Author of The Relics of War, The Caein Legacy, & Wraith and the Revolution
Celebrating Human Artists My social media feeds have been packed with anti-AI posts for months now, but I recently realized something. With all the discourse going on about how bad AI is for the environment, how it’s taking jobs, and hurting human creators, there have been very few posts in my feed actually celebrating those […]
Typos, Glitches, and Postal Fails: The Unexpected Quirks of Publishing a Book At this point in my authoring career, I’ve published 10 full-length novels, 1 novella, 1 short story, and now, an anthology. While I’ve ironed out most of the issues I ran into early on, there are still so many things that can go […]
Experimenting as I write With every book/series project I’ve worked on, I’ve done something different. I mix things up partly because I like the challenge, and partly because it prevents me from getting bored. And trust me, no one wants that. The Relics of War With the Relics of War series, I wrote multiple viewpoints […]
Huge News: You can now buy direct from me! I think the headline says it all, but I now have a shop on my website! You can buy paperbacks, hardcovers, or ebooks direct from me. No more going to a retailer (unless you really want to.) You can browse the new shop here! This has […]
People Just Want Dragons Let me start off by saying I love dragons. I have a few as decorations in my office. I like reading about them. I also write about them on occasion. My logo is a dragon. But if you get into certain social media circles, there’s definitely a vocal group who think […]

Most questions were directed at Wraith and the Revolution (since that’s what I’ve been promoting the most), but Wraith has been with me for so long that I have a […]
Am I Branching Out? Not Really. Since the release of Wraith and the Revolution, I’ve been asked several times about the “shift” from fantasy to science-fiction in my writing, and each time, that question has caught me completely by surprise. The fact is, I haven’t “shifted” or “branched out” from fantasy at all. Sci-fi has […]
All of my Main Characters I was bored recently and decided to make a list of every main character that has appeared in my published and to-be published books. This was a “just for fun” exercise, but maybe you’ll find it interesting too. So here they are, in alphabetical order: Andrew Caein Books: Exile, Guardian, […]
Hunted is 2 years old! October 20, 2020 was the release date for Hunted, my urban fantasy standalone. In the grand scheme of life, 2 years isn’t very long, but it feels like forever ago (and not just because of the pandemic.) I have learned so much since that book’s release. It was my first […]
An Update on Hunted: New Cover Art + Hardcover Edition As many of you know, I’ve been focused on promoting The Relics of War trilogy for much of this year, as books 1 and 2 have released along with the companion novella. But I’ve been secretly working in the background on an update to my […]
