The Matt Turner Series Hardcover Editions Now Available
Nearly four years since the original release of The Dig, I finally got around to getting you those hardcover editions you were asking for. And they smell real nice, too. They’ll be in stores in the near future, but you can grab them online from Amazon and B&N right now: The Dig – Amazon – B&N The Opal – Amazon – B&N Return – Amazon – B&N
A Demon’s Story Omnibus Audiobook Sample
My audiobook publishers and I have decided on a different approach to releasing the audio edition of The Many Lives of Samuel Beauchamp (a demon’s story). There will be no standalone version of it, but will instead be bundled with the existing audio edition of A Warm Place to Call Home. Because Frederick’s story (A Warm Place to Call Home) didn’t sell as well as expected on audio, despite being among the highest rated, best reviewed novels in its genre, we looked at potential strategies for releasing Samuel’s story (Book 2, the prequel). As it turns out, these books are relatively…
Regarding USA TV’s new “Dig” show and my “The Dig” book.
Is the USA network’s new TV show “Dig” in any way related to Michael Siemsen’s The Dig (Book 1 of the Matt Turner Series)? In short, nope. In long, here’s a breakdown: This is the official brief description of the TV show: “Peter, an FBI agent stationed in Jerusalem who, while investigating a murder of a young female archaeologist, uncovers a conspiracy 2000 years in the making.” Peter is played by Draco Malfoy’s jerk dad, and Peter’s FBI boss is played by Anne Heche. (Spoiler, the two have sex in the first minute of the first episode.) The show takes…

That sweet sweet new Exigency cover can finally be ogled and caressed in real life, and Goodreads is giving away two of them. Winners will receive an autographed trade paperback (that’s the big, full-sized kind of paperback, if you weren’t aware; those little ones they used to sell on the spinny racks are called “mass market paperbacks”), as well as a free e-book copy in their preferred format (Kindle or ePub). You can enter through the Giveaways page (where the current giveaways always live), or save yourself a click and do the exact same thing right here: Goodreads Book Giveaway…
EXIGENCY 2nd Edition Released Today
Exigency 2nd Edition has been available for Kindle, Nook, iBooks, Kobo, etc. since December (replacing the 1st Edition), but the print version has been the original edition until today. This revised version is essentially the same as the 1st Edition, which had this cover: Below is the list of differences between the 1st Edition and Exigency 2nd Edition: New front and back covers (at the top of this post) with art by Andreas Raninger and Matthias de Muylder, respectively. A few mildly embarrassing typos corrected. The original version ended with Chapter 3.9, followed by an Epilogue. The 2nd Edition…

Mind-blowing Concept Art from World of Exigency
As one of my readers pointed out on my Facebook page, it must be surreal to have elements of my “worlds” brought to life in art. It is. It’s even crazier than hearing talented voice actors narrate my stories in the books’ audio editions (congrats to Ray Chase, winner of this year’s Voice Arts Awards for Best Male Audiobook Narration for his work on my A Warm Place to Call Home). Beloved Swedish artist and book cover designer Andreas Raninger whipped out the base of this panoramic Exigency concept art in maybe 30 minutes, spending the rest of the time tweaking…
