The Archive Is Open: Chronicles of the Hollow Circuit Has Its Own Site
Later this year, Chronicles will be available as full audiobooks through the Art of FACELESS shop. Subscribers get both formats: the ePUB edition, illustrated by Awen, and the audiobook .mp3 — no DRM, no lock-in, yours to keep either way.
A new home for the stories that live outside the novels — and the first three episodes are free to read right now.
Chronicles of the Hollow Circuit has a site of its own now: chroniclesofthehollowcircuit.com.
What Chronicles actually is
The Hollow Circuit is a three-book novel series — Book One is already out — but that's not the whole universe. Chronicles is everything that happens around those books: the sprayed signals, the pasted warnings, the sightings that don't make it into the main continuity but are canon all the same. If the novels are the record, Chronicles is what's scrawled in the margins.
Rwth and Rhiannon come off Tumblr for good
Chronicles is now the permanent collection of the altcardiff2026 stories — Rwth and Rhiannon's run through alt. Cardiff, Wales and alt. Athens, Greece. These started life on Tumblr. They don't live there anymore.
That was always going to be temporary. A rented shelf on someone else's platform was never the plan for a story about a city that erases its own evidence. It has one now: a sovereign site, built to stay up as long as the circuit does.
Read the first three episodes free
You don't need an account or a subscription to start. The first three episodes are live now in a page-flip edition — read them straight in the browser at chroniclesofthehollowcircuit.com/book, no sign-up required. The introduction is read by the author, Awen Null, himself — listen to the audio signal here.
Audiobooks are coming, DRM-free
Later this year, Chronicles will be available as full audiobooks through the Art of FACELESS shop. Subscribers get both formats: the ePUB edition, illustrated by Awen, and the audiobook .mp3 — no DRM, no lock-in, yours to keep either way.
What's coming this autumn
Episodes beyond the first three will roll out as part of a subscription spanning multiple Art of FACELESS sites, launching later this autumn. More on tiers and timing soon — for now, the archive is open, and the first three episodes are yours.
