Urban Fantasy - Under Witch Moon

BearMountainBooks · 10-02-2010, 12:32 PM

Good Morning everyone!!!

Update:

Under Witch Moon is now live at both Smashwords and Amazon. (Other vendors will follow bit by bit!)

Here's the Amazon Link:

Old News..--but first it needs a cover! I'm running a poll of two fabulous covers done by Deb Wentz over at my blog: BearMountainBooks

(No purchase necessary to join in the fun.)

Here's the book blurb:

Quote:

Adriel should have known that with a werewolf, it never stopped with just one body. She would have gone to the police after witnessing Dolores’ death, but she wasn’t certain the killer she saw was responsible for the other murders. Besides, the police didn’t believe in werewolves, and they weren’t going to believe she was a witch either so what could she tell them?

She kept her eyes and ears open while she tried to help her latest client escape the clutches of a voodoo witch, but things went from bad to worse when more bodies turned up. She was greatly relieved when she met White Feather, an undercover cop. Unfortunately, he wasn’t convinced she was innocent of all wrong-doing.

It was going to take every spell she knew and a few she hadn’t tried to solve the murders and stay alive.

Come on over and join the fun! Comments and feedback welcome!

Looks like we have a clear winner...I will be posting it soon!

BearMountainBooks · 10-11-2010, 12:33 PM

The final artwork is in!!! Deb did some great final touch-ups.

I know a number of you stopped by to vote--thank you! It really helps to have opinions and suggestions for covers.

It is live on Kindle. I've set the price to $3.99 for two weeks--then it will go to $4.99 after that! The smashwords coupon (VV86V is for a dollar off the $4.99 price on smashwords) will also be good for another two weeks.

P.S. If you already downloaded a copy from Smashwords, you will have access to the new cover by just downloading the latest version.

I love the cover, Maria.

I put your book in my cart at smashwords and look forward to reading it.

Hi Dreams--Thanks! I hope you love it.

I was pretty happy with the final cover too. It was really nice to have an artist help with this one. Of course I'm already thinking about the next one...

for popping by!

Amazon has marked down Under Witch Moon from $4.99 to $3.99 -- I don't control this sale so I do not know how long it will last. B&N also has it on sale, but they don't appear to have completely uploaded the book (no cover).

To allow those of you with Sony or other devices to take advantage of the sale, I'm providing a Smashwords coupon for a dollar off (It expires Nov 15):

Thank you! I'm always pretty nervous for the first...oh year or two.

Thankfully, the reviews have been kind and the fans generous. I'm glad to see the book popping up on the various ebook sites so that things can roll along.

Thanks for stopping by to say hello!

Just picked it up at Smashwords, along with a couple of your others. They look like they will be fun reads.

Well, both Amazon and B&N still have Under Witch Moon on sale for $3.99. Kobobooks should have the book soon (it shipped there last week.) Sony has the book and e diesel has had it shipped to them.

Meanwhile, as promised, if you use Smashwords, here is a coupon for a dollar off to match the discounts at B&N and Amazon:

Enjoy!

Hi, Maria.

I just have to let you know that I have reread (third time) Under Witch Moon and loved it just as much as the first time I read it. I have a fairly free weekend, the weather is slightly cooler, and I can enjoy being on the patio and starting the second book, Under Witch Aura. Life is good.
