Jake's Magical Market 2: A Trek Through Time is officially out!
🕑 Added 2024-01-04 11:51:49 +0000 UTCThe audiobook is also currently up for preorder with release set for February 15th if you missed the announcement. You can check it out here: https://www.audible.com/pd/Jakes-Magical-Market-Book-2-Audiobook/B0CQMGVTC8
Also, the final book in the series Jake's Magical Market 3: Home Sweet Home is also on its way with a current release date schedule for mid-April. Book three is the largest book I've ever written, coming in at a whopping 310k words so far - so be prepared for an epic conclusion to Jake's story!
(And FYI, the beta version of JMM3 is currently available to my Artifact level subscribers. The story is complete, but there is still some polishing to be done so only read it early if you are ok with it not quite being perfect yet.)
For now, though, if you're interest please check out book two on Kindle and Kindle Unlimited here:

And here's the blurb:
The long-awaited sequel to Jake’s Magical Market is finally here—and now with more market!
Well, not quite yet. First, Jake has to survive a perilous trek through time if he ever hopes to return home to his friends, his market, and his former world.
The last time we saw our intrepid hero, Jake had barely managed to escape being trapped on a dead version of his own world. Using a combination of his new powers, he threw himself backward through time, back to when the god that trapped him first rose to power. There, Jake snatched divinity from the hands of the ascending god, consuming it for himself without any regard for the consequences of his actions.
In a surprise twist, such a poorly thought-out plan came with some serious downsides!
Now Jake has a big target painted on his back. The jealous gods of this world are hungry for divine power and not afraid to kill another god to get it. Stuck in the past, Jake must learn to navigate a world full of desperate gods, wild monsters, bizarre powers, and weird “cultivating” mortals who claim they can become just as powerful as the gods themselves—as long as they get to sit around contemplating the mysteries of the universe for a few hundred years first.
Join Jake on his next grand adventure as he learns what it means to be a newly ascended divinity, how to survive in such a strange new world, and how he might just have an unexpected edge on everyone and everything that’s out to get him—by learning how to craft his own magical cards!
If you want an update about my other series, Portal to Nova Roma:
The rough draft for book four is done and I will be turning over my final edits on Jake's #3 around January 13th, so I plan to switch over to editing Portal to Nova Roma: Paris right after that. I can't give any predictions on when Nova Roma #4 will actually be ready for release yet though, because my first round of edits are often very extensive (especially with this series) so I won't know until I'm a lot further along in the process of editing. I will keep people updated about my progress on my Discord, Patreon, and Facebook though - or just message me here any time. I'm always happy to chat.

Hello-I would love to get the link for the beta of Jake’s Magical Market #3. Pls forgive me if this was the wrong place to ask. I am a brand new subscriber. Thank You! P.S. Amazon has blocked me from reviewing anything (why??); however BookSirens, Goodreads, Barnes&Noble and BookBub have allowed me to post.

Thank you so much!! Do you happen to remember which card so I can track it down?

What an amazing sequel, thank you so much! There was one small error I noticed - hopefully not too late to add in to any updated version if kindle allows it? Basically one of the cards where the artwork says artifact, but then the text right after says that it’s not an common, rare, legendary, or artifact but something else (can’t remember what it was, but two words I think). Anyhow, enjoyed it so much I had to get book 3 immediately. Congratulations on the launch!
