Polyagony trilogy by Candace Klein

Pre-order the Polyagony series today and you’ll receive each of the three books as Candace releases them over the next year and your name in each book as a VATRON/supporter:

Polyagony: The Foundation is about preparing without destroying your existing relationship — knowing yourself, building agreements with your partner, and deciding how you’ll exist in the world. This is where everyone begins. (available Spring 2026)

In Polyagony: The Expansion, we’ll explore what happens when others enter — the joys and challenges of being a hinge, navigating metamour relationships, group dynamics, and play parties. That book is for when you’re ready to add complexity.

In Polyagony: The Reckoning, we’ll face the hardest parts — when things erode, when agreements break, when relationships need to end or evolve. That book is there when you need it.
