I'm pleased to announce that The Assassin's Code is now available at all major online retailers.

More info here -> https://www.scottmarlowe.com/page/the-assassin-s-code
I'm well over 100,000 words now on the rough draft of The Assassin's Skill. I feel like I should win an award or something. The 100,000-word award.

I should have this initial draft wrapped up in a day or so. Then the real work--editing--begins.

It's really hot and humid out today, so I'm staying inside to focus on wrapping up the final big scene in The Assassin's Skill. It's the culmination of the series so far, bringing many storylines to a conclusion. The Nameless Assassin has many more adventures ahead of him!

The entire audiobook version of The Assassin's Blade is available on YouTube. This is the first book in the Assassin Without a Name series, in its entirety. It's the same version available to purchase at online retailers. Give it a listen and let me know what you think.

Who remembers Battle Beyond the Stars? I had no idea it was directed by James Cameron.

Before 'Avatar,' before 'Aliens,' and before even 'Piranha II,' the legendary director cut his teeth on a forgotten B-movie.

The next Tale of the Assassin Without a Name is locked and loaded for my YouTube channel. Look for the new story early Monday morning.

When a peaceful evening at the luxurious Gilded Flute is shattered by an ominous crow's call, the Nameless Assassin finds himself drawn into an unlikely alliance.

Great idea!

I'm at 72,000 words on the rough draft of The Assassin's Skill. If I can reach 80,000 by Friday, I should be able to finish the 1st draft in another 2-3 weeks. That would keep me on track for the September 16th release date.

I'm making steady progress. 👍👍👍

Unholy Alliance from The Assassin's Cunning is the next story I plan to release on my YouTube channel. I'm wrapping up the final production steps now. Look for it on Monday morning at 9AM CST.

I'm delving into the final nuances in The Assassin's Skill. At this stage of the storyline, the situation has become quite intricate, with numerous subplots and characters pursuing their own goals. It's certainly a complex monstrosity, but I'm dedicated to making it as unpredictable as possible.
