With Reckoning out this week, what else could this month's giveaway be other than a stack of Songs of Chaos hardbacks. These are normal ones, but they're posher than usual (thanks to some help from The Broken Binding) higher quality paper - hence why they look extra CHONKY!

It's actually finally here. 2 years of work. Reckoning is OUT. And I believe now safely live worldwide. There is a story recap inside the book in all formats. Those looking to grab a regular HB, I've flicked the feeds to go live but it will take a few days for the stores to catch up. Keep an eye out

Tomorrow's the day! Who's ready to see what adventures our friends Holt and Ash have to face?

Just two more sleeps!! (and perhaps only one sleep for those super keen beans who might wait until midnight to start on the ebook/audiobook!)

Who's ready? Only 3 days left until Reckoning is officially out in the world! Do you have any predictions going into book four? 👀 #songsofchaos #michaelrmiller #dragonfantasy #reckoning #newrelease

Only a week to go until Reckoning but I think Ash is getting sick of me telling him about it. I've just finished reading Small Gods by Pratchett! What are you all reading this week? #songsofchaos #michaelrmiller #booksky

A lot of exciting events are coming up! Save this post so you don't miss any of them. #michaelrmiller #songsofchaos #reckoning #comingsoon #booktour #fantasyauthor #booksky

Some of these early reviews of Reckoning give me the biggest smile. What a relief! 😮‍💨 #arcreaders #arcteam #reckoning #michaelrmiller #songsofchaos #dragonfantasy #booksky

This one is for the audiobook lovers. A little teaser to start whetting the appetite. #audiobook #audiobooklistener #reckoning #michaelrmiller #peterkenny #fantasyauthor #booksky

Haven't got your own Rake yet? Are you worried he won't approve of your home? Have no fear. Book Rake might be hard to handle, but plushie Rake is comfortable anywhere - no seriously, look he's everywhere. And not a single complaint. Amazing! @youtooz.bsky.social

Even though Reckoning is already with the arc readers, I still wanted to share these comments from my beta readers! #booksky #micharlrmiller #songsofchaos

My extra copies of the Ash plushie arrived some time ago - finally got around to opening them up and starting my very own lunar flight! #songsofchaos #michaelrmiller #dragonfantasy #fantasybooks #dragons #ashplushie #youtooz #bookish

It's nail biting waiting for the first reviews of a book. You can imagine my relief when the first ones are like these! #songsofchaos #reckoning #earlyreviews #arcteam #michaelrmiller #dragons #dragonfantasy #booksky

Master Rake is now on sale! In plush form he can’t chide you or make snarky remarks about your swordsmanship, but he and his wicked grin will be there through thick and thin! Order Rake now until to Sept 3rd but after that he’ll be gone forever! @youtooz.bsky.social

Back mid July, Pegah and I took a trip through to Bath to support the launch of The Immeasurable Heaven by our friend @caspargeon.bsky.social (i.e. Tom Toner). Go support Caspar by grabbing a copy right now!! #booksky #authorfriends #bookish

This was Ash's face when he heard some ARC readers have already finished Reckoning 😂 Psst... the Rake plushie goes on sale in 48 hours! #songsofchaos #michaelrmiller #dragonfantasy #fantasyauthor #fantasy #ashthecat #catsandbooks #reckoning #arcteam #booksky

Been some updates so time for another Shelfie Sunday. Imma need to get me more shelves. Also space for more shelves. To get space I'll need to move - that's a valid reason, right?  #shelfiesunday #michaelrmiller #songsofchaos #dragonfantasy #author #authorlife #booksky

Last week I visited Manchester for the recording of Reckoning! It's always a pleasure to hang out 'behind the scenes' for a while, meet the studio team, and catch up with the epic Peter Kenny. I recorded a few bits and pieces myself so you'll hear me in your ears again come September 15th!!

Rake is coming! Behold his magnificence! You'll be able to order Rake from August 6th to September 3rd. As with the Ash plush, this is a limited order window. Once the window closes, he'll be gone forever. #booksky #songsofchaos #dragon #fantasy

Happy Monday! It's been a bit hot here in the UK. Ash's strategy has been (for some reason) to hide on the book shelf and be moody. Whatever works! I've just made a start on the Left Handed Booksellers of London by Garth Nix What are you reading this week?? #booksky

The gods of UK Amazon parted the clouds and are basically giving my books away! #dragonfantasy #kindleUK #booksky #michaelrmiller

Through July 13th for Prime members, Audible is running this huge discount on The Dragons Blade Trilogy. You can get the entire series (46 hours of it) for just $5.99. It's an epic story about redemption, of the struggle of humans and dragons to coexist, and cripplingly addictive magic. #booksky

Be careful what you wish for. Reckoning comes out Sept 15th 🎉 Pre-order your copy now! Want to be one of the first people to read it? ARC sign ups are open right now! #michaelrmiller #songsofchaos #reckoning #fantasybooks #dragonfantasy #booksky #fantasyauthor

🚨 Exciting news! 🚨 We are opening a few more spots for my ARC teams! 🎉 If you have any questions about the application or the teams, feel free to message my PA Stacey. You can email her at [email protected] 🔗 InB!o #books #arc #author #fantasyauthor #dragonfantasy #booksky

June’s Miller Monthly has landed—and it’s one for the true sci-fi diehards. 💫 I’m giving away the Easton Press leather-bound edition of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams. That’s all five books in the “trilogy,” plus a bonus short story—bound together in a collector’s volume.

The most important rule is DON’T PANIC! #millermonthly #booksky #teaser #giveaway #fantasyauthor

I've mentioned the difficulty I've had in getting the paperback of Reckoning up for pre-order. Issues are still ongoing, but I've made enough headway, I think it's time to kick things off.

If you need me, no you don't. This is my existence now. #fantasyauthor #songsofchaos #michaelrmiller #booksky #thedragonsblade #dragonfantasy

Even though in this series the dragons are in their human forms, you should always be cautious around them. While waiting for Reckoning, why not check out The Dragon’s Blade trilogy? 🤷🏻‍♂️ #fantasyauthor #songsofchaos #michaelrmiller #booksky #thedragonsblade #dragonfantasy

Happy Monday! Hopefully you face the week ahead less startled than Ash. I've started listening to Knots and Crosses by Ian Ranking 🎧 what are you reading/ listening to? #booksky #author #fantasyauthor

I recently listened to Tom Shippey's "Author of the Century," a deep dive into Tolkien's work and the myriad critical responses to it. I thoroughly enjoyed it! For a book that leans academic, it was easy to follow - I wish more of the articles I had to read at Uni had been written like this

Can't Talia ever catch a break? Reckoning comes out Sept 15th. Don't forget to preorder your copy 👀 #songsofchaos #author #booksky #fantasyauthor #michaelrmiller

A much needed break to my favorite city in the world. We spent a long weekend catching up with old friends (some I hadn't seen in years!), walking around the beautiful streets of Old and New Town, peering into estate agent windows, and stumbling into bookshop after bookshop.
