Orion Published - Available Tomorrow

That's not what we mean :/

Then what did you mean? Because it's not exactly clear.

That's the price I set, £6.99, $6.99, E6.99. Amazon upped that to: £7.20 and $11.34 because of stupid taxes. Didn't really want it to be that high.

No man, I mean you put all the same number for the price yet in different currency. You see, currency changes in value across the lands of the world. you can put $6.99 and £6.99 but if you put these in the same currency format, 6.99 pounds are $10.93 and 6.99 dollars is £4.47. Basically you are charging less for people with different currency, or in other words some people have to pay more for the same thing.

And a screenshot:

Right, I'll change the pricing on the website.

@Oxol, I think there's a link on the page I gave you to translate the file into another format. You can also read it on your PC.

I can't even buy it...

I can't even buy it...

You can here: http://www.amazon.com/Orion-Sword-Li...Sword+of+Light

You have to buy it from .com rather than .co.uk.

Changed the pricing:
$7.99
£5.11
E6.45

That should work out.

Really?
Kindle simply isn't available everywhere.

I'm not going to buy it anyway, I just want you to be aware of this.

Why not? I thought you were looking forward to it?

I think it's great you're getting it published, and it sounds nice enought, but I read very little nowadays, and I've got about 50 books I purchased for about £.5 that I've planned to read. Too many books and too little time already.

Fair enough, you can always sample the book for free by clicking on the "look inside" thing. You may enjoy it.

Drakxxx is finishing up the cover now, should be available on Amazon within the next few days as a physical copy. I will be taking down the Kindle version, as KDP screwed up the formatting and it looks like crap. I'll take it down, once I put the new one up.

Also, I just started on the sequel "Amulet of Tereis" and it involves ZOMBIES! Btw, this is not a children's book series as it has horror and some fantasy violence, like Harry Potter only more... Skyrim-ish. There is also the use of some PG-13 swearing, such as Bloody Heck (couldn't use "hell" because "hell" doesn't exist in Orion, in Orion it's the "Underworld").

An important (to note) piece of information:

Orion will be a saga of books. Shorter than Harry Potter, more than Twilight. I won't say the number of books, as I am still working on story-arcs, character deaths, twists and going deep into the lore of the Orionverse over the course of the series. I am sure, if you enjoy fantasy, you will greatly enjoy the lore of Orion. Rich history, fantastic stories, enjoyable characters and hilarious results are sure to have you fixated upon the next iteration of the series.

How have the sales been?

How have the sales been?

No one really knows about it yet. Haven't promoted it at all, but createspace promotes it for free. I can't really blame anyone for not buying it just yet, as KDP f'd up the formatting severely. Click the "more inside" thing on Orion and then check out another novel, you'll see what I mean.

How will anyone ever know about it?

How will anyone ever know about it?

The same way people discovered Harry Potter. One person reads it, then tells the world about it.

I received a small sample of the cover from Joel last night and I have to admit, I am really impressed. He captured the visual style of Orion with next-to-no detail from me and has excellently drawn the character models. It looks amazing right now, and I cannot wait to show everyone the vision Joel had when he designed this cover for me.

If the book takes off, I will see if I can contract him for the series.
