A weekly post where I can brag about my new books? Yes please. Granted I definitely won’t have something to post every week, I’ll just do it as required. I will be including everything from my purchases, to NetGalley, gifts and books from authors.
For more information head over to Tynga’s Reviews.
Every year a heap of the authors participating in the Self-Published Fantasy Blog Off get together and have a massive sale. Which means some of their books are as cheap as 99c. Unfortunately for me, Australia didn’t seem to be included which sucked. I bought enough, but I probably would have picked up more if they were on sale here as well.
So what did I find?
Visions of Zarua by Suzanne Rogerson – Two wizards, 350 years apart. Can they save the realm of Paltria from Zarua’s dark past?
Heaven’s Key by Electa Graham – Jael swears like a sailor, drinks like a fish and gambles like a card shark, but the thing she does best is kill demons. Her goal in life is to remove every last abomination from the face of the Earth.
A Wizard’s Forge by A.M. Justice – A blade sharp enough for vengeance requires a wizard’s forge.
Immortal’s Requiem by Vincent Bobbe – There are beings that live a shadow’s breadth from our reality. They are the dreams and nightmares of humanity, the ancient seeds of fairy-tale and superstition.
City Of Masks by Ashley Capes – When a royal conspiracy topples the noble House Falco, Sofia must take up the burden of her father’s mantle and assume guardianship of his Greatmask.
Realm Of Beasts by Angela J. Ford – An enchantress and a wizard get tangled in the grisly plans of an undead creature.
The Lore Of Prometheus by Graham Austin-King – John Carver has three rules: Don’t drink in the daytime, don’t gamble when the luck has gone, and don’t talk to the dead people who come to visit
Looking over the collection I acquired it’s safe to say I’m an absolute cover whore. A good looking cover will suck me right in. I have been wanting The Lore of Prometheus since it was first released, so I’m very excited to finally have it.
Did anyone else pick up some new books during the sale? Have you read any of the ones I grabbed?
Make sure you head over to see what Jason from Off The TBR, the creator of Self-Published Fantasy Month, picked up.
Finally, it’s been a while since I’ve done one of these posts. I have a few others I have acquired over the last six weeks.
No one should be surprised that majority of these were self-published as well. This year my number of self-publish purchases is definitely higher than traditional.
I did the same when the sale was on! I read Lord of Prometheus a little while ago and really liked it. Happy Reading!

Sales are so great. It’s the best way to try new authors. Ooh I just started Lore of Prometheus last night and it’s pretty good so far. I have to stop stating books at 11pm though.

I agree the covers of the books you’ve chosen look great. I picked up a couple of books in the sale, including one on your recommendation! I haven’t read the books I picked up last year in the sale including A Wizard’s Forge which I’m really looking forward to.
I wish there were more hours in the day to read everything I want to.

Ooh I can’t wait to see what you think of them. Haha I’m totally with you, I still have 5-6 from last years sale that I still haven’t read. My kindle is finally getting some use, I ignored it for a long time.
