happy (belated) Edna Fisher day to all who celebrate
happy (belated) book birthday to me! I had this newsletter all ready to go for Friday, aaaaaaaaaaaaand then I forgot to schedule it, whoops. so we’re celebrating today instead.
ANYWAY.
The Remarkable Retirement of Edna Fisher is out in the world in hardcover, paperback, and e-book. she’s available at major retailers, as well as direct from the publisher, and through IndieBound.
if you purchase through BookShop, I now have affiliate links: hardcover here, paperback here. for other vendors, visit my linktree!
the audiobook is also fully funded, which means she’ll be available as an audiobook sometime in the not-too-distance future! preorder the audiobook here.
next month I’m sure I’ll have some reflections on debuting, but today there is only screaming, vibing, & basic book info.
book description
you’re never too old for adventure.
when you’re an old woman armed with nothing but gumption and knitting needles, stopping a sorcerer from wiping out an entire dragon-fighting organization is a tall order. no one understands why 83-year-old Edna Fisher is the Chosen One, destined to save the Knights from a dragon-riding sorcerer bent on their destruction. after all, Edna has never handled a magical weapon, faced down a dragon, or cast a spell. and everyone knows the Council of Wizards always chooses a teenager—like the vengeful girl ready to snatch Edna’s destiny from under her nose.
still, Edna leaps at the chance to leave the nursing home. with a son long dead in the Knights’ service, she’s determined to save dragon-fighters like him & ensure other mothers don’t suffer the same loss she did. but as Edna learns about the abuse in the ranks & the sorcerer’s history, she questions if it’s really the sorcerer that needs stopping—or the Knights she’s trying to save.
