For anyone who will be reading "Dyrwolf," I just set it up to be free on Amazon starting tomorrow (Saturday 5/4-Sunday 5/5) so that's one way to grab your copy. Looking forward to reading some great books as soon as the round is finalized! 😊
For anyone reading The Waypoint, I don't know how to make it free, but it's $1.00 on Amazon. Alternatively, I can provide you with an e-mailed Kindle file, a paperback if you provide your address via PM and live in the US, a download code to get it on Audible if you'd like the audio book, or you can go to www.undinestudios.com/blog/thewaypoint/ and read it--it's mobile friendly! Just let me know, I'm flexible!

Please remember the commitment you are making to your fellow group members. If you pull out after the start date for any reason it is the other members who will be faced with the problem of finding a replacement, or missing out on reads/reviews, through no fault of their own. Please don’t ask the moderators to chase after replacements as we just don’t have the time.
It is the responsibility of the author to get their book to their readers in a format the reviewer can manage. Everyone must be able to provide and accept PDF. You may buy or borrow the books you are due to read if you wish, and I’m sure the author will appreciate the verified review, but IT IS NOT COMPULSORY. There are no set dates for the start of each round. You can each work at your own pace, within the limits of the round deadlines.
All reviews must be posted to GR. We also encourage members to post on Amazon. When you have posted your reviews, please post the links to each of your reviews, not the book page in this thread.
The mod of each round will record whether members have posted reviews on Amazon and for the good of all, members who persistently fail to post reviews or DNF reviews to Amazon, will find mods less than willing to add them to subsequent groups.
Postings to other sites are by agreement by both author and reviewer.
If I’ve missed something that results in you being asked to review someone who has already reviewed you, please let me know asap.
To exchange book files, my advice is to use PM to give email addresses to each other (save the chance of spammers getting your addies from this open forum). Happy reviewing, everyone :)
Please consider downloading one of my books and/or one of the round mod’s books as a thank you for all the hard work we put in for the group.
Please read this especially if you are new to these review rounds.Quick 'start-up' summary for anyone new who might be scratching their heads. You should PM the four people who will be reviewing you (the four above you on the original list of names) through their Goodreads author pages. Click on the down arrow beside the 'Follow Author' button under their picture and it opens a menu which will allow you to message them.
Ask what kind of file they would like or say you can only offer PDF, though unless a publisher uploaded it for you, you can always download a .mobi of your own book from Amazon.
Don't forget to ask where to send it so they can give you their email.
The four people who you are reviewing should be in touch with you in a similar way.
You can, of course, choose to buy any or all of the books instead, or read the books on KU, if you are a subscriber and the books are available there. If you can buy it adds weight to your review as it gives the 'Verified Purchase' stamp on Amazon.
Please make sure you have exchanged ALL FOUR books - or have been assured by your reviewers they will buy your book or read it through KU - as soon as possible. Some people read fast and it can be very frustrating to have to wait a long time to get hold of a book you are committed to review.
Don't forget to post the links to your reviews here so you can be signed off for them.
Finally, recent changes on Amazon mean that we are now asking you to post your review to your own Amazon store and any others you might have access to as well.
The mod for this round is Warren Dean who will be by in a few to say hello and hand out pink sombreros to the truly deserving ;)
Franca, D. and Kat, I shall be picking up your books from the Mighty Zon either by purchase or through KU.S.D. - I'd like to do the same with your book but can't seem to find the Amazon link to it. Could you share that here please so that I and any other of your reviewers who want to access it directly can do so.
Jeremy, Bruce, Florian, and E.M., I bought your books and I look forward to reading them!
SD, Kat, Stacie, and Ben, I've purchased your books so no need to send them. Happy Reading.
Cheers, Ben! Likewise, I'll just buy Bruce, Florian, E.M. and Franca's books as I go. If anyone intends to read Saturnius Mons via KU, please download it before May 11th. I'm taking it off KU then as part off a presale campaign for the second book. Of course, hit me up if you want me to send you a copy, I've got .ebook, .mobi and .pdf copies standing by.And a reminder you can listen to it as a free podcast here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... Saturnius Mons is episodes 1-33. I would just ask that you please copy the review on your podcast app if you go that route.
Thanks, everyone, can't wait to dive into your books!

Stacie, Ben, Jeremy and Bruce, I'll be getting your books off the 'Zon, either purchasing or through KU. Looking forward to some great reads! 😊
Hi... I've purchased the books I'll be reviewing. Looking forward to reading.

thanks!
Boy, you guys are keen!It doesn't look like you're going to need much help from me but if you have any questions, don't hesitate to post them here or pm me.
Please don't forget to post the links to your reviews; it is nice for members to follow the reviews as they come out and helps me to keep score.
And there is a free sombrero in it for anyone who completes all four reviews before E.M. Swift-Hook...
Hi I’ve bought Kat, SD, Stacie and D Wallace Peach’s books. Thanks for involving me in this round.

Thanks Peach for the kind review... FYI.. for some reason goodreads doesn't have the current cver... I changed it like 3 years ago....
I think, S.D. the problem is the 'Bigfoot' series are all filed by Goodreads under 'Spike Brown' not S.D. Brown. You need to claim this author page, or contact Goodreads about how to merge those books with your existing author page:https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
On a side note , GR will not autoupdate new covers, you can however, set up a 'new cover' edition then mark that as the main version. I need to do this with my Fortune's Fools series, when I get around to it...
You're welcome, S.D. I actually like the GR cover better. But that's neither here nor there. A great story that I can't wait to read to my grandson. :-)
