I’ve released an Auckland Allies complete boxed set on both Amazon and Draft2Digital (which distributes to everyone who isn’t Amazon, including libraries). I decided to take all the Auckland Allies books out of KDP Select, Amazon’s exclusive subscription-based distribution, because you only really get borrows there if you play Amazon’s silly game and pay them for placement in search results, and I refuse to do that. This means that I can now put it “wide” across all of the distributors.

I’ve also entered it into the Indie Author Project‘s annual contest, which also includes distribution to libraries (probably many of the same libraries as Draft2Digital, but quite possibly some different ones as well). Given the number of entries they get, I don’t have high expectations of a win, but you never know; I think it’s a good piece of work, and maybe they will too. I’ve also entered The Rediscovery of Hardlac, my latest Gryphon Clerks novel, because why not?

My plan is to apply for a BookBub promotion for the boxed set, which will involve discounting it, but the price I have it at is already less than the cost of the individual books added together. So if you haven’t read Auckland Allies, or have only read one or two of the books, and you’d like to get the whole set at once, this is your opportunity. It’s a fun, adventurous urban fantasy series with my trademark ensemble cast, set in my hometown, and I’m very fond of it. I hope you’ll like it too.
