Fire-heart After a rather exhaustive wrangling with format, the second book in the 'Tales of Alterra, the World that Is,' is now available for the Kindle. It follows the first book, Elfhunter. It is priced at 0.99 until midnight Monday! After that, it will increase to 2.99. Readers should first purchase 'Elfhunter' to get the most from 'Fire-heart.' It is available for 0.99. The series was voted 'Best Series' in 2009, with Elfhunter taking 'Best Fantasy' in 2008. ReaderViews Reviewer's Choice Awards ENJOY!  (I'll post a link as soon as I figure out how to do it!) |

Archer, You can find the Link-Maker all the way at the top of your screen just under the Kindle Boards logo. Just enter your book title there and it will give you the link.  |

I tried to make Fire-heart into a link, but it doesn't seem to be working right now. I don't know if it is the ASIN # that is the issue, or if the link maker isn't working. I tried to make a link to a different book yesterday, and it didn't work for me then, either.
Your book looks good, however. Let us know when it is available for kindle!

Sorry, Susie. Try in a hour. It's just taking a little while to go live.
(Man...you guys are QUICK!) I wanted to post this thread before I had to go out for the rest of the day, and I expect the book to be live any minute now. Sorry for jumping the gun a little.

Hmmph! Well, it's still being published, according to DTP (Digital Text Platform). Don't worry...I'll extend the sale price an extra 24 hours to make up for it, ok?  |

Geoff: I sure hope you like it. It's a long one, I know, but I really enjoyed writing it. Lots of character exposition, many new characters, a thousand-mile journey, cool horses... ...let me know, will you? Ravenshade is in the works now. Don't want to keep the readers waiting! Sorry for the delay on Fire-heart. Anne: I am honored, madam. May my work prove worthy. 'Archer' |

Well, Anne, if long books you like, long books you shall have!
(I like them, too. If I have befriended the characters and immersed myself in the world, I don't want the story to end too soon. I also enjoy well-written short stories and shorter novels, but when it comes to fantasy, I prefer to linger awhile!)
So far, you've gotten over 500,000 words for your $1.98 investment! Not bad, eh?
(You've got to love Kindles.) Add Ravenshade and you'll have over 750,000 words for less than $3! (Before anyone flames me, I should mention that I know full well that word count does not equate with quality.)
Such a deal! The sale price of Fire-heart will now extend to midnight Tuesday due to the delay in activation. When Ravenshade comes along (any day now) it will also be discounted for a day or two.
Enjoy the journey! Taking you with me is why I write.

Archer: Thank you for the great deals on your books. I cannot wait for Ravenshade to be available. I will keep watching to make sure I do not miss such a great deal. My journey is just begining I am glad it will be a long and wonderful journey. |

Great deal indeed, Archer! Yay for Kindle and KindleBoards! After reading this and the Elfhunter threads and the Amazon reviews, I had to one-click on both. I don't read a lot of fantasy, but I do love long volumes of great world-building that I can really dive into for awhile. Thanks for the sale, Archer, and I'm looking forward to having some time to really start reading! N |
