EBOOK PAGE

Here is a complete-as-possible list of my works available in e-formats.  I’ll be uploading new books and stories all the time, so if you can’t find something you want, check back in a few weeks or months and see if it’s become available.

I’m sorry that not every format is represented.   I do not control the electronic rights to all my work— in some cases, publishers paid me good money for those rights, and if they choose to limit the formats in which my books are available, there’s nothing I can do about it.  (You, however, have every right to complain to the publisher.)

For those books that I control and uploaded myself, I’ve tried at the very least to make them available for Kindle, Nook, and on Smashwords, the latter of which makes them available in a wide variety of formats, including the Sony Reader, .pdf, and HTML.

I also know that some of my books are available on iBooks and for the Sony Reader, but I do not as yet have complete listings.  Please look yourself to see what’s available.

(Actually I’d prefer if you downloaded from Smashwords rather than the iBook and Sony stores, because I get a bigger cut of the proceeds.  It’s the exact same file in any case.  But whatever works for you, my friends.)

OMG! Please, please, please … Metropolitan and City on Fire ebooks? In .epub format (or, really, anything that I can get on my iPad)?

I’d happily give you a number of my hard-earned US Dollars in exchange for that.

wjw August 30, 2011 at 3:45 am

Metropolitan and City on Fire will be made available as soon as I clear the rights. Please stay tuned.

It’s really unfortunate that the Kindle versions of your Night Shade Books are only available from Amazon in North America, I hate dealing with another vendor due to lack of credit card and I never do business by using the likes of paypal. Likewise true for dealing with fictionwise.

Glenn August 30, 2011 at 11:30 am

I notice that Rock of Ages has the [nook] label, but it’s not a link. I’m guessing that’s not deliberate.

wjw August 31, 2011 at 12:42 am

Right on all counts, Glenn! Fixed now . . .

wjw August 31, 2011 at 6:36 am

Scotoma, if you don’t have a credit card, and you won’t work with Paypal, then I don’t know how I can help you.

Scotoma August 31, 2011 at 6:51 am

IMHO, making your fiction available on the biggest platform, worldwide, which I think is Amazon at the moment. I like your books, I’m happy to see you bringing your old books to Amazon and I’m happy to buy them. But I’m also a lazy, and won’t try to get a credit card just to buy stuff on sites like Baen or Fictionwise. It’s not like I run out of books to buy on Amazon. And I doubt I’m the only one whose thinking like that.

Still, I’m happy for what I get and I have to say the Maijstral books were an utter delight to read.

Ralf The Dog August 31, 2011 at 2:57 pm

Scotoma, Authors don’t always get to choose what format a book is published in. There are factors we as readers don’t always know. The other option? Mr. Williams does not want to publish on Amazon because they are evil and destroying the publishing market. Either way, we can’t have everything in every format. Just hand a friend some cash and get them to purchase it in your name.

Mr. WJW, I look forward to Aristoi. If you need to borrow any devices of mass destruction to motivate the publishers, talk to me privately using a non traceable method.

THERE’S A DAGMAR 3!!! Thank you thank you. I actually put down Dancing with Dragons in the middle and started re-reading TINAG because I just needed something that got to an end within my life time. (Please don’t tell George, I really do like the series but he’s gotten almost as bad as P.C. Hodgell)

Glad to see your books becoming available as ebooks. Hardwired is one of my favourite novels. I’m hoping Angel Station gets a release soon, I read that almost twenty years ago, and a long time before I read Hardwired, although I didn’t mentally connect it to the same author until quite recently.

TechSlave December 24, 2011 at 11:55 pm

Glad to see so many electronic editions available – I actually came here to check and make sure they were authorized editions on the Barnes and Noble site before buying (some authors have had bad experiences with rip-offs). From a Taoseno reader, thanks for making great stories!

Mat February 10, 2012 at 10:08 am

Any chance of seeing “Investments” from the “Between Worlds” anthology?

wjw February 13, 2012 at 7:05 am

“Investments” should be up some time this year, but I can’t give you a firm date yet.

Michael E. Walston February 21, 2012 at 10:56 pm

Will we possibly see a sequel to Metropolitan and City on Fire at some point? I was sort of under the impression you had put that series on hold because there was no demand from your publisher–but doggone it, consider this a (polite) demand from a reader!

wjw February 22, 2012 at 1:47 am

Michael, I’m going to make Metropolitan and CoF available as ebooks, and then if sales justify it I’ll either publish the sequel myself or find a publisher for it.

I haven’t given up on the series yet, not by a long shot.

jec March 15, 2012 at 2:35 pm

wondering if AMBASSADOR OF PROGRESS will come out as a ebook I have wore out 2 copies already over the years.

wjw March 16, 2012 at 5:11 am

Everything will be an ebook eventually, jec. I’m throwing up my most popular books first, then working my way down the list.

Henry Farrell March 16, 2012 at 10:19 pm

Have you considered doing a Kickstarter for a M/CoF sequel? I’d be prepared both to contribute and to publicize insofar as I can …

wjw March 17, 2012 at 5:47 am

It’s under consideration. It even lets me make a living while writing, which is something I sort of need.

Alan April 20, 2012 at 4:51 pm

IMPLIED SPACES is also available from Baen ebooks. Just like Smashwords, one purchase gets you every format you might need, including “Read online”, “email to Kindle”, EPUB. (And no DRM)

TD May 16, 2012 at 12:45 am

Polite second demand for Metropolitan and COF #3. We have to have it at some point. It’s worth waiting for.

Dean September 4, 2012 at 12:38 pm

How come the Dread Empire’s Fall novels are not available on Kindle from Amazon UK, but are in the US? Investments is available in the UK though?!

wjw September 6, 2012 at 6:20 pm

Dean>> I don’t know. Apparently Harper UK hasn’t made them available.

I’ll check and see if I can get the rights reverted.

Dean September 7, 2012 at 11:53 am

Here’s hoping then, thanks!

Guy September 10, 2012 at 2:20 am

Please I need the rest of Privateers and Gentlemen! Where is Cat Island?

wjw September 10, 2012 at 9:19 pm

Guy, Bubonicon and Worldcon kinda slowed things down, but Cat Island should be available within six weeks at the latest. (Some other works first, but that’s just how the scanning jobs turned out.)

Dean September 20, 2012 at 12:11 pm

I’ve just realised that Implied Spaces and The Green Leopard Plague and Other Stories are not available for Kindle in the UK either! This is putting a real crimp in my collection ;-)

Bart October 10, 2012 at 4:27 pm

Mr. Willaims, is “The Rift” planned for an ebook deployment in the near future?

thank you for all your great writing!

wjw October 12, 2012 at 3:32 am

“The Rift” should be up within a few months, I suspect early in the New Year. That one’s a beast, and will be saved for last.

Josh January 17, 2013 at 6:25 pm

Would love to see more novels in the Dread Empire universe, I know plenty of fans would be interested in supporting them through a Kickstarter project or something similar!

Espen April 20, 2013 at 2:20 pm

Just finished Hardwired audiobook from Audible. What an experience – the narrative and the format seem made for each other.

I must have more – which exist and will you please offer audioboks here?

wjw April 22, 2013 at 10:21 pm

Your question inspired a search on my part— I know where I sold audio rights, but it’s not like they bother to inform the author when the books become available.

Voice of the Whirlwind is available on CD and via Audible, and Audible also has Deep State and the Fourth Wall— and I’ve sold the rights to This Is Not a Game as well, though this doesn’t seem to be available yet. (Are they working in reverse order, or what? Makes no sense.)

Craig May 6, 2013 at 11:59 am

Hey
I’m not one to get gushy as a rule but just finished Dread Empires Fall and absolutely loved it. Easily the best series if its kind I’ve ever read.
Only problem I have…… are there no more coming?
Sula’s “Drive On” was like a kick in the ribs !!
