The Kindle version of MageSign is still waiting for all its details to be updated by Amazon, so bookmark the page of you’d like that edition. The Smashwords versions of both books, in a further Read An E-Book Week promotion, are available half price for this week only. So that’s both novels for the price of one – both are usually US$3.50 each at Smashwords; now you can get them at US$1.75 each until the end of the week.

The Kindle editions are priced at US$3.99, but Amazon usually do an automatic discount on RRP. (RealmShift is available on Kindle for US$3.19, for example, even though its RRP is US$3.99).

Also, don’t forget that both books are available in print from your local Amazon, B&N online, Booktopia and so on, as well as direct from us here at Blade Red Press.

Two great books, so many purchase options. How can you go wrong?

Still getting organised

December 13, 2008 4:00 pm

Blade Red Press is still getting itself organised, so apologies if parts of the website are unclear or inoperative. We’re working on getting an e-store set up here but that’s not yet complete.

Once we have everything in order we’ll be opening for submissions for short stories and novels, hopefully in the first half of next year, so watch this space. We’re doing it all slowly in order to get it right. Any feedback gratefully received.
