After months of hard work, anticipation, and a lot of late nights, I am beyond thrilled to announce that Hero Rising, the first book in The Dawnbringer Chronicles, is officially available for purchase! This journey has been a long one, and I can’t thank everyone enough for their encouragement and support along the way. Today marks the start of my novel’s life in the hands of readers, and I’m excited to see where it goes from here.


Let’s dive into all the details about where you can find Hero Rising, what’s coming next, and what you can expect from this fantasy adventure.


Where to Find Hero Rising

Getting the book out on multiple platforms was a big priority, as I wanted to ensure everyone could find a format that suited their reading style. Here’s where you can get your copy:

  1. Amazon: The Paperback version is ready to ship! If you’re an ebook lover or hardcover collector, don’t worry; Amazon is in the final stages of processing those formats, and they’ll be available in the coming days. I’ll keep you updated as soon as they go live.

  2. Love & Lore Bookstore: For those who love supporting indie bookstores, you’ll be able to find the Paperback edition at Love & Lore. I’m thrilled to be working with an indie seller because it’s a way to reach readers who prefer that more personal touch.

  3. Barnes & Noble (Online): If B&N is your go-to, you’re in luck! Paperback and ebook versions are both available right now, and the Hardcover edition will be following in about a week or so.

For easy access, I’ve linked all of these directly on my website: jacobsansoucie.com/hero-rising. It’s a one-stop shop to help you decide which format and retailer work best for you.



Signed Copies for Those Who Requested


I was genuinely blown away by the number of requests for signed copies. To everyone who reached out asking for a personal touch in their editions, I’m honored, humbled, and a little surprised! Having Hero Rising in its published form is surreal enough; the idea that readers want an autographed copy is icing on the cake.


For those interested in a signed edition, I’ll be making these available on my website in the next couple of weeks. Once I receive the initial order of books, I’ll start signing and personalizing copies to ship out. Keep an eye on my newsletter or check the website periodically for when those signed copies become available.



Why I’m Excited About This Release


Seeing Hero Rising go from an idea to a physical book has been nothing short of a dream come true. This project has consumed countless hours of brainstorming, writing, editing, and re-writing. Yet, every moment spent was worth it, knowing that readers will soon be able to enter the world I’ve created and experience Holland’s journey.


Writing Hero Rising wasn’t just about crafting an exciting story, though that’s a big part of it. It was about exploring themes of courage, resilience, and the fight for dignity in the face of overwhelming odds. Through Holland’s story, I hope readers feel empowered to stand up against the odds in their own lives, whatever they may be.

Final Thanks and Thoughts


Before I wrap up this post, I want to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has supported me on this journey. Writing a book is no small feat, and knowing that I have such an incredible network of friends, family, and readers has been the motivation I needed to keep going.


A special shoutout goes to my amazing wife, Miracle. Her encouragement and support during the late nights, early mornings, and all the in-betweens have been invaluable. She’s been there every step of the way, cheering me on, and I couldn’t have done this without her.

Thank you all for taking the time to check out this blog, and thank you for your support.
