Thank you for your interest in beta and gamma reading!

Many people say they want to be involved, but that's before they know what it takes. So that's what this survey is here for. The steps are as follows:

The next book to enter the Beta & Gamma program is Farilane (Book #2 of The Rise and Fall series). This series is a bit unusual in that (a) there is large amount of time between each book and (b) follows a different set of characters. So, that means reading Nolyn is NOT a requirement for participation with this book. In fact, we probably should have a few people in the program who have not read Nolyn yet. That said, you can also use this form to sign-up for other books, although it will be some time before those beta/gamma programs begin and we don't yet have dates for them.

The dates for the beta/gamma for Fairlane are as follows:

  • Beta: Dec 20,2021 - Jan 10, 2022
  • Gamma: Feb 10,2022 - Feb 24,2022

If these dates DO NOT work for you, please don't sign up for the Farilane Beta/Gamma
