It’s been three months since I last spoke about Phantom Eden, so I thought I’d give a small progress update on the project.

Phantom Eden is a complete rewrite of the novellas Utopia For The Devil, and New Dawn. One thing I’d like to emphasise is that this is a complete reimagining of the story. It’s not a re-release and these are not minor changes.

Around 90% of the story is rewritten from scratch. Whilst approaching Phantom Eden, I didn’t just take the original story and polish it, but rather, ask the question: How can I tell this story in a better fashion?

The book itself is coming along nicely and I work on it every day. Already, I can see improvements over the original story. I much prefer this version found in Phantom Eden, and I’m sure you will too. I’m really excited to share it in the near future.

Earlier, I posted the reimagination of Utopia For The Devil – Phantom Eden.

Revolution Children is the next instalment in the series, advancing the story further by going back to where it all started. Prequel to the events of the original novella, Revolution Children reveals unanswered questions and explores the fall of a utopia.

The first Phantom Eden book contains Utopia For The Devil and New Dawn, completely rewritten with brand new, additional material. Phantom Eden is the first part of a new trilogy, with Revolution Children being the second instalment.

I’ll be sharing more details about Revolution Children, including a full synopsis in the new year.

Forget everything you know about Utopia For The Devil. Today, I’m pleased to announce the next step in the Utopia For The Devil series: Phantom Eden.

2010 was the year for the original novella, closely followed by New Dawn in 2011. Now, we’re hitting the reset switch to tell both parts of the story in a brand new way.

With the book containing two parts: Utopia For The Devil, New Dawn, and additional backstory and material, this is the definitive version of the tale about rebellion, free-will and ancestry.

Completely rewritten from the original two stories, Phantom Eden features brand new material, such as an expanded backstory and interquel chapters to bridge the gap between Utopia and New Dawn.

Coming 2013, Phantom Eden will be published in one volume, available in paperback and eBook formats. Stay tuned, as I have more exciting news regarding Phantom Eden to share in the coming months.
