Signed Copies of COLD, BLACK & INFINITE

Read on for details on the pre-order and how to get a free bookplate!

By popular demand (and with the blessing of my publisher), I will be taking pre-orders for signed copies of COLD, BLACK & INFINITE on my website beginning next Friday, August 25th.

Now, the last time I did this was for the original release of DEVIL’S CREEK, and there were around 150 pre-orders. The logistics of personalizing, packaging, and mailing them all was something I hadn’t really thought through at the time, so…

Here’s how this is going to play out:

·       This pre-order will be limited to the paperback edition.

·       Pre-orders will be limited to 100 copies.

·       Pre-orders will be accepted for one week, with a firm deadline of EOD 9/1/23.

·       There will be a $5 premium tacked on to the pre-order price to cover packaging materials.

·       Your books will not ship until after the release date.

The item listing is scheduled to go live in my shop at 12:00 AM Friday, August 25th. Good luck.

FAQ

What if I already pre-ordered the book? Are those copies signed?

I know several of you have already pre-ordered the book direct through Cemetery Dance, and to answer your question, no, those copies will not be signed. As a solution, I’m offering to send a signed bookplate free of charge to anyone who has pre-ordered direct through Cemetery Dance.

To qualify, all you have to do is send me your receipt/order confirmation with the subject line CBI RECEIPT to my website email todd@toddkeisling.com by the release date of 9/26/23. Limit one per customer.

Should I just cancel my pre-order and order direct from you?

No, please don’t do that. Pre-order sales make the publishing world go ‘round, and a book’s sales numbers matter greatly to both an author and a publisher. If you’ve already ordered the book elsewhere, please don’t cancel your order. Take advantage of the bookplate offer.

I live outside the US and shipping is too expensive. How do I get a signature?

I know international shipping is ridiculously expensive and cost-prohibitive for folks who live outside the continental US. I’m sorry that I can’t make it cheaper. My advice here is to order the book from your favorite retailer and send me the receipt per the instructions above. A free bookplate is the best I can do in this case. Thank you for understanding.

I missed the deadline for the bookplates. Can I still get one?

Yes, bookplates may be purchased from my shop for a flat $5 USD. Ships anywhere in the world.

If you have a question that isn’t covered here, don’t hesitate to ask via my site’s contact form.

Thanks for your continued support and patronage!

Cheers,
