The purpose of the Death March Kickstarter was to raise money to commission gorgeous interior artwork for the first novel in my upcoming fantasy trilogy, as well as produce a hardcover version.

I'm in love.
This paperback is beautiful. I want to thank Colleen at Ampersand Book Interiors for doing such stellar work - check it out!
I'm going to approve this proof and place my bulk order today. The hardcover is in the works and the proof should be arriving soon.
Thanks for your patience, everybody. These books are worth the wait.
Cheers,
Phil
Killer Dungeon Cover + Updates

Hey everyone,
I'm thrilled to reveal Andreas' last cover for the Euphoria Online trilogy. I think it's absolutely stunning, and feel really privileged to be working with such an amazing artist. What do you guys think?
With the final ebook for DEATH MARCH delivered to you guys, I've turned my attention to preparing the print files and uploading them for both the paperback and hardcover versions. Colleen over at Ampersand Book Interiors has been a true pleasure to work with, and while we're slightly behind schedule due to being perfectionists, the files are being uploaded tonight and we're having trial copies mailed home so I can approve them and order them in bulk.
Finally, Ben Juniu has squared away his other commitments and is ready to start working on NIGHTMARE KEEP's interior art, starting tomorrow. I hope to have lots more artwork to share with you all soon.

Hello everyone!
The last day to make final updates to your order is 6/22/18. After this date, I will lock your reward selections and charge cards for add-on item purchases, pledge upgrades, and pre-orders. You can update your shipping address up until I lock addresses for shipping.
If you haven’t answered your survey yet, you can still fill out your BackerKit survey or pay for extra shipping after the 6/22 order due date. However, while I'll still receive your information your shipment may be delayed.
If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page.
THANK YOU!
Thank you all again for being so responsive to answering my BackerKit survey—even though it may not seem like much as an individual backer, you have no idea how tremendously helpful this has been for me when trying to keep track of almost 400 of you!
Thanks everyone for your support!
Ben's delivered new interior artwork for Death March, and I think it's my favorite piece yet. As always, though who want to take a look can do so here. I'm not pasting so as to avoid spoilery images for those who haven't read the book yet.
Cheers,
Phil
Bookmarks + New Art

Hey everyone,
We're getting some tangible progress. A small box of five hundred bookmarks arrived yesterday evening, and I'm very pleased with how they turned out. Sturdy and with a matt finish, I think these'll last you guys for some time, and allow you to enjoy Andreas' artwork even as you read through the trilogy. Huzzah!
New Interior Artwork
Further, Ben's delivered a new piece of interior artwork for Death March, which I've uploaded to the art page on my website here. Head on over if you'd like to take a look, but as before I'm not posting it in this update so as to avoid spoilers.
Everything else is humming along: Ampersand is about to get me all the layouts for Books 1 through 3, with space holders for Ben's missing art, so we're on track for fulfillment as I laid out in my previous post.
How to get hold of Books 2 & 3
Many of you have purchased the ebook versions of Nightmare Keep and Killer Dungeon - thank you! Most of you have gone ahead and either commented here or emailed me requesting the art-free versions, and I believe I've answered everybody.
However: if you've not heard back from me, or have purchased the ebooks and would like to read them sooner than later, please send me an email to [email protected] requesting your copies. I'm sending them out as soon as I get the requests.
Your feedback
I'm also thrilled to say that everyone that's read the books and shared their feedback with me has enjoyed the heck out of them thus far. Sweet success! With this being my first foray into LitRPG I was doubly nervous, but I seemed to have pulled it off :)
If you've read the books, please consider leaving a review or a star rating on Goodreads. I can't stress how important this is to an indie author like myself, and I'd really appreciate your taking the time. Here are the links:
