Latest Updates from Our Project:

Edge Edition Printing Update
5 months ago – Mon, Nov 17, 2025 at 10:01:43 AM

Hey all!

Thanks everyone with your patience thus far on this campaign! It seems we've been handed curveball after curveball, and unfortunately, we've got a little more of a delay ahead of us.

If you aren't privy to the most recent delay, you can check out our update HERE.

TL;DR, there was a major issue in printing the cases (the hard book cases under the jacket) that resulted in sub-par printing despite using our favorite material (IMPRIMEX). Our printer caught this issue, but did not have enough IMPRIMEX on hand to reprint them, and the factory that produces IMPRIMEX couldn't get more to them for 8 weeks. The printer did their job and did offer a different solution (using a material called PRINTEX), but Bryce personally decided the print quality on PRINTEX wasn't up to par for a $50+ books, especially when some of you paid $100+ for both. So we waited the 8+ weeks to get IMPRIMEX in stock again.

Fast forward to now... 

The IMPRIMEX has been received by the printer and is in the process of printing the cases as we speak! We've been informed that production is moving steadily ahead, albeit a bit slower than anticipated. We're in contact with the printer weekly to ensure things continue to move as planned. For now, take a look at the finished painted book blocks below!

Thanks again, everyone. We understand delays aren't the greatest of news to hear, but we appreciate you stickin it out with us. We promise these will be worth the wait! Talk soon!

A Quick Check In...
5 months ago – Fri, Oct 24, 2025 at 06:04:11 AM

Hey Everyone!

While we're awaiting to hear from the printer regarding the Edge Editions, today, we wanted to take a moment to remind everyone how you can access your pledge! As most (if not all) of the standard hardcovers and paperbacks have been sent out, we wanted to get the ball rolling and check in with folks in case anyone has a change in address. Now is a perfect time! Using the following link, enter the email address that's attached to your Kickstarter account, and you should be able to pull your pledge right up!

If you have any questions, please check out the campaign FAQs and if you need additional help, feel free to email us at [email protected]. We're open Monday-Friday 8am-4pm (excluding US holidays)!

First batch of books shipping out for non-US backers
6 months ago – Thu, Sep 25, 2025 at 11:13:30 AM

Hey everyone!

We can officially confirm that the first batch of Stormweaver books (non-edge editions) for backers outside the US has begun! Apologies for the short delay!

If this includes you, expect your pledge to be processed starting tomorrow and over the next few days. So keep an eye out for the tracking email! :)

For anyone who ordered an Edge Edition...

As a reminder, these books were delayed. You can read more about that here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wraithmarked/stormweaver1and2/posts/4455090

Regardless of where you are in the world, your entire pledge will be shipped at the same time. For example, if you picked up an Edge Edition of each book but also grabbed paperbacks of each, all 4 of those books will be shipped together. Depending on the size of your pledge, we may need to pack multiple boxes, so you may get more than one tracking number. 

But you'll know before we get that rolling.

That said, if your pledge includes an Edge Edition, it is never a bad idea to update your address information ahead of time. You can do that using the link below:

As always, if you require assistance with your pledge, need to change your shipping info, or have another question, please send an email to [email protected]. We’re open Monday-Friday, 8am-4pm EST, and will be happy to help however we can (it usually takes 3 to 5 business days to get back to you, but we do answer all tickets in need of a response).

Shipping Beginning Today! And An Apology Regarding Signatures.
7 months ago – Mon, Aug 25, 2025 at 11:50:17 AM

Hi all, Bryce here!

Got a couple of things to cover with y'all today so we're going to jump right in!

Shipping Update!

We wanted to check in first to let y'all know that the 48-hour address lock is upon us. Once those fully lock, we'll be able to begin fulfillment for everything but the edge editions for both US orders as well as non-US orders. While this is the smaller portion of the campaign, it'll still take some time to pack and process for folks. We're excited to begin!

An Apology: Many of the Signatures Came Out... Not Great.

Upon receiving any shipment of books at Wraithmarked HQ, we immediately crack a few boxes open to take a look and assess quality, check for any damages, printing errors, etc. Unfortunately, upon opening a couple boxes (which became four, which became ten...), we realized that some kind of reaction must have happened between the paper and the metallic sharpies used to sign these many of these books. Take a look below.

As you can hopefully see, there is a signature, but the metallic quality has vanished across many of the books. You can still see the signature in all lights, but it's faint. We wanted to show you all before we began shipping so there would be no surprises. Unfortunately, this is not something we can completely amend... Not only would the books have to be entirely remade, y'all would be waiting... an obscene amount of time for them all to be completed - more than you already have been given the production and printing delays. Replacing them or resigning just isn't in the cards.

Because of this unforeseen mishap, we still want to try and make it up to those backers who are bummed. We would like to offer a $5 refund to anyone who would like to claim it as compensation for this mistake! Just comment "REFUND PLEASE" below, and we'll get that processed for you as soon as we can.

Please keep in mind, this campaign was funded in December 2023. We regrettably will not be able to refund the card used if it is not the same exact card you pledged with. If the card you originally pledged with is invalid, expired, etc., we will be messaging you directly about creating a ticket to get the issue resolved outside of Kickstarter.

As a final note, this refund will remain available until March 1st of 2026, after which point the refund window will close so that the team can focus on other projects appropriately. After this coming week we will be checking this thread probably once a week or once every two weeks, so if you are reading this after mid September of 2025, please be patient until we check in.

SO... with that in mind, we are sorry for this occurrence and we're looking into different types of signing tools and paper to ensure this won't happen again. We will process any requested refunds as soon as we can. We have a very small team and we expect a couple waves of folks visiting this update. Rest assured, we will address every comment in time!

Much love and appreciation,

-Bryce

Campaign Shipping to Begin!
7 months ago – Wed, Aug 20, 2025 at 08:47:28 AM

Howdy, all!

Following up on Bryce's previous update, we wanted to let y'all know that we (and our international fulfillment partner) have received the standard hardcovers and paperbacks! Because the Edge Editions are still a little ways out, we wanted to get started on what shipping we could.

So, if you were a backer who did not have either Edge Edition in their pledge, we will be sending address lock emails from Backerkit later this morning. If this applies to you and your pledge, you will have 48 hours to update your shipping address. Once those addresses lock, we will start shipping, both to international and to US backers.

  • If you are expecting a change of address in the next few weeks, either provide your new address or a different permanent address that's close enough for you to pick them up.
  • When this window expires, we cannot guarantee that we'll be able to change the address before your pledge ships.  
  • Once addresses lock, we'll provide our international fulfillment partner with the shipping list for this campaign. They will generally begin fulfillment within a day of receipt, however, depending on their workload it may take up to two weeks for them to begin fulfillment (though this is rare). Please be aware that our fulfillment partner packs and ships pledges in an order that maximizes their efficiency. It is not something that we dictate to them. 
  • When your order ships you will get an email with tracking information. Please be aware that it may take a day or two for the tracking information to update. 

If you have questions at any point in this process, please send us a message here on Kickstarter or via email at [email protected]. Even though it is rare, it may take between 3-5 business days to respond (though usually faster) and we do not work on holidays or weekends. We appreciate your patience.

A Note for Backers in the UAE...

To avoid excessive delays in shipping, please make sure to supply a PO Box number in addition to your address information. We have had repeated issues delivering pledges without them. 

For Edge Edition Backers...

As Bryce himself mentioned in our last update, we're currently waiting on the case material for the edge editions of Iron Prince and Fire & Song to arrive at the printers. Once those are printed and sent off to the docks, we'll be posting a similar update for y'all to double check your addresses before they lock to fulfill. Since we have some time now, please be sure to check over your address using the link below!
