Michael Stagg I'm halfway through it already! Thank you for again working with the amazing George Newbern! He is the reason I found you and Nate all the way back on book number one. It doesn't get much better than George and a good story! I love the way he reads your writing. I think your styles compliment each other very well.

Awesome. George is one of my favorite narrators. Like reuniting with an old friend.

Got my audiobook first thing this morning! Love Nate Shepherd. Great character great narrator!

I really hope this isn't the last for Nate. The writing and how everything comes together is so fantastic. Definitely looking forward to Mason and hope we get Olivia and Cades story. ❤️❤️

Listening now.... i love this series.

One of the most satisfying Nate Shepherd books yet and an excellent example of why I love legal mysteries.

Loved your latest book, thank you. you are one of a few authors that I like to re-listen on Audible. What do you like to read? Or what authors do you feel have influenced you? I have enjoyed learning about the "local flavor" of each book, and I also appreciate the family interactions as they are close to home here.

Finished it a couple of days ago and I am sad there’s not another one out! It was just as good as the others, excellent plot, excellent characters, and many stir prizes along the way. I got on your mailing list and read the PDF of “The Evidence”. That was a teaser for sure! Will there be more of the backstory coming out?

These books have a deliberate but good pace. In "CS" I didn't actually know how it was going to be resolved but it was done so effectively. I like all the attention to detail in the trial prep chapters as well as the trials themselves. Good reads. Keep them coming.

Absolutely loved this book! Surprise ending.

I just finished the Kindle version last night. Great twists and turns. 🤩 I love your writing style and the books keep getting better and better!!! I look forward to the next book 📕

Loved the book, your my favorite to listen to in the car, I hope they keep coming fast

Awesome book!! Love Nate Shepherd!

Fantastic story. I have listened to them all. Hoping another one is on the way??

Awesome Story. Makes me. Love these books. I gave it an awesome review on Audible.

Already listening!

Just got this morning. Just finishing up a book and will start shortly. Getting this is like Christmas in November.

Listening now!

Bought the audio this morning and is in the on deck circle. Finishing up The Alice Network which I highly recommend.

Listening to it now!

Listening now!

I bought it the minute I saw your post!! Can't wait!!

I'm an addict... Listened to the entire series on audible in the last eight weeks 😬. It would seem that Michael Stagg is a new author (in the last few years) as there are no other books to be found! This surprised me as the book was a suggestion after I finished listening to a Michael Connelly series and I was certain I'd find decades of prior novels. Hopefully there is another pen name? Otherwise I guess I have to wait for the next book with bated breath. If people know of another pen name please let me know. God bless!

Got it! Can’t wait to get started!!

Listening!

Thank you! Because of you, Cruel Sentence hit number 1 on all sorts of Amazon Best Seller lists, including Pulp Thrillers, Conspiracy Thrillers, and Legal Thrillers-New Release. It also charted on Amazon lists in Canada, the UK, and Australia. I really enjoyed writing this one and I just can't thank you enough for reading it!

For those waiting for the Cruel Sentence audiobook, we're only about a month out from the Nov. 12th release date! And if you're catching up on the audio, I just found out that Amazon is running a sale on the audiobook for Book 7, Swift Judgment, through Sunday, October 13th.

Again, thank you so much. I could not appreciate it, and you, more! ... See MoreSee Less

Patiently waiting on the Audible for this one ❤️

Waiting on the audio because that is how I roll, though I got the ebook for the last one because of the uncertainty about the audio release window.

Congratulations Mike!

Congratulations! We bought it right away. But saving it to read on vacation coming up!

Great job, Mike!!!!

Great book!!

Can't wait for the audio. LOVE your writing.

Congratulations

Still waiting for the Audio version available on Nov 12th.

Love the Nate Sheppard series!!!!!

This was the best yet. An amazing storyline, page turning dialogue, and a main character that you just can’t get enough of.

You deserve this! 🫶🏻

Well deserved!

Congratulations, Michael Stagg ... Love your books.

Absolutely love your writing. Your wry humor and reality in characters is so much fun to read. Looking forward to #9 😁

"Heading out on an 8-day river cruise next week, and I’d planned to save the last book in the Nate Shepherd series for the trip. But I couldn’t wait! I devoured it in one night, staying up till dawn, and I’d do it all over again. Now I’m seriously considering starting the series from the beginning as my travel companion. I’m so thrilled to have discovered your incredible talent and can’t wait to dive into your next series. Thank you for the unforgettable stories!"

Amazing!!!!

Hello Michael, Sorry for interrupting your privacy. My name is Oyedele Victor from Nigeria, I saw your profile, and I see you are a Self-publishing Author. Would you be interested if I shared some tips with you on how you can increase Book income towards December?

Patiently waiting for audio. Love George Newbern!

I absolutely love this Series and the narrator. Can’t wait for the Audible to be released in November. I just finished book 7!

YAY! Happy Audible release day Michael Stagg. I just downloaded Cruel Sentence on Audible and can’t wait to start listening this morning ❤️❤️

Hi y’all! I absolutely love this series. I love courtroom drama. So I ripped through all the books on audible very quickly. Can anyone recommend recommend to me other series with courtroom drama legal intrigue? I’ve listened to all the normal ones like like the Lincoln lawyer etc. I’m just wondering if there’s something out there if people may not know about. Looking forward to cruel sentence in November!

Another masterpiece Michael Stagg so love this series of Nate Shepherd. Looking forward to reading The Concrete Alibi in the new Mason Pierce Series. Hope to see the next Nate Shepherd book down the track. 🙏😊

Just finished listening to Cruel Sentence. Love the whole series and the way George Newbern reads the characters. I hope they are more Nate Shepherd books to come! Fantastic characters and storylines! Thanks for the very entertaining books.

George Newbern is the perfect narrator for your Nate Shepherd Series -

Sadly Audible books won't have available until the end of November.

Just ordered the paperback…. Can’t wait to start reading!!!!!

Looking forward to the audiobook!

Looking forward to Nov 12. And George.

HOORAY!

This made me laugh! My husband once sent me to the liquor store with a list of 4 wines that I could choose from for him. I'm not the wine person, he is... After 22 minutes of trying to find one of the options (even with the help of customer service) I zoned out and settled on a bottle of "fat bastard"... 😂 I hope you are going to revisit your secial drink very very soon!

YES!!!! Love this series!

GOOD NEWS! !

Awesome! Can’t wait to read it.

Wish you much success!

Cannot wait for Nate!

Please promise to keep writing more!

Yay! Can't wait!!

Congratulations!!

Just preordered my Audiobook 🤗

Smooth. :)

Yes!

Yayyyyy!!! 🎉🎉
