Author's Notes

Hello guys,

My name is Bruno, and I'm currently 23 years old as of writing this. The Hyberians is a story I've been working on since 2012/2013, and I've finally managed to get it to a point where I am able to release it publicly. The latest chapter, titled "Forgotten", is the final chapter I'll be posting on Webnovel and is the midpoint of Volume 1.

I've spent the better part of the last ten years working on all of the lore and background information that makes the world and that most people won't see for many more years to come. This also allowed me to mature more as a person and improve my writing in the meantime. Though I still don't consider it phenomenal and am trying to improve it daily, I now feel comfortable sharing it with you guys.

That being said, I've been doing this pretty much by myself (as I'm sure most people start), and having a family that doesn't speak much English, it's been tough to get any feedback for the story. I'm not saying this so you could pity me. On the contrary, I am actively looking for feedback, something I had hoped posting (somewhat) weekly on Webnovel would've gotten me. That wasn't the case, which is fine.

I've been considering my options lately, and seeing that the engagement on WebNovel hasn't been as good as I hoped it would be, I will publish it as a finished book on Amazon instead, which I am hoping will reach a broader audience in a shorter amount of time. Publishing it as a finished product on Amazon will also allow me to better format my book with unique fonts for the languages, as well as chapter titles and PoV switches, as WebNovel only allows for Bold or Italic formatting (which is obviously very limiting.

If you are one of the few people who have been tolerant enough to make it this far into the book, thank you. From the bottom of my heart, I hope that you've enjoyed the story so far. Any feedback is greatly appreciated, and if you want to get in touch, here's how:

Once again, thank you so so much for reading the book and this message so far, and if you've made it here, get in touch, and I may or may not give you a free copy of the final book as a token of gratitude for being one of the first supporters of my work :)
