LitRPG News
Felicia Day, narrator of Rule of Cool, hosted a Q&A with several LitRPG authors on her Twitch channel.

The author of Gunrod the Barbarian asked us to let readers know that he’s updated kindle file and cover for what was formerly “Gunrod the Barbarian” to now “Realm of the Tower”.
As I said before, the only difference in the text is that the first chapter of Gunrod was deleted, along with the last paragraph or two. Other than that, it's exactly the same.
Michaelle Scott Eearl has just released Lion's Quest 1 on his website in ebook forms, he just re-recorded the audio for book 1, he'll be releasing audio for books 2 and 3 in the future, and he's going to be releasing new books in the series soon!
Lion's Quest is one of my very favorite LitRPG series from MSE so this is exciting news.

PSA - Author go claim your audiobook rights on ACX, the platform used by Audible to upload audiobooks. It looks like there’s a new scam where Thieves claim the audiobook rights of popular books then upload terrible audiobooks either read by a complete amature or by computer voice. Alternatively, they also try to get a legitimate narrator to produce the audiobook or claim to be an agent of the author falsely. Both LitRPG producers Spectrum Audioboooks and Dante King have reported this happening to them.
