Darkmatter Is Now In Print!!! _______________________________________________________________________ Steven William Rimmer's classic espionage thriller Darkmatter is now available in paperback, through the thaumaturgy of Amazon's print-on- demand books. The Amazon print edition is unabridged and undoes all manner of iniquities wrought upon the earlier small-press versions of Darkmatter. Should you not have encountered this technology previously, print-on- demand does pretty much what it says on the box. When you order a copy of Darkmatter through Amazon, a digital press prints one book, just for you. Remarkably, the production quality of print-on-demand books is if anything better than that of commercial mass-market fiction. In addition, your book will have been manufactured a few days before you receive it, rather than having been stored for months in a warehouse in Duluth. The production costs of print-on-demand books being relatively low, we've been able to use really nice paper, large trade-size pages and big, readable type. Because these books are sold trough Amazon, you can enjoy free shipping with a Prime account, or if you buy enough other stuff to reach their free shipping threshold. Finally, print-on-demand means pretty much zero waste. Every copy of Darkmatter that gets printed will actually be sold. By comparison, traditional publishing could see three quarters of the books that were manufactured ultimately being "remaindered" and destroyed. Please see: http://www.stevenwilliamrimmer.com/darkmatter.html to enjoy Darkmatter in print... and learn some conversational Russian not suitable for polite company. (Note that as of this writing, Amazon Canada hadn't picked up the print edition of Darkmatter. It should be available in a day or so.) _______________________________________________________________________ 5.
