So it turns out there’s quite a few fantasy book related Kickstarters flying around these days. From special editions to D&D modules to straight up book launches. And to be honest it can be tough to keep track of them. So I asked if people wanted a blog, similar to my Self Published Fantasy Releases blog to allow folk to see what Kickstarters are going on.
Now this list won’t be comprehensive. I’ll be building it from the ones I hear about, and the ones authors tell me about. So, authors, if you’re running a Kickstarter any time soon… TELL ME!
For now, I’ll be doing October and November together, but I may change up the format as we go.
Rules. Gotta have some rules. OK, 1 rule.
Your Kickstarter must have some sort of public page, even if it’s just a launching soon page.
22nd November – 21st December

Revenge: Wahrheit Book 2 by AC Cobble
Book Launch, Hardcover, Audiobook
The second book in the epic fantasy series, Wahrheit. The first book was launched with a hugely successful Kickstarter, and this project takes up where that one left off. Over half the prior stretch goals are included from the second the project funds, and the entire production team including narrator Travis Baldree are back at it. But if you missed the first one, have no fear, those books are available again!
If you enjoy action-packed, adventurous fantasy set in a sprawling world, with a heavy dose of political intrigue, sharp-witted characters, a little bit of humor, and a story that grips you by the throat and doesn’t let go, then this series is for you! It’s the 17th book by AC Cobble, and so far everyone agrees, it’s his best yet.

Competing alien and human settlements clash, and a simple party planner is caught between in After Party.
