Luzifer Verlag has published their hardcover German translation of Freedom of the Mask, the sixth book in the Matthew Corbett series. The book features great cover art by Michael Schubert, who did the art for the other titles, too. Matthew Corbett and der Maskierte Rächer is available now from the Luzifer Verlag website, as well as from Amazon DE and other retailers. It’s also available in ebook formats.

Lividian Publications is publishing three more Robert McCammon novels in trade paperback formats in 2023!

The Border will be published on July 25, The King of Shadows will be published on September 19, and The Listener will be published on December 12.

In addition to offering the books separately, Lividian will offer a bundle of a limited run of true first printings of these trade paperbacks. This bundle of all three books is for collectors, to be shipped together, that are guaranteed to be from the first printings and are marked as such on their copyright pages. Books purchased individually or from Amazon, et al, may be print-on-demand books, due to the worldwide shortage of paper that’s still happening.

The combined retail value of the three books is $72.97, but the bundle price is just $49 and supplies are limited!

If all goes according to plan, it will be released in Fall 2023 by Lividian Publications in lettered, limited, and trade hardcovers, in ebook by Open Road, and an Audible audiobook.
