About SJVP
As you can see, Creepy Doll in Detroit is now availble at a discount, 15% off through the holiday season. This discount will apply to all the books on the website. That means all the Paranormal Investigator books (not just Creepy Doll), as well as the Daphne books, the books by Jack Lawson (including Star Trek Genesis), and even the books we don't publish (by Graciela Hutchins and Gabriela Lawson). Unfortunately, we can't offer the discount to Eleazar's game. The profit margin is already too tight on the game, especially with free shipping. Free shipping continues to apply, even to the discounted books. And all books ordered through the website will still be signed by the author, even with the discount.
Eleazar fans: Eleazar has listened to the demand for a new game. Unfortunately, he has decided that a new historical topic will require too much research for a man with a fulltime job, a wife with a fulltime job, and two teenagers. So he's designing a science-fiction game, largely role-playing, called Void Demon about a spaceship invaded by very bad creatures from another dimension called the Void. We'll have more information once it's out of playtesting and is closer to release.
Jack Lawson's new science fiction novel The Nehring Project is here and available for immediate shipping. Because of its size (it's twice as long as the longest book in the "Worlds of Jack Lawson" series), it isn't part of the Worlds series and sells for $14.44 (while on discount--it's $16.99 regularly). It's about time travel and relationships across the centuries. You don't want to miss this one. Check it out on the Science Fiction and Fantasy page. Its length makes it ideal for long winter nights when you have lots of time and nothing to read.
All of the books we publish are available as e-books on Kindle, and a lot of you have discovered that and are taking advantage of it. Thank you. (Unfortunately, the discount does not apply to Kindle books. Sorry.) Me, I prefer good old paper books. Nothing in the electronic world can compare with the tactile pleasure of holding a book, flipping its pages, savoring the fresh paper and ink smell. Here on the website you will find your best source of ink and paper books. Also for collectors, all the books we sell on the website (including those we didn't publish, i.e. Gabriela's romance novels and Gracie's poetry) come to you signed by the author. And for buyers in the United States, our merchandise comes to you postage free. (For foreign buyers, we can't offer free shipping, but we will give the most generous terms we can. E-mail us at info@sanjoaquinvalleypress.com to find out what shipping costs will be to you.)
Our authors are Deirdre Hutchins and Jack Lawson.
Find Deirdre's books on the Horror and Thriller page. Deirdre has three series going. The ongoing series are the Paranormal Investigators League series and the Daphne Winters Psychic Investigation series.
The PIL series is eight books strong now, seven adventures and the origin story. They are, in order, Voodoo in Savannah, A Hanging in Tucson, Suicide on Sunset, The Legend of Providence, Darkness in Denver, Spirits in Seattle, Creepy Doll in Detroit and The Origin Story.
The Daphne series is newer and contains only three titles as of this writing, the award-winning The Body and the Soul, Finding Maddy and the recently released Dropped Dead.
Both these series are ongoing and Deirdre promises more adventures in both (with a new Daphne book in the works).
Deirdre's only series that is not ongoing is The Dark Prophecy trilogy. The Dark Prophecy is complete and not ongoing. (If you want to find out why, read the trilogy.)
If you're new to the PIL series and want to check it out, I suggest you try Voodoo in Savannah, the first of the series and still the most popular, although if one of the others sounds more up your alley, then by all means try that one. Then, to add to your collection, or to complete it, check out the bundles. If you like the one you decided to sample, get the rest in a 3-pack bundle and a couple of 2-pack bundles. If you want to go a little more slowly, get one 2-pack bundle, or even get another single title and then opt for a 3-pack bundle. Since there are eight PIL titles now, the cheapest way to get them all is to buy Voodoo in Savannah and another title (A Hanging in Tucson, maybe) in a 2-pack bundle, and then get the rest in two 3-pack bundles. There are all sorts of possibilities. In any case, a bundle is the cheapest way to fill out your collection. The Daphne books and the Dark Prophecy books are also available in a bundle. And the bundles are also available at a discount during the sale.
Here's an example of how much bundling can save you. (The example uses regular prices.) Individually the books in The Dark Prophecy trilogy would cost you $41.97. A 3-pack bundle runs $35.99. That's a savings of $5.98, or almost $2.00 per volume. That's the same with all 3-pack bundles. (The per/volume savings with 2-pack bundles is almost $1.50, not as much as with a 3-pack bundle, but still substantial.)
No matter how you do it, as a single title or in a bundle, all the books ordered through the website will be signed by the author.
Jack has seven novels, which you can find on the Science Fiction & Fantasy page. Jack's first six novels are in a '"The Worlds of" series, but the "series" designation is just a way to connect them all to Jack Lawson. They don't form a connected series--they have nothing to do with each other except the author, but if you think you might like more than one of them, they are available in bundles too.
His seventh novel, The Nehring Proect, is out now. it's not part of the Worlds series only because of its size. It'll keep you busy through many, many evenings. (You can read any two of the Worlds books in the same time.)
Jack's nonfiction book, Star Trek Genesis, is described on its own page. No bundle possibility on these last two, unfortunately. Sorry.
Eleazar Lawson's wargame, Battles for Prydain, is in stock. it was not available for a while, but it's back now, so feel free to order. Battles has proven to be extremely popular so we're glad to be able to offer it again. You'll find it on its own page. (Unfortunately, this is the only game we offer until Void Demon comes out. And, also unfortunately, the game is not discounted. Again, sorry.)
We still have romance novels by Gabriela Lawson, and poetry, Falling with Grace, by Graciela C. Hutchins.
All in-stock items are available for immediate shipping. And all of our books are available signed by the author at no extra cost when ordered through the website. And, remember, too, when you order through the website, shipping in the United States is always free.
SJVP is just starting out so we're still small, but stick around and watch us grow.
