Dragonslayer out in the wild, and weekend promotion!

Posted on 5th July 2019 by Duncan

As you may or may not have heard, Dragonslayer is now out in the wild, available in ebook, hardback – which is new for me, paperback, and audiobook which is once again narrated by the awesome Simon Vance. You can pick up a copy in a format of your choice at the links below:

Amazon.com

Amazon.co.uk

To mark Dragonslayer’s release, and to shamelessly attempt to fill your summer reading pile with my titles, I’m giving away the kindle edition of The First Blade of Ostia, a swashbuckling fantasy adventure with tons of swordfights, for free this weekend. You can pick up your copy at the following links:

First Blade – Amazon US

First Blade – Amazon UK

Finally, if you enjoyed Dragonslayer, and have a moment to spare, I’d really appreciate it if you could leave a review over on Amazon, at either of the two links above. Aside from buying an author’s book (thanks!), the best thing you can do to help them out is leave a review!

I hope you all have a great weekend,

Duncan

Dragonslayer Audio Sample

Posted on 6th June 2019 by Duncan

I’m lucky enough to have Simon Vance back to narrate Dragonslayer. He won a SOVA Award for Best Fantasy Narration for Wolf of the North back in 2017, so I’m delighted he’s narrating the Dragonslayer trilogy. Tor have put up a teaser for the audiobook narration, so you can now have a listen to the first 3 chapters of Dragonslayer over at this link:

Listen to Duncan M. Hamilton’s Dragonslayer

You can grab a copy of Dragonslayer at Amazon, amongst others, but here’s a quick link for Amazon:

Don’t forget about the preorder bonus Drake of White Peak! All the details can be found here:

Dragonslayer news!

Posted on 25th January 2019 by Duncan

With the different route to publication that I’m taking with the Dragonslayer trilogy, partnering up with Tor, there are plenty of new experiences for me along the way. One of those is getting the occasional mention in trade press. It’s my first time being mentioned in one of these, so I thought I’d share it. You can take a look:

In other news, I’m a lot more active on Goodreads these days, so if you want to follow along, please feel free to add me as a friend. You can find my profile here:

I’ve set up a group there also, which you can join to keep in the loop in the run up to Dragonslayer’s release on 2 July 2019. There’ll hopefully be giveaways, excerpts, and artwork reveals as we get closer to the big day, so that’ll be a good spot to keep up to date with those!

Cover reveal for Dragonslayer

Posted on 3rd December 2018 by Duncan

Today is cover reveal day for my upcoming book, Dragonslayer, the fist part of my Dragonslayer trilogy! Without further ado, here it is:

I’m really pleased with how it turned out, so I hope you like it to! The official cover reveal page can be found over on the Tor website, which you can take a look at here.

Dragonslayer will be coming out in the summer of next year!

Society of the Sword nominated!

Posted on 12th October 2018 by Duncan

It’s definitely been too long since I last posted an update – apologies! My only excuse is that I’ve been incredibly busy working on the three Dragonslayer books with Tor. They’re still on schedule for publication next year!

The news of the day is that the Society of the Sword audiobook has been nominated for a SOVAS award in the Best Voice Artist category, for Derek Perkins. I think he did an incredible job in narrating it. Win or lose, I think Derek brought a huge amount to the audio production, and the nomination is the least amount of recognition he deserves.

The awards are on 18 November, so I wish him the best of luck, and am sorry I won’t be able to make it to the ceremony myself!

Wolf of the North 3 out now in audio!

Posted on 16th January 2018 by Duncan

I’m delighted to announce that The Blood Debt – Wolf of the North Book 3, is now available in audio. You can get your copy at:

Audible US

Audible UK

It’s also available via the regular Amazon product page. Once again, it’s narrated by the excellent Simon Vance, who has wrapped up the trilogy with another superb performance! I’m really pleased with how the audio version of the series has turned out, and I hope you all really enjoy this final part!

Wolf of the North Audio Nominated for a SOVA Award

Posted on 27th September 2017 by Duncan

It’s always a bit of a surprise to wake up to the news that something you’re involved in has made a list or is nominated for an award, but it’s always a nice one. In this instance, I can’t say I’m quite as surprised as usual, as Simon Vance did such a superb job narrating The Wolf of the North, for him to be nominated for Audiobook Narration – Fantasy, Best Voiceover for this book is very well deserved. Fingers crossed that he can take home the top spot!

You can see the full list of nominations here: http://sovas.org/2017-nominees/

Society of the Sword Now in Audio!

Posted on 12th September 2017 by Duncan

Hey everyone,

The Society of the Sword trilogy is now available in audio. Derek Perkins narrates this trilogy, giving it a slightly different flavour to the Wolf of the North, but does an equally superb job, and makes this setting his own. If you’ve enjoyed any of my books, audio or otherwise, I think you’ll really like this one. It’s all three parts in one volume, so you can binge through the entire trilogy in one go!

You can get your copy at Audible or Amazon:

Audible

Amazon US

Amazon UK

I’ve been particularly looking forward to this release, as enough time has passed for me to forget a lot about Society of the Sword (Wolf of the North is still a bit recent for me to revisit it!), so I get to listen to it as close to fresh as it can be when you’re the one who wrote it!

Jorundyr’s Path Audiobook Out Now!
