I answered the questions and my result is ‘not going to quit anytime soon’. It’s a good article, even though the title and byline are somewhat misleading. #WriteSky #BookSky

The mini short story collection A Roll of the Dice and the full-length SPFBO Finalist novel Hall of Bones are available as audiobooks across all major retailers. Listeners have loved the superb narration by @rjbayley.bsky.social, the perfect introduction to the world of The Brotherhood of the Eagle!
Experience The Brotherhood of the Eagle on Audio! A Roll of the Dice by Tim Hardie Hall of Bones by Tim Hardie Available wide on iTunes, Spotify, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Google Audio, Overdrive & many more! “To top it all off, RJ Bayley narrates the audiobook. I don’t really know what else to say there. It’s perfect. Bayley is just one of the best narrators. That’s all there is to it.” - Hall of Bones “in audio form each story is only around 15 minutes, and in that short time, Hardie crafts tales of a fascinating world populated by in depth, well-rounded characters. It just draws you in and spits you back out wanting more.” - A Roll of the Dice “R J Bayley ... brings exactly the right level of gruff while still delivering a great range of nuance for the broad cast of characters.” - Hall of Bones

It’s release day and Broken Brotherhood is now available as an eBook on Amazon and Kindle Unlimited! The Brotherhood of the Eagle saga finally draws to a close as we learn the fate of Rothgar and his allies and enemies.

I plan to release the paperback next week, so watch this space.
Broken Brotherhood by Tim Hardie “gritty Norse-flavoured political fantasy at its bloody best; it satisfied the cravings for those epic character-driven fantasy stories like Robin Hobb’s Realm of the Elderlings and John Gwynne’s Banished Lands saga” - Before We Go Blog
