of Death takes place in between the events of Spider’s Bite and Web of Lies and focuses on what happens when Gin gets some unexpected visitors one night.
Web of Deceit is another prequel story about Gin’s first solo job as the Spider when she was a teenager and is told from Fletcher Lane’s point of view.
There are no major spoilers in either one of the stories, and both of them can be found on the Excerpts page, along with Spider’s Bargain, the first free short story that I wrote. I just thought writing the stories would be something fun and cool that I could do for readers, since I’ve gotten such great response to Spider’s Bite. I hope everyone enjoys the free stories and can check out Web of Lies when it comes out as well.
Happy reading! 😉
Any chance of collecting these short stories into a single volume at some point in the future?
Susan — Thanks for the link. I appreciate that. 😉
PR — Probably not. Right now, these are just free extras that I’m writing on my own time. I’d have to pay out of my own pocket to publish them in any kind of print or e-reader format.
I really enjoyed the short stories, especially Web of Deceit – but it makes the waiting even harder. I love that they feature Gin, but maybe some that have Finn or the Deveraux sisters so we can find out more about them (or maybe that’s in future books). Appreciate that you put these up.
Xid — Thanks! I’m glad that you enjoyed the short stories. 😉
I do plan on writing a short story from Finn’s point of view at some point. I’m thinking about writing one set at his bank, since we haven’t seen that in any of the books yet. Hopefully, the series will go on long enough for me to write a story from everyone’s point of view. That’s the plan anyway!
