Or, at least, that's what Lady Laura would have you believe.
You see, the other day I told the story about the importance of customer reviews when it came to picking my new mechanic.
So, of course, being the shameless and utterly abhorrent man that I am, I oh-so suavely used that juncture to pivot into…
Requesting more reviews!
And let me tell you… my lords and ladies didn't disappoint.
(Do they ever?)
Some even updated their previous review just to reiterate how much they love The Divided Region.
The grin — oh my goodness, the grin — that has been beaming off my mug is bright enough to power the UK's grid for an entire month.
No exaggeration.
But more than inflating my ego, what these reviews validate (yet again) to me is that all those weeks, months, and years of writing in isolation — doubting whether anyone would even read, let alone like the story — were all so worth it.
The series has gone on to sell thousands of books, hundreds of bundles, and clocked in over 280,000 hours (or 32 years) of listening time.
The best part is, we are only getting started.
Am I gloating a little?
Ab-so-bloody-lutely.
As I said above, there were a LOT of doubts plaguing me in the early days. A lot. For now, though, I just want to say a massive, whopping, yet incredibly rare…
THANK YOU.
Thank you for every book bought…
Thank you for every hour listened…
Thank you for every review left…
And, THANK YOU for suffering your daily host here at the Legion.
Without you cheeky but fiercely loyal rogues, there would be no TDR and certainly no Overlord & Saviour (I know, the horror).
Your fealty means more than you'll ever know.
