Tocharian Gospels Updates

I just have a couple of quick updates. I received some great feedback from a Twitter follower about the book covers for my Tocharian Gospels Series. The person in question suggested that the covers have a unified theme. Looking back, I was trying to design each jacket to be unique, which was the wrong path to take. As a series, each cover should relate to the others, and I see that now. I like The Slaying of the Bull’s cover design, and seeing that it was already published, it seemed like a good idea to follow that theme. Please take a look here and let me know what you think!

Secondly, I decided to change the title of the second book in the series. It was originally Vril. I liked its simplicity, and it was a word that not many people know. There were just two issues with this. One, the title has been used before in a work published in 1871. The book established the term, and it was used widely in the late 19th century in the Spiritualist movement. I adopted the word because of its associations with Helena Blavatsky, the founder of Theosophy, and its subsequent influences on Aleister Crowley and thus the Thule Society of National Socialism (it is not just a made-up word). Secondly, the single word didn’t work with the new series cover theme. Thus, I changed it to The Power of the Heliodromus. You will understand the significance of the Heliodromus (also a real term) when you read The Slaying of the Bull. I don’t want to give any spoilers, but this new title still relates to Vril.

I hope you have a chance to read The Slaying of the Bull and provide feedback! Its an epic tale that begins and even more profound journey. You can leave an Amazon review here or feel free to set me feedback directly in the comments below or here. The Island of Stone (don’t forget to leave a review!) is also still available if you’re not into Historical Fiction.

Cheers!
