The Voyage of the Minotaur is now $1.99

I am dropping the price of Senta and the Steel Dragon Book 1: The Voyage of the Minotaur to $1.99.  I have been struggling to decide a price point on this book and this series.  I want people to read it and I hope this will make it more attractive.

The book has been out almost exactly two years now, and as I write this, it has sold 259 copies.  I think that definitely warrents a price reduction.  By going below 2.99 at Amazon, I drop from a 70% royalty rate to a 30% royalty rate, and I don’t really expect the additional sales to make up for it.  But hopefully there will be an increase in the sales of the sequels, and that will make up the difference.

If you have read my other books, but haven’t yet gotten to Senta and the Steel Dragon, give them a try.  They are my favorite books of all those that I’ve written.

Moon Called (Mercy Thompson)
Mercy Thompson’s life is not exactly normal. Her next-door neighbor is a werewolf. Her former boss is a gremlin. And she’s fixing a VW bus for a vampire. But then, Mercy isn’t exactly normal herself.
This is my first book by Patricia Briggs and consequently my read at this series, but it looks very interesting.  I’ve never been that big into vampires and werewolves, though now that I’m writing a book myself with them in it, they are starting to seem more interesting. 
I am of course reading this on my new Nook.  It was $7.99, and is the same price on the Kindle and Kobo.  Any book that I might like that is more than 9.99, I just put in my wishlist until the price drops.  I think $9.99 is a fair price for a newly published ebook, but no more than that.
