Mostly, my books and the process of getting them on the shelves.
And if it hasn’t already, the ebook price should drop to match it. Whee! Goodbye, $12.99! No one will miss you. Now, for the rough part: The print version of the mass-market release contains an epilogue novella to The Iron Duke called “Mina Wentworth and the Invisible City.” This novella is not included in the […]
These have popped up on the publishers’ Facebook pages in the past couple of days. Clicking on them will take you to the publisher’s site, and you can view all of the available foreign editions on the International page (except for Italy’s, because I haven’t added that yet). There are no words for how much […]
November 4th marks the release day for the German translation of The Iron Duke – Die Eiserne See: Wilde Sehnsucht (Translated by Beate Bauer) from EGMONT LYX. I also just spotted this calendar/wallpaper for November on EGMONT LYX’s Facebook page. For my German readers — it hasn’t been translated, but I have a rudimentary guide […]
The second book in the Iron Seas series is a bit different than the first — a little faster-paced and less angsty because Yasmeen and Archimedes simply weren’t those types of characters — but I hope just as fun for everyone! As per usual, I’m going into hiding online so that I don’t obsess over […]
For those of you who aren’t reading through my book-length Q&A posts and who might have missed this link in the middle of it or my tweet on Twitter, I’ve set up a basic guide to the Iron Seas, with a map at the bottom. It’s ugly. It’s rough. It’s very basic. But I hope […]
Here are more of Maili’s questions – and my (sometimes overlong) answers. d) What’s the difference between a Steampunk novel and a Gaslight fantasy novel? What about alternative historical novels like Kim Newman’s Anno Dracula? Agh. I always feel a little weird when I get into this, because although I’m happy to talk my mouth […]
I’ve seen a couple of mentions that these are in reviewers’ hands, so they should be coming soon! I believe they will all be released on the same day as the print/ebook Heart of Steel (November 1st). I don’t have a link yet for purchasing, but as soon as I have one, I’ll add it […]
I have a UK reader who is wondering about e-book availability for the Guardian series (obviously not Demon Angel, but that’s coming!) I’m trying to help her out, but I’m never certain when I’m looking at bookstores whether the ebook is unavailable, full stop, or whether it just appears unavailable to me because of my […]
You might have noticed the audio version of Angels of Darkness is up at Audible.com, and it’s missing a name on the cover — mine! This is a heads-up for that audiobook: “Ascension” is not included in this audiobook. Penguin Audio has the rights to the novella and will be releasing it later. I don’t […]
In the haiku thread that led to my new Bad Limerick Saturdays, there was a quick discussion of whether or not authors should respond to review. In general, my answer is “No” — unless there is an egregious error that needs to be pointed out, or one that leads to false expectations that would seriously […]
Look for the giveaway beginning on Monday — and combined with the Goodreads chat giveaway, will be a total of eleven Heart of Steel ARCs that we’ll be giving away next week. The picture also includes cover flats for the mass market edition of The Iron Duke; I’ll be giving those away on Monday, too. […]
Just a reminder that my chat with Executive Editor at Berkley Publishing, Cindy Hwang, will begin on Monday, September 19 and continue through Wednesday, September 21. We will also be giving away five HEART OF STEEL advance copies, two copies of ANGELS OF DARKNESS, and five sets of my Guardian backlist: DEMON ANGEL, DEMON MOON, […]
My newsletter went out today. Mostly, it just said — DEMON MARKED IS OUT! — but there was also an update regarding a few Iron Seas novellas coming next year (one with Mina and Rhys, the other featuring Scarsdale) and a link to a Goodreads group where, on September 19-21, my editor Cindy Hwang and […]
I’ve had a couple of readers mention that they’ve had a hard time finding new, readily available print copies of Demon Moon from online stores — it’s unavailable at Barnes & Noble, has a ship date of 6-9 days at Amazon, is unavailable at The Book Depository, and out of stock at my publisher’s site. […]
I’m always forget to share these, but I’ll try to do better — they are so fun! Anastasia Tychkova posted this on my Facebook page, and gave permission to share it. I love it!
