Thanks, folks, for -- as always -- your invaluable input. We've studied it carefully and hope to please everyone.
We will start bundling this month. Just to put folks minds at rest when they feel they must sample an entire book before going for a bundle, all titles will remain available individually and book descriptions and first chapters are freely available on all titles.
We've decided on single-download omnibus editions for the simple reason that we can produce manageable files by cutting superfluous material (like opening pages on sequels to describe back story of earlier books in the actual collection and our policy with individual titles of series books of carrying the first chapter of the next title in line as a free taster.
Because these ebook collections of individual titles are meant to be read in order, this material is unnecessary for continuity. Although page-count isn't a costing consideration in ebooks, as it is in print, this removal of superfluous material is intended entirely to keep the files relatively small for the convenience of the reader and for a more fluid reading flow. Extra editorial and technical work this end, but that's what we're here for.
Thanks again, People. Once again, you've pointed the way. Now let's take the plunge and see how she blows.
Very best wishes. Neil
