About this listen

How does a con man survive with no one around to fool but himself? Who does a knight battle when the demons in the dark begin to pale next to his own? And what, exactly, does a minotaur do when he finally gets a vacation day?

These are stories from the world of Ethereal Earth, a place where legends and myths hide among us in plain sight, and occasionally just need to get some laundry done. Here you’ll find scenes that didn’t have a place in the main series, with new events that fall between the first three books to expand the lore and give fresh insight into some of your favorite characters - all with the same snarky and sinister mix you know and love. And maybe a few secrets too, if that’s your kind of thing.

Short Changed is the first story collection in the Ethereal Earth series, an ongoing tale of adventure and excitement and intrigue, and a group of people who didn’t ask for any of it.

I love loved this but WTF Nextbook

my title says it all just want to know when the next book is man. it's awesome so far and when you started talking about the Side Stories and how it could go in all these different directions from the main story sounds really awesome. I guess you have another job and that could definitely hold things up. I just hope you get out another book soon keep them coming man you're very talented.

Must listen if you've listened to the series.

It was really interesting to learn how some events happened to cause events in the main story. Learning more about the characters own stories gives a deeper understanding of their motivations and personality as well as making them seem more real.

Great stories

Very enjoyable stories. I think they should be part of the books. They add depth and understanding to the characters.

Excellent addition to an excellent series

Great book. While not part of the main series it helps add a richness and a depth to the characters and the world. Gives a glimpse at a side of the characters we haven't had a chance to see in the main series. Possibly introducing some new characters I hope!

Auditory Ethereal Omakase

Once again, preformed by the author with professional quality reading and acting, not something that gets written often.
Like an elegant omakase meal for Ethereal Earth, served in small quantities by a master. Except maybe without the elegance (after all it's Gabe, Heather, and cast) unless you include its descriptions of wraith dismemberment. Similar risk of food poisoning but less raw fish.

Brilliant

James' story is worth the book alone. I always wanted more from that character and this collection did that. The Knights of Solomon could be a whole series by itself. This book fills in some of the gaps that may have left people wanting. If you are a fan of the series this is a must have. Truthfully, the last story could hook you into the series even if you haven't experienced it yet.

Great world building

This collection of short stories gives a lot of insight into other characters in the Ethereal Earth series, and serves as great world building too. If you have favorite side characters or just want to learn more about the power structure certain characters are part of, I highly recommend this book!

Great set of stories in the series!

This is a group of stories from The Ethereal Earth series, and inside there are stories that fall between Hero Forged and Fate Lashed, and stories that fall between Fate Lashed and Blight Marked. So, read those first, if possible!

Many of the stories follow Gabe and Heather, who are the main protagonists throughout the series, however there are a bunch of stories that follow the Knight, Leopold, and the minotaur, Dante. I really enjoyed seeing some things from the point of view of Leopold, as I've always thought that he's an interesting character.

Josh Erikson narrates this little book of short stories, just as he has narrated all of the Ethereal Earth series, and he's consistently done a great job with it! His narration has only gotten better and better in my opinion as the series has gone on.

So, all told, if you've enjoyed the Ethereal Earth series, you'll very likely enjoy Short Changed! You should definitely give it a listen!

mostly worth it/harrmless

I have most deff read all 3 and I still need to reread all 3 to know for sure where these all went properly. the only one I wasn't really sure on was the text msgs before James Jimenez part. small SPOILER was that supposed to be Eva/Evan? I don't remember a Kurt. over all I enjoyed the content, but would like it more durning the books. I'd prefer the book be 35 hours than 12. I got the email and instantly bought this and was "aw man. thought this was 4". so the name was funny but I wouldn't say I got "Short Changed"
