~ Message from Robert Stanek ~
Dear Readers,
It's hard to believe summer is almost over. In June, I went on a cross
country road trip that was part vacation part business. I want to thank
readers who have been helping to tell others about my books. Hope you
enjoy the stories.
Thank you,
Robert Stanek

~ Web Update ~
Reagent Press has a new web site. Please drop in http://www.tvpress.com/
and tell us what you think! We've tried to provide more information on
Robert Stanek's books, including upcoming books like Kingdom Alliance
(Ruin Mist Chronicles Book 3) and Ruin Mist Heroes, Legends and Beyond.
We are also thankful to the many readers who have set up fan sites. At
last count (and thanks to Tara B. for telling us this and providing
links!) there were 27. Becky G. also put together a list of the Top 10
Ruin Mist sites http://uptowngirl17.tripod.com/.
===========================================
~ Feature: The Kingdoms & The Elves of the Reaches III
Robert's The Kingdoms & The Elves Of The Reaches III will officially be
available on August 28. Advance copies have been available on the
Internet. We've already had a ton of email regarding this book. What's
the inside scoop? What's the story? What are the juicy tidbits no one
else knows but everyone's asking about?
Okay, here it is: The gates and the orbs. The gates are doorways between
realms. There are believed to be 7 gates. Most of the gates are masked
from the world with a veil of illusion. The gate in the Borderlands is
opened by speaking the following words of power "Eh tera mir dolzh
forums tan!"
Uver is the founder of Greye and the creator of the gates. He is not the
one who created the orbs, however. Dnyarr, Elf King of Greye, is the one
who created the orbs. To learn more about Uver, Dnyarr and the peoples
of Under-Earth, you'll have to read Ruin Mist, Heroes, Legends and
Beyond.
The really good news , however, is that we get to see a lot more of
Under-Earth in The Kingdoms & The Elves Of The Reaches III. Vilmos has
an extended stay in Under-Earth where he meets many wild creatures and a
troant named Edward Tallyback. We also get to see more of East Reach
through the eyes of Galan as she reminisces about Leklorall.
In The Kingdoms & The Elves Of The Reaches IV, Robert promises me that
we'll finally get to visit Over-Earth.
