The Frank Harold Letter
A monthly note on what we're publishing, what's coming next, and what we'd put in your hands this month.
Dear reader,
Welcome to the July 2026 edition of the Frank Harold Letter. Frank Harold Publishing is a small literary house that publishes long-form alt-historical, historical, and first-contact science fiction — patient prose, books that earn their length, and a release pace that prefers staying out of your way to crowding your shelf.
This month I want to thank you for being here. The imprint has come a long way in a short time — three series, two authors in print, two more on the way — and every reader who follows along helps a small press stay independent. The next book to ship is The Reckoning by Frank Harold, which lands on July 4. Below: a closer look at this month's featured book, everything currently in print, the full preorder calendar, and a spotlight on the series we're putting forward in July.
As ever,
The Editors

9 books releasing through autumn 2026.
Each month we put one series forward — the one we'd most recommend if you were choosing where to start. This month:
The Rapallo Line
An eight-book alternate-history sequence of the Second World War.
An eight-book treaty-world sequence in which the Nazi-Soviet understanding was never breached, and the war that ensued was quieter, longer, and more terrible than the one we remember. Five main-sequence volumes set in Europe, plus a three-book Pacific Trilogy companion tracing the parallel American war and its uneasy peace. All eight books are complete and being released on Amazon over the coming months.
Reading any of these? Tell us.
The imprint is small enough that every reader matters. If you've read one of our books, are working your way through a series, or just want to say hello — write to [email protected]. We read everything.
Until next month —
