Aethon Partners with TurtleMe for New TBATE Editions!

August 25, 2025 by Aethon Editor Leave a Comment

After many years of success, and even an anime adaptation on Crunchyroll, the bestselling THE BEGINNING AFTER THE END Series, by TurtleMe, has officially concluded as a weekly webnovel.

And so, we are thrilled to announce our partnership with Turtle to revamp the eBook and publish them exclusively to Kindle & Kindle Unlimited for the first time. The books will be getting another round of professional edits along with incredible new covers!

TBATE is a staple amongst progression fantasy readers and will fit perfectly in our catalog while also providing existing fans with a “definitive” version worth revisiting.

The relaunch happens in March 2026 so mark your calendars!

ABOUT THE SERIES:

King Grey once benefited from unrivaled strength, wealth, and prestige in a world governed by martial ability, but now finds himself reborn in a society dominated by magic. Given a second chance at life, the once-king strives to understand his role in this new world and the purpose of his reincarnation while correcting the mistakes of his past.


ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Tae Ha Lee, writing under the pen name TurtleMe, is a fantasy novelist and webcomic author. His internationally acclaimed series, The Beginning After the End, has been translated into over ten languages and has captivated readers worldwide. Blending elements of western and eastern literature, TurtleMe creates a unique and compelling reading experience that resonates with global audiences. Tae Ha, a proud UC Berkeley graduate, currently resides in Seattle with his beloved wife and dog. To find out more, follow @turtleme93 on Instagram.

What This Means For Existing Readers:

  • No loss of your current editions: If you already purchased any TBATE eBooks or plan to purchase now until the relaunch, you will not lose access to those copies. You’ll keep your purchased editions in your library.
  • Volume 12 timeline: We’re targeting May 2026 for the eBook version to cap off the relaunch.
