Burning Up: Where is the ebook?
I’ve received a couple of inquiries this morning about Burning Up, because it’s apparently not available on Kindle, at Borders, or All Romance Ebooks.
It is available at BN.com, the Sony ebook store, Diesel, Books on Board, and iBooks.
I’m not sure why it’s not showing up in the other catalogs, but I imagine it’s an issue that will be resolved soon. If I hear otherwise, I’ll update you here.
UPDATE: It was a problem with the files, and they are being resent to bookstores. BURNING UP should be available soon at your favorite ebook retailer.
It is available on iBooks as I downloaded it this morning.
@Teri: Oh, thank you! I tried to look for it, but I couldn’t connect to the store for some reason (despite a wireless connection, sigh.) I’ll add that to my list.
I turned on my kindle this morning to buy it and almost cried. And, too impatient, I ran out and bought it hardcopy during lunch. That is NOT a short story by the way… more like a small novel! Wonderful!
And I will have to buy it a second time for my kindle when they finally figure it out, but it was worth it.
Due to it’s wonderful massivness I was not able to finish during lunch and it is killing me! Can’t wait until the kids go to sleep tonight and I can devour the rest!
As a note: sometimes the kindle version is released a few days after the hardcopy. I always assumed it was to drive sales of the hardcopy (thus my shame at giving in). Usually these days it tells you when the release date is (probably the 10th) but that is a fairly new development.
@Vorpaks: Ha, yes — I have a tendency to write long
I’m so glad you are enjoying it!
I’m hoping the Kindle/other stores’ delay will be just one or two days, at most. I know that there is sometimes a delay with other publishers (or when there is a hardback coming out), but Berkley is usually good about having a same-day ebook/mass-market release (which is why it’s at the other stores.)
I can only imagine that it’s a cataloging issue, this time (my release last month didn’t have any issues, so I don’t think it’s about publisher/retailer negotiations). I hope so, because then it will be an easy fix.
I downloaded mine from Booksonboard and went straight to your story. I’ve finished it at one sitting this morning.
You’re an amazing storyteller and wonderful writer. I feel like I’m still in that world you have created for us readers. Thank you!
I can’t wait until October for the “Iron Duke” book.
@amy: Thank you, so much! I hope you love The Iron Duke, too — it’s the same world from a different angle, but I hope is just as fun.
