Holiday Wishes & A Holiday Sale

Holiday Wishes & A Holiday Sale

I hope everyone is having a wonderful holidays! I won't take much of your time, so you can get back to the eggnog and leftover cookies:

  • The response to RELATIVITY has been absolutely tremendous. I love that you love Eren, Felzeor, and the wondrous and dangerous universe of Amaranthe as much as I do. If you've had the chance to finish reading Relativity, consider posting a quick review on Amazon or sharing the book on social media - you have my thanks!
  • In an overabundance of holiday spirit, I've put both Aurora Rising and Aurora Renegades: The Complete Collections on sale for $0.99 (or currency equivalent) on Amazon WORLDWIDE. The sale runs until the calendar flips to the new year, so tell your friends they have something to spend a tiny fraction of their Christmas gift cards on :).

Thank you all for an amazing year, and I look forward to sharing more of Alex and Caleb's incredible story with you all in the next one.

Aurora Renegades Collection Now Available, & A Relativity Update

Aurora Renegades Collection Now Available, & A Relativity Update

AURORA RENEGADES: THE COMPLETE COLLECTION is now available on Amazon worldwide at a special release price $0.99 for one week only. AURORA RENEGADES bundles together the three novels in the Aurora Renegades trilogy (Sidespace, Dissonance, Abysm) as well as the Apogee short story in one ebook with a stunning new cover. Get it today.

  • To celebrate the release, AURORA RISING: THE COMPLETE COLLECTION is on sale for $0.99 this week as well (US and UK only). If you know anyone who might be interested in reading this series, there has truly never been a better time for them to dive in - all 6 novels + 3 short stories for $1.98. If you want to help spread the word about Aurora Rhapsody (which would make me happy), tell people about this sale!
  • Also, if you've posted reviews for any of Sidespace, Dissonance or Abysm, please consider copying them over to Aurora Renegades. If you haven't gotten around to posting a review, well, now's an excellent time to share all your thoughts on the trilogy in one place ;). It's going to take a while for new readers to get through the whole trilogy, so a couple of early reviews will help a great deal in increasing visibility for the Collection. You have my thanks.
  • It's been three months since Abysm came out, and RELATIVITY already exists in a big way. The story has crested 110K words and I'm well into the editing process. Eagle-eyed visitors to the website or my social media pages will notice I've updated the date banners on the Aurora Resonant covers - in particular, the Relativity date has been moved up from early 2017 to Winter 2016 :). Look for more news on the Relativity release soon!

ABYSM Release Date, Blurb & More

ABYSM (Aurora Renegades Book Three) will released on JUNE 28, 2016. For my American readers, that means plenty of time to grab it before your July 4th vacation.

  • Is it being released a little earlier than any of us expected? Yes, it is. More on that in a blog post next week :). But I love that it is, and I hope you do, too. Without further ado, I give you the final cover and blurb:

I was honored to be interviewed by Pavarti K. Tyler as part of her "Women of Science Fiction" series. I talk about being an indie author, writing science fiction and the joy of doing it full time, and, yes, being a woman writing it. Leave a comment on the interview (not here) for a chance to win your choice of a signed paperback of Starshine or an ebook of Aurora Rising: The Complete Collection: #WomenofSciFi – Interview with GS Jennsen.
