FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SEATTLE, WA, May 13 – Celebrating a new approach to publishing, Grim Oak Press announced today it will be handling distribution for New York Times bestselling author Michael J. Sullivan, beginning with Age of Legend. The forthcoming fantasy novel continues the story begun in Age of Myth, Age of Swords, and Age of War, the first three books published by Del Rey Books. Chesley Award-winning artist Marc Simonetti will continue supplying cover artwork, promising continuity between the first three books and the final three books.
“I am excited to work with Michael again,” said Grim Oak Press publisher Shawn Speakman. “He donated one of the first stories to Unfettered, the charity anthology that helped eliminate the medical debt I had accrued from treating cancer in 2011. Unfettered helped launch Grim Oak Press. To partner with Michael now and bring his exceptional storytelling to his eager readership is a dream come true.”
Age of Legend has already been selected as a Goodreads Hottest Book of Summer. Its sequels will publish every seven months. Bookstores can order copies from Ingram Content Group.
