Category: Series: Alpha Underground (Page 1 of 5)

All the news I apparently didn’t think was fit to print…

April 10, 2023 / Aimee Easterling / 0 Comments

If you’re an audio fan, you might have missed Wolf Trap hitting all retailers in listenable form. The ebook will also be dropping out of Kindle Unlimited and reaching the non-Amazon sites in two short weeks.

Finally, if you have friends who prefer to read in German, I hope you’ll mention that the translated version of Mai’s series is now bundled up (and the first book is free) while Kira’s first adventure has been translated as well.

Phew, that’s a lot of new stuff! I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Wolf’s Pack

October 14, 2020 / Aimee Easterling / 0 Comments

Wolfie: I want my whole pack together.

Me: Well, things happened in other series that mean certain members of your pack can’t live within your territory….

Wolfie: Whatever. I want them all in one place.

Me: I can’t rewrite the past….

Wolfie: [grabbing my keyboard and opening a new word-processing document] Just copy [click] and paste [click]. Now we need the commentary. [Handing the keyboard back] I’ll talk and you type.

Me: [deep breath] I’m ready.

***

Thus began Wolf’s Pack, a super-gigantic box set with all the novels, novellas, and side stories in one place for the Wolf Rampant, Alpha Underground, and Wolf Legacy series. At Wolfie’s request, I’ve even marked the result down from $24.99 to $19.99 for two days starting now to reward you, the members of his virtual pack.

That said, if you’re a long-time reader, even 44% off buying the books individually might not be worth your while. The price is only a good deal if your collection is missing five books or more, or if you really want all of the extras (including historical covers and never-before-seen ~~browbeating~~ commentary by Wolfie).

Plus, if you only read on a kindle, I’m afraid you’re out of luck — Amazon doesn’t give authors a sustainable royalty if we price our books above $9.99. On the other hand, what better time could there be than now to try out one of the other retailers? Kobo has a waterproof ereader (I’m drooling!) and Google’s price for Wolf’s Pack is just a hair cheaper than anywhere else. Personally, I also adore Nook (although their website has been broken all week, so you may have to wait a few days to buy there).

Whichever site you choose, I hope you enjoy the result!

Popular werewolf quotes

February 14, 2020 / Aimee Easterling / 0 Comments

I recently remembered the function on my kindle where I can turn on popular highlights. Last time I checked my books, there weren’t all that many quotes that had been selected by enough readers to show up. But, lo and behold, now there are a bunch more!

I thought you might enjoy seeing some of the reader favorite lines from my permafrees (all of which can be found within the box set Shifter Origins or within Wolf’s Bane if you want to keep reading). Some of the quotes aren’t by characters you’d expect. Pretty cool to see which parts of my stories stuck to the majority of people!

Half Wolf quote

“I joined your pack, I led your hunts, I kissed you, because I loved you.” — Ginger in Half Wolf

Huntress Born quote

“My greatest weapon — the mighty cupcake — had come through at last.” — Ember in Huntress Born

Jaguar at the Portal quote

“The woman in front of her didn’t own a pet because no one had ever stroked her ego and no one had ever showered her with love and affection. In the end, she wasn’t willing to accept even a non-human companion until she herself felt entirely safe.” — Finn in Jaguar at the Portal

Shiftless quote

“Halfies and full humans and a few crazy purebloods like me.” — Chase in Shiftless

Wolf's Bane quote

“Foxes are world-class climbers and pretty good jumpers. But I wasn’t just a fox. I was a kitsune — ten times better than that.” — Mai in Wolf’s Bane

Don’t see your favorite quote here? I’d love to hear which line stuck with you. Just click on the facebook post to comment:

2019 in review

December 24, 2019 / Aimee Easterling / 0 Comments

I saw another author make a post about everything she’d launched this year and promptly decided to steal the idea. So, without further ado, 2019 publications just in case you missed one the first time around!

Aimee Easterling's 2019 releases

New releases:

Wolf Dreams — After spending several months wide, the first book in the Moon Blind duology went into Kindle Unlimited in November.

Moon Dancer — The second book in the Moon Blind duology is also currently in KU.

Thirteenth Werewolf and Other Stories — This wide anthology is full of stories that were originally written as newsletter-only freebies, but the first story is brand new.

Moon Stalked — The first book in a new series. This one launched on all retailers but soon thereafter I pulled it into Kindle Unlimited. It will be wide again at some point, though, so please don’t despair if you missed the official launch window.

Alpha’s Hunt — This will be on 2020’s list officially. But, just in case you want to jumpstart the new decade, book two in the Woelfin Awakening series is up for preorder now on all retailers.

2019 werewolf box sets

Box sets:

Moon Marked Trilogy — I recently bundled up my reader-favorite series, and the resulting box set will be at a special 99-cent price point for one more day. Grab it while it’s cheap!

Wolf Nights — This is a multi-author, free box set. I picked some of my favorite authors to include, so I highly recommend trying it out.

Magic After Dark — I’m afraid you missed this limited-time, multi-author, free box set if you weren’t reading along all year. I’ve linked to its Goodreads page in case you want to check out the included authors. Once again, I chose novels I thought my readers would particularly enjoy.

Aimee Easterling's 2019 audio releases

Audio:

Newly available on all retailers and via your local library: Wolf’s Bane, Shadow Wolf, and Fox Blood. (Well, Fox Blood is currently seeping into retailers. It is 100% definitely on Kobo, though, and should reach the others by the end of the year…I hope.)

Newly available on Amazon, Audible, and Apple: Lone Wolf Dawn, Wolf Landing, the Alpha Underground Trilogy bundle, Alpha Ascendant, and the Wolf Rampant Trilogy bundle.

What’s coming up in 2020?

I can definitely tell you I will write words! Not sure how many or in what form or when they’ll reach your ereaders/headphones. If you want up-to-the-minute release information, be sure to sign up for my email list. Have a great new year!

Falling into audio

November 5, 2019 / Aimee Easterling / 0 Comments

As you may have noticed, this autumn has been all about audio. Since I posted last, the Alpha Underground Trilogy has been completed in audio — a great deal for Audible subscribers since you can snag three books for one credit! I’ve also approved the audio for Shadow Wolf and Alpha Ascendant, so those titles should be on or hitting your favorite retailers within the next few weeks.

Meanwhile, I’ve teamed up with a bunch of other paranormal authors to spread the audio love with a giveaway. Despite what the graphic above says, you have until November 21 to enter for a chance to win one of dozens of audiobooks.

What’s up next? There will be a box set version of the Wolf Rampant Trilogy coming down the pike in December, and the Moon Marked series will finish up in audio likely in January.

In the meantime, of course, I’ve been writing new books to hit your ereaders if you prefer not to listen. I’m really excited about Moon Stalked, the first chapters of which will show up here within the week. So watch this space!

News, news, news!

April 25, 2019 / Aimee Easterling / 0 Comments

First of all, I realized I never explicitly told you that Wolf Dreams is live! If you’re on the fence about giving it a try, here are some reviews to change your mind:

A smart, educated, amazing lead female character with a few flaws…both funny and relatable — Summer Rain

Fast-paced and laced with mystery and suspense — Tamara Kasyan

Sparks fly as danger ensues in epic proportions — Kaye

Angst, drama, emotions and romance with a bit of mystery thrown in — Robin Smith

Full of excitement and humor and fun — LHill

My new favorite from Aimee Easterling — Shadowcat

If you’d rather listen rather than read, the second book in my Alpha Underground series is now available as an audiobook. My narrator tells me that book three will probably be out in June. (And, if you missed it, book one is available in audio as well.)

Finally, don’t be shocked if you see Shiftless with a new cover. I’ve loved all of this book’s covers (with the possible exception of my homemade effort on the far left), but there’s a reason books get a facelift every few years. Readers who’ve decided they don’t want any part of a book might give it a try with a new cover, and styles change over time.

To cut a long story short, Shiftless has a new look and the rest of the series will soon as well. I hope you enjoy the update!

Alpha Underground box set

March 21, 2017 / Aimee Easterling / 0 Comments

I decided to splurge and get an entirely new cover made for my Alpha Underground box set…and it’s gorgeous! In the meantime, the rest of the series (including the box set) has now rolled out to all major retailers.

So if you’ve been waiting patiently to read Fen’s story on Nook, iBooks, Kobo, Google Play, or Smashwords, you’re finally good to go. Find the Alpha Underground Series on your favorite retailer here

For non-Amazon readers — thank you so much for your patience! I hope you enjoy reading the stories as much as I enjoyed writing them.

Alpha Underground going wide

March 5, 2017 / Aimee Easterling / 0 Comments

Now that the Alpha Underground series is complete, I’m bringing each book wide (to non-Amazon retailers) as their KDP Select term ends. Dark Wolf Adrift is already available everywhere that ebooks are sold:

In fact, Dark Wolf Adrift is currently on sale for only 99 cents at Smashwords as part of their Read an Ebook Week.

Stay tuned for another post as Half Wolf follows Dark Wolf Adrift into the stormy waters outside the world’s biggest ebook retailer. And, in the meantime, if you’ve already read and enjoyed Dark Wolf Adrift, I hope you’ll consider leaving a review on one of the new retailers listed above. Your kind words help get the book off to a good start and ensure that Hunter’s story reaches beyond the choir. Thank you!

Wolf Landing Is Live!

I’m pleased to announce that Wolf Landing is live and free to borrow if you subscribe to Kindle Unlimited! If you’ve been reading along with Fen’s adventures, I have a feeling you’ll love this culmination of her journey (with a special guest appearance by crowd favorite Wolfie Young!).

So give yourself the gift of reading and check it out!
