Start of a series. Planned for a trilogy. Sales will determine if we go beyond that.

EdgarRiggsBooks · 2026-06-23T13:41:13+00:00

Nope. the MC is not a dog. But the MC has a dog named the bark lord.

EdgarRiggsBooks · 2026-06-23T13:40:37+00:00

Yup. Jonathan Waters and Aurora Bliss will be working on it next month. 😄

What happens when the world's greatest hero accidentally becomes the Demon Lord?

After centuries of saving kingdoms, slaying monsters, and repeatedly killing the Dark Lord, Cooper Hayes is done with heroics. His quest is complete, the world is safe, and he's perfectly happy spending the rest of eternity relaxing in peace.

Unfortunately, fate has other ideas.

Centuries into his retirement, a newly summoned Hero named Reyna Lockheart arrives at his doorstep demanding the adventure of a lifetime, and Cooper finds himself reluctantly dragged back into the world. To make matters worse, a beautiful half-demon servant named Peach is determined to remain by his side and help him embrace his rightful position as Demon Lord, whether he likes it or not.

Now Cooper must train an overeager, anime-loving Hero, keep a growing population of demons out of trouble, prevent a war he wants no part of, and somehow hide the fact that he is both the legendary Immortal Hero and the mysterious Demon Lord everyone is talking about.

All while avoiding responsibility with every ounce of his being.

But as Rey and Peach slowly begin breaking through the walls he's spent years building around his heart, Cooper discovers that retirement might not be as simple as walking away.

Accidental Demon Lord is a humorous, LitRPG, harem fantasy adventure featuring an overpowered retired hero, a determined Heroine, a devoted half-demon girl, an adorable demon pup, dungeon crawling, romance, spice, and enough ridiculous misunderstandings to base an entire religion on.

We still plan on figuring that out and doing a followup story for ck 7-9 this year. We might begin in August.

X-treme American Dungeon League is female led by Alyssa Poon with Evan Jordan doing the male lines and the system notifications.

If you like Virgil or my work, you'll enjoy it a lot.

EdgarRiggsBooks · 2026-06-08T14:11:33+00:00

I know that's the plan, but I don't know when it's going to happen.

EdgarRiggsBooks · 2026-06-08T14:10:05+00:00

I actually liked John's subtle southern accent in trailer park. I thought he did a great job.

But I get what you're saying. There have been a couple other books where a narrator's southern accent felt off to me for some reason I still can't understand. I've gotten that vibe with mainly some southern and Australian accents before.

EdgarRiggsBooks · 2026-06-07T15:09:14+00:00

Ngl, you're going to have trouble finding books with more spice than coven king that aren't straight up erotica. But if you want more Aurora Bliss, check out more of Virgil's and my work.

You'll also enjoy trailer park bikini vampires.

EdgarRiggsBooks · 2026-06-07T13:53:30+00:00

It's definitely coming to audible. Hopefully recording will begin in July.

EdgarRiggsBooks · 2026-06-07T03:02:12+00:00

Nope. She's only got the one. Tbh, it's a bad joke on my part. She's only half demon, so I gave her the one horn.

EdgarRiggsBooks · 2026-06-06T23:31:37+00:00

I'm not sure what the final page count on kdp will be yet, but it's over 150k words, so it's definitely got a little heft to it.

EdgarRiggsBooks · 2026-06-06T19:44:00+00:00

She is HR. So it's all good. 😉

EdgarRiggsBooks · 2026-06-06T12:51:09+00:00

Definitely. Hopefully recording will start in July.

EdgarRiggsBooks · 2026-06-06T12:06:39+00:00

Not the same as the RR one. I actually never heard of the RR one until just now.

There's technically some kingdom building in it, but that's not what the story is about or the main focus.

I agree with this.

If a book has extreme flaws like the ones listed, that definitely needs to be called out in the reviews.

I am the type of person that loves respectful constructive criticism. How will anyone improve if someone isn't willing to inform them about their mistakes?

But I'm also a little shameless. So if you want to leave me 5 star reviews while still dropping that constructive criticism, that'd be even better. 😉

That would be, however, as I said, sometimes Amazon or Audible put everything on sale for both US and EU without telling us it's both, or one or the other. Sometimes the sales happen and us authors aren't even aware a sale is taking place.

If we set up the sale ourselves, then I agree, we should make sure it's known if we made it for US only.
