The Goddess Project paperback now available

[HareBrain]

After a delay that felt much longer to me than it actually was, the paperback of The Goddess Project, published by Snowbooks, is in the wild. Available at:

Amazon UK (including some third-party sellers at less than RRP; also note delivery should be quicker than they're currently claiming)

Amazon US (third-party sellers only, but not far off UK RRP even with $3.99 postage)

Snowbooks website

Also available to order from bookshops (ISBN 9781911390220), and on the shelf at some branches of Waterstones, including I believe their Piccadilly store, handy for you Londoners. Might also be at Forbidden Planet, and possibly others.

(Of course, Kindle version also available at Amazon UK and Amazon US, and some other countries.)

I'm a fan of physical books myself, and personally, I really like this paperback. It's a nice size, flops open well, and the layout and typefaces are bang on. As for the story itself, there are "Look Inside" previews on the Amazon links above, and here's the first blog review, hot off the press:

Peat Long's Blog: The Goddess Project by Bryan Wigmore

Any other reviews would of course be wonderful. If anyone reading this has a blog and wants an ebook to review (or maybe a paperback if you'd prefer and I can swing it) PM me.

Finally, for anyone who missed it last time, here's the full cover, including blurb.

Yes! I'm all over this.

Fist pump.

Silly question -- is it better for you for a copy to be picked off the shelf at a Waterstones which stocks it (I'm assuming Chichester is one -- I'm there on Saturday) or for it to be ordered at a non-stockist branch, so your name gets around a bit more?

Doing any signings locally? Any launch parties I can crash?!

Not a silly question. I'll ask my contact how Waterstones restocking operates. Going to ask them about signings etc too.

 

[Teresa Edgerton]

Oh, this looks lovely!

 

[Dan Jones]

Don't forget to ask your local library to get a copy in. You still get royalties for library loans (though I think you have to register with something to qualify - the SOA will know), and they might give pride of place to a local rabbit like yourself.

Just for info HB - got an update on the order I put in yesterday on Amazon. Will now be delivered some time Jan 28-30 (was originally 8-18 of Feb).

Yay!

I got my statement today and will be two quid richer come Feb! Who hoo.

You need to register with PLR and then it all gets done for you.

Go, everyone! Order Chronners' books!

Ordering from a new store is better - it shows wider demand. They restock based on sales figures and only hold a couple of copies of most books in stock.

PLR, that's the one. Well done, Jo. Two quid, eh? Scratchcards tonight?

That's what I wondered. (I still might go and have a dekko at Chichester though and take a photo!)

Photos in the Wild are cool!

There's a stack! On a table!

 

[Boneman]

Fantastic HB, must feel great. I'm off to my local waterstones, to see if they have a stack. If not, I shall complain, and threaten to take my business elsewhere.

 

[The Judge]

There's a stack! On a table!

And the evidence...

I didn't unearth them all for the pic, but there was indeed a stack, nestled between Fiest and GRRM -- not bad company!!

In the Wild! No better feeling @HareBrain

 

[HareBrain]

No better feeling @HareBrain

I dunno -- finding they've all been sold might be nice!

 

[Teresa Edgerton]

That was always the problem for me. If the books were there I'd think, "Did anyone buy the book? Were there more copies that are gone now?" If there were no books, I would think, "Did they sell them all? Or did they not order and stock any copies in the first place?"

 

[TheDustyZebra]

Squeeee! Look at the lovely company it's in! Or, I should say, look at the lovely company that King and Martin are in!

The book looks just as attractive resting on my coffee table too. That cover is really striking. I was a beta reader some time ago and loved the story then. I am really looking forward to reading it in its final form.
