 I Dream of Damastion is officially the first Armadaverse book to 'go wide', and is no longer exclusive to Amazon Kindle. You can now find the novella on Kobo, Nook, Apple Books, and many other eBook platforms including popular digital lending libraries. Paperbacks will be arriving with additional major retailers soon.
The rest of the books in series one will appear on the same sites over the next two months. You can see all the new retail and borrowing services listed here: https://books2read.com/aw-idod

The Armada Wars back catalogue will soon be 'going wide', which means the Ebook editions will be available at a range of retailers and no longer exclusive to Amazon Kindle.
The drawback of this decision is that the books will no longer be available to borrow as part of Kindle Unlimited. Electronic editions can only take part in KU if they're exclusive to Amazon. Kindle editions will still be available via Amazon/Kindle as normal retail purchases, and if you've purchased any outright they will of course stay in your account. If you're currently reading an Armadaverse title via KU, here are the deadlines before the books leave the subscription platform:  Over the years it's been mentioned a few times that the data collection policies of Meta, formerly Facebook platform, are sinister at best. The idea of removing the Armada Wars brand from that entire platform has been under consideration for some time, with web objects and cookies owned or utilised by Meta already being stripped from this site. Fast forward to 2025, and the swamp is now swampier. Facebook is nothing but advertising, right wing nonsense, and AI slop. Instagram and Threads are full of bot accounts purveying porn sites and scams, and spreading hatred and disinformation. And now with the recent announcement by Zuckerberg that fact checking will be removed, and the Meta brand needs "more masculine energy", this may spell the end for the whole Meta platform as a credible social media experience. The key term there is "social" — it's now very much antisocial, and the forecast is not great for the coming months and years. For that reason, the whole Armada Wars brand is now leaving the Meta platform, wholesale. The official AW and RCV pages will be deactivated and rest on the business account (which will also be deactivated). This walkout will include Facebook, Instagram, Threads, WhatsApp, and any other Meta-owned utility apps. The only account that will stay active is RCV on Threads, and that will be contingent on the site not going downhill following the disturbing comments made by the Meta CEO. Going forward, this site will publish all AW news. RCV's homepage is at https://outdoorsauthor.blog/ As we hurtle towards the Tenth Armadaversary, it's slightly daunting but also extremely satisfying to acknowledge that in a few months' time, this is what the line-up will look like...  UK: Waterstones and Blackwells!UK shoppers have not been left out — the same titles are currently invading the Waterstones and Blackwells web sites.
The Books 1–3 Omnibus has landed already, and the expansion episodes should appear soon. As with B&N, the books are eligible for the Waterstones shipping offer. On their site you need £25 worth of qualifying items in your cart to benefit from free shipping. On Blackwells, all titles include UK delivery. The books are also populating to other stores in the UK, such as Foyles, so if you have a favourite book retailer you may well find soon that you can purchase Armadaverse titles from them. Don't forget that discounted 'previous version' paperback editions of the main sequence novels are also available in the official store.  The previous excerpts from upcoming finale Whom Gods Shall Fear were brief, but this one is possibly the one many of you have been waiting for!
The murderous Maber Castigon is worryingly popular, but who am I to judge? Here is a whole Deep-damned scene from his flashback chapters... Another teaser excerpt for you all! Some names have been starred out in this excerpt, as they would constitute spoilers.
Because you have all been so patient, here is a short excerpt from Whom Gods Shall Fear to get that blood pumping again.
Not long to go now! All eBooks have now been updated with minor changes:
