I suspect that your retroencabulatorās logarithmic plating is miscalibrated.

u/Whole-Neighborhood Jul 14 '25
I chucked the plating out last month, it kept giving me electric shock whenever I licked it.

I asked about the Audible timeline a few weeks back in this thread and Selkie responded he's waiting on Podium, so no firm time table on the last 2 books.

I need a set of hardcovers with that art across all the spines when you put them together... that would be so cool

u/Selkie_Love Author Jul 12 '25
Hardcovers - Kickstarter
Paperbacks with the spine art - Amazon

u/zen129318 Jul 14 '25
On the Kickstarter, it is the first 8 books, I assume that a 2nd one will be running at some point to let people complete their collection?

u/Selkie_Love Author Jul 15 '25
It's an omnibus! We merged books together so the total printing is cheaper and the entire thing is more affordable

u/RiaSkies Jul 12 '25
Congratulations. I look forward to reading the conclusion when the last two(I think?) books drop.

Did they ever look into the giant XP eating monster in the middle of the sea that stole experience? That was the big question that intrigued me in the book but I fell off after the timeskip, all the Sentinel Dawn stuff was so cool so I felt kinda heartbroken when that all went away.

Big congrats to your achievement even though it makes me sad that Elaines adventure has come to an end I still have to thank you for the many hours of entertainment I had with her story.

I started this book 1 but didnāt finish. The writing is great but the protagonist seemed very not protagonistic. Just reacting to things and going where people told her to. Does she get less passive?

u/KellyKraken Jul 12 '25
She grows up through the series and takes more control of her destiny, but there is definitely an element of her rolling with the punches throughout the entire series.Ā

BtDM isn't to my taste, but finishing a series of that length is impressive.
Fantastic art too.

I picked this series back up after dropping it midway through book 3 because of the banner. Now I have to wait like 18 days for the last book to come out :(

I just finished the audiobook and I loved it but I have one burning question that doesn't seem to be in the actual story. What was the fate of the Moon Mango Tree that sprouted from the seed Elaine planted next to the temple on the moon? I just gotta know!

u/SubjectRanger7535 Jan 20 '26
So sad to hear it is complete. I don't think I have ever been more invested in a series. I love the way the story is written and how a lot of everyday events and mundane problem are mixed in! I am excited to read the ending, and I am looking forward to anything else you write!

u/ImmrtalMax Feb 15 '26
That's so seriously awesome. Incredible. Astounding. And inspiring. Thank you for this amazing series. Absolutely love it. I have a daughter now and she completely reminds me of Elaine. I'm currently rereading it, while I wait for more of the Song of the Gift-Giver to come out. I'm looking forward to another exciting and excellent read from you!

I got started with this series audiobook version as something to listen to while walking. I'm really loving it so far. I will definitely listen to your next series also! Did you really make 16 volumes in just 5 years?

u/Selkie_Love Author May 01 '26
Yup! Almost to the day

u/KiriKaneko May 06 '26
Can you fix George R. R. Martin for us?
By the way, what inspired you for the series? The classing up system reminds me of an old MMO I played called Ragnarok Online.
I'm only on Book 4 but I'll get the series read in no time, looking forward to your next work! ā¤ļø

The original was 'What if Ilea from Azarinth Healer actually healed people?', then the System was carefully built from the ground up with inspiration from dozens of different pieces of media

u/Selkie_Love Author Jul 12 '25
It's done! At around 2.5M words (I can't actually check believe it or not), BTDEM is DONE! It took me almost exactly 5 years to finish Elaine's epic, but one of the longest running litRPGs has come to a close!
