$1.99 + Joss Ware = A Special Kind of Awesome

Like everyone else, it seems, I recently found myself caught up in a whirlwind of gorgeous, dark, raw and utterly well-written dystopian fiction.  Of course we had our “Dystopia” unit back in high school (LORD OF THE FLIES, BRAVE NEW WORLD, 1984), but there was something about THE HUNGER GAMES that brought it all back home. And then of course the others in Suzanne Collins’ brilliant trilogy, followed by Lauren Oliver’s super smart DELIRIUM and so on.

Well, Avonites if you’re like me and find the idea of an alternate (and yes, rather messed up) earth completely fascinating and fell in love with the likes of Katniss and the others brave enough to stand up against the Capitol, then I have some good news for you: Dystopia…sweet Dystopia…is not for YA readers only.  The very talented Joss Ware has a fantastic series—The Envy Chronicles—about five men who emerge 50 years in the future into a world nothing like the one they’ve left behind. A world where everything and everyone they knew is gone. A world where an elite group of Strangers rule and small pockets of civilization begin planning an uprising of their own.  The books are dark, gritty and sexy as hell.  If you haven’t tried Joss Ware out yet, you’re in luck!

Available now, for a few weeks only—you’ll be able to buy the first two ebooks in the series for a near steal: BEYOND THE NIGHT ($1.99!) and EMBRACE THE NIGHT ETERNAL ($3.99). You late-comers are particularly lucky since book 3, ABANDON THE NIGHT is already out and NIGHT BETRAYED just hit stores (e-retailers and otherwise) this week!

Like I said…awesome.

EMBRACE THE NIGHT ETERNAL at Barnes & Noble and Amazon

    I’d love to buy these ebooks – but despite trying many of the provided bookstores, I couldn’t as I live in Australia.

    Is this offer available for Australians?
