To bring this ramble to a close, if you want to know when the next book(s) become available, take sixty seconds and sign up for my NEW RELEASE EMAIL ALERTS by CLICKING HERE. Don't let the caps lock scare you; I don't sell your information and I only send out emails when I have a new book out. The reason you should sign up for this is because I don't like to set release dates (it's this whole thing, you can find an answer on my website in the FAQ section), and even if you're following me on Facebook (robertJcrane (Author)) or Twitter (@robertJcrane), it's easy to miss my book announcements because…well, because social media is an imprecise thing.
Come join the Sanctuary discussion on my website: http://www.robertjcrane.com ! It's more fun that ranting at your e-reader.
Cheers,
Robert J. Crane

Acknowledgments
My thanks to all these people.
Jo Evans, Nicolette Solomita and David Leach each did a read or twelve (David) on this book, helping improve it in the process and making sure the author didn't lose his damned mind and slip into insanity.
Kari Phillips long ago gave me a great idea about using a goddess to create an infinite number of soul rubies, so thanks to her for that one. And more. Probably more, too.
Karri Klawiter once again provided a flashy and eye-catching cover.
Sarah Barbour provided editorial guidance and helped keep me between the lines on this crazy roller-coaster ride of a novel. It ain't easy producing a work of this size, but it'd be impossible to do it this cleanly without help like she provides.
Jeff Bryan gave this book a final read-through that helped me stamp out some persistent errors and made it a better read.
My kids helped push that sanity dial in the other direction. I love them anyway.
My parents helped keep the kids from pushing that dial too far. They came and stayed for a week during which I managed to write at least a quarter of this manuscript, which was a huge help in getting it back on track.
My wife helps me hold it all together. She's kinda of the crazy-glue for our operation. Minus the crazy. That's my dominion.
