June Update
over 1 year ago – Wed, May 21, 2025 at 07:25:06 AM

Taking a moment to clarify. Please be aware that we are still shipping the hardback editions of volumes 3 & 4. We still have several thousand more of them to ship out. If you haven't received a notice that your hardbacks have shipped it means that you are still in the shipping queue with other orders waiting to be fulfilled. We will post an update when the final order is shipped. Until then, please don't email asking if your order has shipped as it is slowing down fulfillment exponentially everyday as we are having to spend hours responding to backers to say that we are still shipping books to backers. Please only email us if you need to update your shipping address. 

If you do need to update your shipping address, please include your backer number and the email you used to back the campaign as well as include the new address you need the books shipped to as having to ask for that information is also slowing down fulfillment. Please email backer number, email and new shipping address to: [email protected]

Once we have shipped all of volumes 3 &4 out to backers, then we will turn out attention to volume 5 (Synergy) and we will begin posting updates for that.

Thank you so much for your patience and understanding.

While you wait for these, please remember that Sherri's publisher is in the final few  hours of running the campaign for League books, Born of Night & Born of Legend. Their campaign ends at 6 PM EST. If you'd like to pledge to get a copy of their beautiful set, please see their page https://shorturl.at/b1M6d These are going to be epic and best of all, we are not the ones who will be fulfilling the orders so you will receive them much. much faster as they are being done by a pro team!

Again, we are working as fast as we can to get Ash & Styxx out to all of you. We know how anxious you are to get your copies and we are just as eager to get them into your waiting hands. Thanks so much for hanging in here with us.

Jake, Kim, Sherri & crew

We will be mailing out the last of the TRADE 3 & 4 volumes this week and all the swag items have been mailed. We still have a couple of thousand Vol 3 & 4 hardbacks to ship and we're still working on those. Once the final hardbacks for 3 & 4 are shipped, we will notify backers. Please be patient as we work hard to fulfill orders.  After we finish volumes 3 & 4, we will turn our attention to volume 5 (Synergy). If you have an address you need to update, please email Jake: [email protected]

On April 12 at noon EST, Sherri's publisher will be launching their own Kickstarter for the League books: Born of Night & Born of Legend. To celebrate, Sherri will be doing a live stream on her FB page: https://www.facebook.com/mysherrilyn/ Her publisher will be doing early bird specials that will only be available tomorrow. To make sure that you don't miss the launch, please sign up on their Kickstarter page: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hijinxx/sherrilyn-kenyons-born-of-night-and-born-of-legend?ref=alwxw9

The books will have all-new League illustrations and all the bells and whistles. There's even a stretch goal for an extra Thia story! We hope you'll check it out. Again, the link for the campaign is here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hijinxx/sherrilyn-kenyons-born-of-night-and-born-of-legend?ref=alwxw9 

Please note that Sherri's publisher will be handling the League campaign (not us) and they have their own fulfillment company that is a LOT faster than our small staff with a lot more experience. Again, we're sorry for the delays and hope to have the Ash/Styxx books out as soon as we can.

Thank you so much for your patience.

April Update
over 1 year ago – Fri, Apr 11, 2025 at 11:27:19 AM

We are still shipping Volumes 3 & 4. If you need to update us with a new shipping address, please email [email protected]

For those who've been asking about the publisher's League Kickstarter, it will begin on April 23 at noon EST. Please don't email us any questions about the League campaign as it is being done by the publisher who is running it separately from us and they will be the ones who fulfill the orders, and take care of everything with their campaign. 

Please be assured that the League campaign is in no way interfering with the Acheron/Styxx campaign. The publisher is taking care of everything for the League and we are still working on fulfilling the Acheron/Styxx books. 

If you want to be notified of when they launch the League campaign, please visit: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hijinxx/sherrilyn-kenyons-born-of-night-and-born-of-legend

Thank you so much.

Once more, we deeply apologize for the long delay in getting our Kickstarter project out. We are still shipping as fast as we can, but please be patient as this week we have lost two valuable and beloved members of our family and are currently having to take care of matters we did not anticipate. Shipping this week will be slow, but we should be back up and running next week which is why we're doing this update. We wanted everyone to know why shipping has slowed down this week. 

We will do another update when we take the last batch of Volumes 3 & 4 to the post office. Please rest assured that even without an update in the interim, we are shipping every day, weather permitting and will be back up to speed after this weekend. 

Please rest assured that when your order ships, you will receive an email with your tracking number in the email you used to back the project. If you haven't received this email that means that you are still in the queue to have your order shipped. 

If you need to update your shipping address, please email us at: [email protected]

Please note that we are doing our absolute best to get everything out to our wonderful backers as fast as possible and we deeply appreciate your patience as we go through this incredibly hard time. We know how long it's been and never anticipated life and weather tackling us this hard. But we will make sure everything gets out to you just as soon as we can. And be assured that if you don't hear from us, we are still working on the project and are shipping as fast as we can.

That being said, we do want to let y'all know about two Kickstarter projects that are NOT being done by us. These are separate companies who have a much, much larger team to run their campaigns and do fulfillment.

This year marks the thirtieth anniversary of when Born of Night was first published. To celebrate the thirty year mark, my publisher will be doing their own Kickstarter for the Andarion-Human twins in a beautiful matching hardcover set. If they hit their stretch goal, they will release a never before published short story about Thia that I wrote years ago (it was supposed to be the follow up book in the 1990s after Paradise City was released). Again, my publisher is the one doing this Kickstarter, not us. They will be handling all aspects of it, including fulfillment, and they're only offering this for three weeks. To make sure you don't miss out on the chance to take Nyk and Dagger (and maybe Thia) home, please sign up here to be notified when their Kickstarter begins at the end of the month: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hijinxx/sherrilyn-kenyons-born-of-night-and-born-of-legend  

The other Kickstarter is being done by Lixandria who paused their February campaign. After getting a lot of fan feedback, they decided they wanted more time to fine tune and revamp their app to make it more interactive with users. This is going to be even more epic and they plan to relaunch their "Storyverse" campaign this coming May. It's a role-player or fanfic writer's dream come true and has even more options than what they were planning. To make sure you don't miss out on this all new reader experience, please visit: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/lixandria/lixandria-storyversetm-with-sherrilyn-kenyon-vivid-fiction?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=sk-storyverse-prelaunch to make sure you're notified when they relaunch.

Again, these are two Kickstarters being run by other companies who are bringing special editions to the League fans, and Dark-Hunter fans who have wanted to "live" in the books and meet the characters.

Don't forget the long-awaited Simi novel just came out!

For more information, please click here: https://www.sherrilynkenyon.com/book/simi/

We've had so many emails from League readers who have been begging for their own special editions and we wanted to make it possible for you to have your twins, too :)

The 2025 release schedule:

• February: Simi (CON)
• May: Secret War (stand alone)
• Synergy (Dark-Hunters) should be shipping by this fall.
• Aug: House of Ice & Shadows (book 2 Myths & Outlaws)
• Aug: Scaring & Daring anthology 
• Sept: All Things Hidden (stand alone)
• Dec: Eve of Ruin (League)

Please hold your loved ones close and take care of each other. 

Thank you.

Final Update Until Last of Vols 3 & 4 Have Shipped
over 1 year ago – Sun, Feb 02, 2025 at 07:21:22 PM

Again, we apologize deeply for the long delay in getting our Kickstarter project out. Please note that when Vols 1 & 2 went out, it was spring and summer. The books this year came in right before the holidays. In addition to holidays, we've been hit with hurricanes, fires and other natural disasters that have caused delays in shipping. In Canada, there was a postal strike and our carrier wouldn't receive packages shipped to Canada until after the strike ended, and even a few weeks thereafter as they were backlogged. Here, in our own hometown, our post office has been shut down twice for several days each time because of winter weather. 

In spite of all that, we are still shipping Volumes 3 & 4 to backers. To help facilitate the shipping, we are not going to post any more updates until we ship the last batch of these volumes as the update will not change--we are working on shipping the books out. 

We will do an update when that last batch is received by the post office. Please rest assured that even without an update, we are shipping every day, weather permitting. 

When your order ships, you will receive an email with your tracking number in the email you used to back the project. If you haven't received this email, you are still in the queue to have your order shipped. If you're just receiving bookmarks & cards without books, those are going out first class and there is no tracking number for them. You will receive an email, but there won't be a tracking number.

If you need to update your shipping address, please email us at: [email protected]

Please note that we are doing our absolute best to get everything out to our wonderful backers as fast as possible and we deeply appreciate your patience. We know how long it's been and never anticipated this. But we will make sure everything gets out to you just as soon as we can. And be assured that if you don't hear from us, we are still working on the project and are shipping as fast as we can.

Thank you.
