Indie August Sales Extravaganza!
There’s plenty to sink your teeth into this Indie August, with sales and bundles galore.
Indie August often plays second-fiddle to its earlier cousin, Indie April, but it shouldn’t! It’s just as impactful for indie authors as the spring event, and this year, it’s determined to prove it. As usual, my books are involved in some of the big sales this month so I thought it would be helpful to list them all out in one blog post for reference, rather than spam multiple throughout the month. The first one’s coming up really soon—just this week, in fact!
The Epic Sale of Beloved SFF | August 7—11
Hosted by Noor Al-Shanti. There will be over 100 recommended books on sale, each with a recommendation from someone who loved it! The sale will also include 50+ additional books including many sequels and even some complete series. And there will be SPFBO and SPSFC books including some finalists and semi-finalists. During this sale, The Re-Emergence will be discounted to just 0.99 or equivalent in all ebook retailers.

First In Series Speculative Fiction Itch.io Bundle | August 9—15
Hosted by Niranjan. You can get From the Grave of the Gods and 30 other speculative fiction books bundled together for only $31! At a dollar per book that’s an absolute steal. This one is only available from Itch.io.

Short Story/Novella Itch.io Bundle | August 17—21
Hosted by Niranjan. This is the first time I’m including The God Sun in an Itch.io bundle, so you can get that plus a whole bunch of other short stories/novellas all together at a special discounted price. This one is only available from Itch.io.
Bundle Page to be confirmed—watch out on the socials, as I’ll be posting about it.
The Narratess Indie Book Sale | August 23—25
Hosted by Tessa Hastjarjanto of Narratess. Another chance to get From the Grave of the Gods, on its own this time, for just 0.99 or equivalent from all ebook retailers. As usual there will likely be hundreds of incredible books from a wide array of talented indie authors. There will be books at three different discount levels: 1.99, 0.99, or Free, so it’s always well worth going through the whole list and grabbing a stack. Every sale helps and goes directly to supporting authors, letting us continue to write the stories you love.

There’s going to be so many great indie books on sale or in bundles this month it’s mind-boggling. The Epic Sale of Beloved SFF and Narratess sale will both feature a wide array of individual books to pick up from remarkable authors, so I really recommend you check them out. I’ll be posting about them plenty on BlueSky, Threads, Facebook, and Instagram as the sales continue. So watch this space.
Then, after Indie August is over, Niranjan is likely to host another Itch.io bundle for Second in Series Speculative Fiction as a follow-up to this month’s one, and there will be spooky stuff as we approach October. So there will be lots of great opportunities to support authors going forward.
