Ancient Origins News
Update: September 25th 2018
So, an update on Ancient Origins book 7, The God Device. Plotting has begun and it’s on schedule for writing to begin this November, hurrah! I’m very pleased with what I have planned, and really can’t wait to get started on it now I know where it’s heading, sort of; I just hope you and everyone else who has stuck with the series so far will enjoy it, too. I would say I am going to mix things up a bit, with some strong sci-fi elements involved and something that will hopefully blow your socks off, or not as the case may be... Whatever items of clothing you do have left on after reading the book, however, fingers crossed you’ll enjoy it, as that’s the main thing, after all. I would say, considering the scale of what has come before, this book may end up being split into two again due to its potentially mammoth size. Yes, yes, I know, I said only 3 more books, although there’s still a very good chance it will be only 3 more if I can tie things up in book 7, and maybe, book 8, in a satisfactory fashion. The good news with this is, is that while book 7 and 8 may be released slightly later, the final book 9, will be released slightly earlier. Swings and roundabouts comes to mind. Anyway, that’s where things stand, although for those who particularly like dynamic female leads, here’s a link to a free ebook giveaway promotion chock full of women who, like a certain Sarah Morgan, like to kick some proverbial butt. (Promotion ends September 30th)
Enjoy!

NEW Update: August 28th 2018
So, it’s been nearly five months since I released the last two books, The Tenth Protocol and The Lost Prophet, and quite a few people have been asking when book 7 will be out, so here’s what I’m hoping will be the schedule for the final three instalments in the Ancient Origins series. Book 7, The God Device, will hopefully be out in late 2019, with the writing process beginning this November. Book 8 will be a year later in 2020, and Book 9, the grand finale, in 2021. All three books are likely to be quite long as there are a lot of ends to tie up, but I’m very excited about what comes next and can’t wait to start writing what I hope will be a satisfying conclusion to what has become a massive undertaking.
On other news, all six books in the series are now available worldwide on Amazon as paperbacks, although limited editions for the last two books are yet to be produced, but they will at some point become available on www.sancturian.com – and hopefully in the near future.
That’s all for now, but for those of you who are interested in my writing process here’s a little insight into how my process works, or doesn’t, as the case may be! I do tend to be a perfectionist, which is quite excruciating at times, although it does mean I rarely have to rewrite / redraft anything which is a plus, however, saying that, when things go wrong they go wrong in a big way and I'm left with a big mess that takes me some time to unravel. This is what happened with The Lost Prophet, although going on some of its reviews some might say I never sorted it out! It is the book I am most proud of writing, however, despite it also being the book with the lowest ratings. Going back to my writing process in general, I once described my method as "terror writing", mainly as I want the book I’m working on to be the best possible, plus I don't want anyone to be disappointed with it, or worse, find my characters and plots shallow or boring, however, I realise I will never please everyone, so the perfectionist in me just has to put up with that... Anyway, I hope this is enlightening to anyone who’s interested, although if you want to find out more you can always listen to a podcast I did with the talented William Oday:

NEW Update: March 31st / April 3rd 2018
The Tenth Protocol & The Lost Prophet
NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON!!!
Hello! Welcome to Ancient Origins: THE BIG LAUNCH!!
Promotional Video: https://youtu.be/tNgNzU14bwg
This book launch has been a long time coming, so much so, at times I thought it would never happen due to the problems I've had with the plots. However, for those of you who have stuck with me and supported me through my struggles, you have my DEEPEST THANKS, and I can now say to you that all the hard work is finally over! The Tenth Protocol & The Lost Prophet are both now available on Amazon Kindle!!! AT LAST!!
AMAZON LINKS:
The Tenth Protocol: http://a-fwd.com/asin-com=B07944G7Y3
The Lost Prophet: http://a-fwd.com/asin-com=B07BTK6ZYV
The paperbacks for both books will follow in due course, by the end of April, hopefully, along with books 2, 3 and 4, as only Revelations is currently available in the USA and all other Amazon stores. The paperbacks that are available are limited editions, and they are only books 1 through 4 via this website. I am still to decide when the Limited Editions paperbacks for books 5 and 6 will be released, perhaps later on in 2018.
Anyway, I think that's all for now. I hope you enjoy the reading what has turned into a 700 and 900 page double whammy, some of which is made up by the appendices. At the end of the second book, I have also added an extensive author note, along with an author addendum. These adds ons have taken on a slightly grandiose standpoint, so I hope you forgive my grandstanding, but due to the path The Lost Prophet took, I thought the book lent itself to such an addition. Time will tell if I've overdone it a bit, and with the plot itself, as I have pushed the boundaries with the book somewhat, but then what's life without a little risk?
My best wishes to you and Happy Easter!
Robert
NEW Update: February 27th 2018
Hey guys, quick update on proceedings. Both books are going forward as planned and the release date of the 31st March looks a certainty, save for any natural disasters or asteroids... Also, for anyone that wants to listen to my not so dulcet tones, here's a link to a very enjoyable podcast interview I did with the wonderful and talented William Oday, professional podcaster and author extraordinaire. It's quite long at nearly an hour, but Will is a great host and he choreographs everything perfectly. Enjoy!

NEW Update: January 30th 2018
Hey guys, just a quick update on the next books, The Tenth Protocol will be released on the 31st March and is now available for pre order on Amazon! (See promotional VIDEO BELOW with sound effects!) Amazon links below, too. The next book after that, book 6 of Ancient Origins, will be called The Lost Prophet and should be become available on Amazon at the same time as The Tenth Protocol becomes available to read, but The Lost Prophet will not be on pre order beforehand. So by the end of March they should both be released... finally! Hurrah!

BRAND NEW Update: December 30th 2017
Hello! I hope you had an enjoyable Christmas and are looking forward to the New Year. I thought I'd better give you an update on how things are progressing with The Tenth Protocol. As you know, I was hoping to have it released by now, but as with all things in life, things can take unexpected turns and this book has proven that time and again. So it's with much trepidation that I have to tell you it's still not going to be ready for another 8 to 10 weeks. Yes, it's not great news, but I am very pleased with how the book has turned out and I hope you will be too when it finally arrives. On the plus side, once again the book will be split in two, so you'll actually be getting two books, instead of one massive one. With the second book released some weeks after the first. This may or may not be a good thing, as I'm quite worried how the first book ends, as there are no resolutions to speak of. But I finally had to accept a split was the only option, as paperback constraints for a 1400 page book, or even an 1100 page book if compressed, is simply not possible using the print services available. Anyway, that's where we're at, I hope it's not too disappointing for you, but on the plus side, the finish line approaches!
As before though, I have some goodies for you, 4 limited time promotions, where you can download a host of free eBooks, which I hope will continue to keep you entertained while you wait for me to get my act together. Enjoy!

Latest Update: October 23rd 2017
Just thought I'd give you an update on how The Tenth Protocol is coming along. As usual there's good news and bad news. The good news is the cover is nearly complete (see below) and 1,230 pages have been written. The bad news is, it still might have 200 pages to go and then it needs editing. Yup, plot problems in a book of this size abound and my editors have been keeping me on my toes by getting me to rewrite, rewrite and rewrite again. With all this in mind it's looking like a 2018 release is inevitable :(
But as a thank you for sticking with me (and while I'm pulling out what's left of my hair!) here's a link to a special promotion for a huge selection of fantasy and sci-fi ebooks, which you can download for FREE until October 28th 2017, which will hopefully keep you entertained until The Tenth Protocol is finally released.

My sincerest apologies for the continued delay, but hopefully it won't be too much longer now.
My best wishes to you

Latest Update: 29 May / June 2017
The Tenth Protocol / Ancient Origins 5th book update (29 May 2017): Okay, I'm now 700 pages into the 10th Portocol, yep, still going! I think I'm almost writing 3 books in one, hence my headache and continued plot problems. I've pretty much tied the plot down now, well sort of, and I should be full speed ahead over the next few months trying to finish this beast of a book off. In the meantime, I've just uploaded a trailer for the first book, and will try and do one for the Tenth Protocol before it comes out. I think it looks pretty cool, although I wish it was a trailer for an Ancient Origins film rather than just a book, still Rome wasn't built in a day as they say. Enjoy!
p.s. it's better with the sound on
June 23rd 2017 update: 850 pages, I'm flying now! Hoping for 4 to 5 months til completion. I'm on a mission!!
Video archived.
Latest update: 22ndSeptember 2016
Update! The new book is going okay, slowly does it at the moment. Although I've had a naughty break to make some new covers for the eBooks. Also the titles for the books will be changing slightly, although paperbacks will be staying the same for the foreseeable . New titles are as follows:
2040 Revelations will now be called Ancient Origins: Revelations.
2041 Sanctuary (Dark Descent), will now be called Ancient Origins: Dark Descent. 2041 Sanctuary (Let There be Light), will now be called Ancient Origins: Let There Be Light. And 2041 Sanctuary (Genesis) will now be called Ancient Origins: Genesis. Simples! I'll also be dropping the confusing book 2, part 1 for Dark Descent and book 2, part two for Let There Be Light and book 2, part 3 for Genesis. Each one will now be just book 2, 3 and 4, which makes things a lot easier for all concerned ... I hope! New covers will be posted shortly ... and they'll go live within the week on Amazon websites. That's all for now, and any feedback on the new covers will be gratefully received. Sincerely yours. Robert
Latest update: 14th May 2016
Okay, the Ancient Origins News page is now being duplicated on the Ancient Origins Facebook page:
https://www.facebook.com/Robert.Storey.Ancient.Origins
I thought this was a good idea for anyone more Facebook orientated, also I was hoping it may boost my page 'Likes' on Facebook which are only in the low double digits, and half of them are from people I know! Yes, sadly this indicates my Facebook page is rubbish and I have no friends, although I am a writer and don't get out much so I should cut myself a little slack. Also, as it’s Facebook, if anyone wants to message or Friend request me you'll be able to do so.
I’m sure you don’t really want to hear about my social life, or lack thereof, so I’ll sign off with a final word on where I am in the Ancient Origins series. The re-work for 2040 Revelations has just been completed. It took longer to do than I thought it would; however, I have done some plot work for 2042 and I’m raring to get on with doing some more and then to begin the writing.
Regarding the 2040 rework, I’ve smoothed out the prose and added a few paragraphs here and there, plus two small scenes right at the end of the book, which I think gives more closure on the story than I initially provided. Also, one of these scenes is a subtle nod to one of the greatest movie franchises of all time, Indiana Jones, of which I’m a huge fan. If you’ve already bought the eBook, then you’ll be able to download the new version for free via your eReader device. If you want to buy the new 2040 Revelations, or borrow it via the Amazon library or using a Kindle Unlimited account, then follow the relevant links below.
Okay, that’s about all for now, take care and enjoy your summer!
Sincerely yours
Robert Storey
NEW FACEBOOK PAGE: 17th March 2016
Not sure if anyone will be interested in this, but I've finally created a proper author Facebook page. To be honest my social networking skills are minimal, but I will try and make it as interesting and informative as possible when I get the chance. So far there's a couple of book signing photos on there, some info about ebook prices on Amazon and a couple of other posts. The link can be found at the top right of this page, although be aware the twitter link next to it is inactive at the moment. Alternatively the direct link can be found here:

NEW RELEASES - LATEST UPDATE: 26th February 2016
At last, Genesis paperbacks are available after a hefty delay at the printers. I'm pleased with them though so the wait was worth it. Newsletter will be issued shortly along with an update on my plans for the next book in the series which I'll be starting some time in May once I have the plot roughed out. You may wonder what I'm doing in the meantime and all will be revealed in the newsletter, although that makes it sound like I could be releasing another book or short story which unfortunately I'm not, I am working though, not slacking off which I hope you'll be pleased to hear. Okay, as usual that's enough of my ramblings, enjoy your day whatever you're doing or wherever you may be.
Sincerely yours
Robert Storey
NEW RELEASES - LATEST UPDATE: 9th February 2016
Right, the Genesis proof has been approved today, now just waiting for final production run and we should hopefully receive the books by the end of next week, finally! Hurrah!! Newsletter to follow.
Sincerely yours
Robert Storey
NEW RELEASES - LATEST UPDATE: 28th January 2016
So, Let There Be Light books are now available, but unfortunately the printers have had a problem with the 2nd proof for Genesis and the new file has been sitting doing nothing for over a week. Clearly this is bad news, but they assure me the proof will be done by the end of this week. This means I won't receive it until next week and therefore the books won't be produced or delivered any earlier than February 5th, and realistically it's looking more like the second week in February until they're delivered which is pretty dire considering the schedule I had planned. Still, at least the first book is done and dusted, so one down, one to go. With all this in mind any orders for just Let There Be Light will be despatched asap, while double orders for LTBL and Genesis will be delayed until both are available, although we will contact you to see if you would like LTBL and Genesis shipped separately.
Okay, I think that's about it for now. I will be trying to create some kind of blog or website dedicated to Ancient Origins at some point, it's getting the time to do it that's the problem, but rest assured any news related to the series will be posted on this website until that time comes.
Hopefully my next update will have better news on the Genesis paperback, fingers and toes crossed!
Sincerely yours
Robert Storey
NEW RELEASES - LATEST UPDATE: 22nd January 2016
Right, the Let There Be Light paperbacks are looking like they'll be delivered by the middle of next week, but unfortunately the Genesis cover required some major work due to the proof's drab appearance. Who knew transferring what you see on-screen to print could be so difficult! Anyway I won’t go on about the frustrations of transferring RGB to CMYK, I will instead estimate the books to be ready for shipping, as much as I hate to say it, sometime in the first week of February. I'll also get a newsletter out when they're available. Apologies for the delay to all those waiting, I'll do everything I can to ensure that wait is as short as possible, fingers crossed the printers will come up with the goods in short order.
Sincerely yours
Robert Storey
NEW RELEASES - LATEST UPDATE: 11th January 2016
The paperbacks are now ready for pre-order. However, the proofs are yet to arrive, so please bear in mind the actual delivery of the books and subsequent shipping to you will depend on the proofs and then the ability of the printers to produce them in the allotted timeframe. If the proofs are pass muster, then the books should be shipped to you by the last week of January. If the proofs are bad, then it depends on what's wrong with them as to how soon the books will be shipped, but it is likely the first week in February. This is worst case scenario, but I'll keep you updated and send a newsletter when the proofs arrive for a definitive date.
Sincerely yours
Robert Storey
LATEST UPDATE: 1st January 2016
First of all, Happy New Year to you all. For all those waiting for the paperback release, don't worry, I haven't forgotten you. Apart from two days off for Christmas Day and Boxing Day, I've been flat out again working on getting the paperbacks ready for the printers. I had been hoping to get everything finished on New Year's Eve, however, that has proved optimistic to say the least. As of today, I've got both manuscripts ready for the printers, but the covers are yet to be finished and I'd rather not rush them out for a sake of a few days so it's looking like everything will be a go for the printers by the 5th or 6th of January, and then it's down to the printers to determine the turnaround. Hopefully they'll be available by the beginning of the last week in January, as long as the proofs come out as expected. Although there is no guarantee as colour saturation, transparencies and other nasties can sometimes turn up unexpected results when transferred from an RGB screen to CYMK print, as I know to my cost.
Also, during my hectic beavering, I had time to update the ebooks to smooth out some small imperfections, which included some gaps between lines of text that shouldn’t have been there and a couple of words in error that somehow snuck past undetected.
Anyway, back to the paperbacks, as soon as the files have gone to the printer's we'll get the pre-order links up on this site. Which reminds me, we'll also put up an order section for U.S. and any other non UK territories whereby all four books can be purchased and shipped as one order, which will reduce shipping costs and time. UPS 2 days by air to the USA would cost £25, so all 4 limited edition paperbacks delivered would be £60.96, or about $90.
Okay, it's time for an evenings rest before the cover onslaught begins tomorrow.
Happy New Year once again
Sincerely yours
Robert Storey
LATEST UPDATE: 24th December 2015
Both eBooks are live on Amazon and available to buy or borrow!
I formatted them in one day, so I hope they're all okay. They should be as I followed my standard eBook procedure, which is concise and normally accurate to provide a good ereader experience. If there are any glaring boo boos on my part please don't hesitate to get in touch by sending an email to:
I will be sending out a quick newsletter later today before I allow myself a deep sigh of relief and then its a couple of days of rest on Christmas day and Boxing Day and then I'll be onto sorting the paperbacks, although I having a sneaking suspicion I may do a little on Christmas day when no one's looking!
A little note on the page counts for the ebooks. Amazon has used their algorithm to estimate page length for each book. I think it puts LTBL @ 610 pages and Genesis @ 545 pages. Obviously this is incorrect for when the print versions are done this count will revert to the proper figures of 671pages for Genesis (including appendices) and 762pages for LTBL (inc. appendices). This is strange as the font size in the print books isn't massive by any means, about 11 points, so I can only assume that the majority of kindle devices are read with settings that enable a lot of text to be on the screen at any given time. Thinking about it, this probably makes sense as margins can be a lot smaller on a device than a physical book.
Lastly, I included a couple of poems at the end of the book, which may or may not appeal to anyone. They're my first attempts at the art of fluid prose and are a little on the dour side, so if you want to avoid being depressed over this happy season then they might be best avoided!
Okay, I think that's about it, I hope you enjoy the reads and, as always, if anyone is able to leave a review on Amazon that would be wonderful as while I am pleased with them, I never know if they're any good until I get feedback from the most important people in this whole process, and that's YOU! So, if there's anything you don't like, anything you love, or anything you hate, I always make a point to read my reviews to make sure I'm keeping on the right track. Obviously not everyone will like the books, it's impossible to please everyone, however it doesn't stop me from trying :)
Ok, it's time for a quick rest before I start on the newsletter. Take care of yourselves, and wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year
Sincerely yours
Robert Storey
LATEST UPDATE: 20th December 2015
Right, the 21st isn't going to happen, but I am still working flat out to get these books done. I have all the copy edits done, I'm just finalising what grammatical rules to break and which ones to abide by, as ever its flow vs the laws of grammar. The eBook covers are done and appendices are done. If I keep working like I am, then I'm looking at a 23rd, 24th or maybe even a 25th Dec release date. I won't stop until they're released and then I'll have a days rest and get started on the paperback pre-press process. Right, back to it!
Sincerely yours
Robert Storey
NEW UPDATE: 5th December 2015
Okay, I got the first manuscript back from my copy editor, the wonderful Julie Lewthwaite, two weeks ago and I’m nearly finished sorting out her amendments while she’s working on Genesis. So far it’s all going to plan, but the longer things go on the more days get eaten away. It’s looking – as long as I keep my nose firmly to the grindstone – like I will be able to get the ebooks on Amazon by the 21st of December so you’ll have them to read over Christmas which is what I’ve been working for as there was no way I wanted this to go into 2016. However, with the paperbacks requiring much more work, typesetting, cover design, printing, proof approval and the xmas holiday, I will aim for the manuscripts and cover designs to get to the printers by the 31st of December. But since it takes around three weeks to get them back, then it’s looking like they wont be available until the second, or sadly, even the third week in January. I will try my best to make sure it’s as early as possible though, as I know myself when waiting for a book release it becomes very annoying when it keeps getting put back. Just to let you know, I am feeling the same frustration, this book was supposed to be out in July! [Sigh] Still, at least there are two now I suppose.
Anyway, I better get back to work.
Sincerely yours
A slightly frazzled Robert Storey
NEW UPDATE: 31st October 2015
Okay, I'm working myself into the ground to get these books done, it's tough going but I'm getting there. Just doing a final re-read and smoothing out any last bumps and then if it passes muster with my beta readers, aka my editors, aka my parents, both books will be off to my copy editor faster than you can say 'phew'. Then its time to sort the appendices, amend the copy edit when I get it back and then all I have to do is get everything formatted, sort the covers, upload to Amazon and all the while sort out the printers for the paperbacks. If I say it quick I'm liable to avoid passing out. With all this in mind it's definitely looking like a December release, but I'll keep this page updated and a newsletter will follow at some point as well. In the meantime here's a pic of the finished manuscripts sans final smoothing.
NEW UPDATE: 17th September 2015
Right, so I've finished writing the books. Now I have to complete the mechanics, i.e. smooth out writing, add in some scenes and then it's off to be copy edited. Unfortunately all of this could take a couple more months as its 1,250 pages to cope with, so many apologies to anyone who's been waiting for this release since June, but I am getting there. So it's now looking like a November, or worst case scenario, a December release ... yikes. Overall though, I'm quite pleased with how things have gone since my plot nightmare I had to contend with a few months back, so fingers crossed you'll be pleased with the results. Although, as usual, any feedback is always really appreciated, be that via a review on Amazon which I will read and take note of, or sent directly from this website via the 'contact us' page. Okay, that's it for now, I better get back to it or it'll be the new year already!
Sincerely yours
Robert Storey
Update July/August 2015:
2041 Sanctuary (2: Let There Be Light)
2041 Sanctuary (3: Genesis)
Okay, an update on where I am on the next book in the Ancient Origins series. Do you want the good news or the bad news?
Okay, bad news first. I'm still immersed in writing and the end of the book needs a major rework, argh! Yes, not good as I wanted the book released by now. Although hopefully it should be ready in September 2015.
But now for the good news. As you can see on this page there seems to be not one, but two new books. And that's been the problem, ever since September last year I've been working hard on writing the next instalment in the series. So much so things have expanded somewhat so it appears I will have to split the book into two. So 2041 Sanctuary will now consist of three parts. I was loathe to go down this route for a number of reasons, most prevalent being I didn't want to cut the story in two because it may interrupt the flow of the read and secondly, and perhaps more importantly, I didn't want it to appear like a money making exercise. But as the book grew it came to a point where the paperback book would have reached around 1,200 pages, and ensuring the books stay uniform to the previous releases this would mean a book weighing in at nearly 1.4kg and 6cm thick or with the only other appropriate paper type available from my printers, a book nearly 11cm thick and around 1.1kg. Yes, weirdly thicker paper, but lighter overall, I can never get my head round that. Anyway to stop the wrist breaking weight of a 1.4kg book, or one that is two thick to read, I have decided, with much deliberation to split the book into two, so now 2041 Sanctuary will have three books (or parts). They will be as follows:
2041 Sanctuary (1: Dark Descent)
2041 Sanctuary (2: Let There Be Light)
2041 Sanctuary (3: Genesis)
Unfortunately this is not so good for paperback readers as you'll have twice the cost, although there will be two books to look forward to rather than just one and they'll be limited editions and can be signed and personalised just for you which I hope eases the pain somewhat. Regarding ebooks, since weight etc isn't an issue I could have kept Let There Be Light to a single volume, however, to stop confusion abounding I will have to split the ebook too. With the ebook, however, I will be able to split the cost in half for each volume, as unlike the paperback there are no production costs involved. Therefore, Let There Be Light @ 1200pages was going to be priced at $7.99 / £6.99, now Let There Be light @ 700 pages will be $3.99 / £3.49 and Genesis @ 500 pages will be $3.99 / £3.49, or thereabouts as these prices, like the covers, are still subject to slight changes.
Right, that's about it for now, I better get back to my headache, I mean writing, and hopefully it wont be too long before both books will be available to read. Then all I have to worry about is if you guys like them or not!
Sincerely yours
Robert Storey
