azarinth healer: hardback edition

Coming to a bookstore near you this fall!

In association with our friends at Aethon Books, Portal Books is very proud to announce that Azarinth Healer: Book 1 by Rhaegar, is getting a shiny, new hardback print edition. It will be on the shelves at your local bookshop on October 27th, 2026!

This AETHON: Vault project, which aims to get a bunch of awesome indie titles onto retail shelves, represents a massive step forward for the genre we all know and love. This once-niche fandom is finally garnering genuine mainstream attention. And it’s all thanks to you, the readers. Through your undying support, you have propelled series like Azarinth Healer to places we never thought possible.

And remember, pre-orders matter! The more books that are pre-ordered before launch, the higher the chances that we will finally get to see more LitRPG on retail shelves. Show them these novels deserve a place next to all the science fiction and fantasy greats. This is a big moment, not only for the Azarinth Healer, but for the genre as a whole.

In that spirit, we’re issuing a call to action. Tell your friends. Tell your family. Tell your D&D group. Tell the person reading opposite you on the subway. Word of mouth is what’s brought us this far, and from this point onward, the sky is truly the limit.
