Book 4 Launch Event: Record of the Paladins: Book of Turpin
On April 24, 2026, Record of the Paladins came into the real world with a launch event for Book 4: Turpin.
Event details
Location: Jallo Wine & Spirits / Cigar Lounge
Time: 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM
Come meet author B.P. McCoppin, get your book signed, and explore the world of Record of the Paladins in person. We’ll be talking about the journey behind the series, the heart of Book 4, and what’s coming next for the Paladins.
Why Turpin matters
Book of Turpin follows a man gifted with the voice of God, standing against false shepherds, demonic deception, and a comfortable gospel that has forgotten the cross. It’s a story about what happens when someone refuses to look away from spiritual warfare, even when it costs them everything.
What to expect at the event
- Signed copies of Book of Turpin (and earlier books while supplies last)
- A short talk about the series and the world behind it
- Time for Q&A about the characters, themes, and spiritual warfare in the books
- A chance to connect with other readers who love epic, dark, spiritual storytelling
Can’t make it?
If you missed the April 24, 2026 event, you can still grab a copy of Book of Turpin from your favorite retailer and join the reader list for future events, new releases, and behind‑the‑scenes lore from the world of the Paladins.
Thank you for being part of this journey. I’m excited to share this next chapter with you.
