Warren Adler E-Sheet Archives

Over the past several months, I have received numerous requests from readers of our E-sheets, as well as from other interested parties in and out of the publishing world, to provide some assessment of our progress. After all, we are blazing a trail into the wilds of new technology as it relates to books, and people want to know if we are making successful headway. Well, here it is.

It's been more than a year since I plunged with both feet (and wallet) into this great adventure of using technology to create greater accessibility and awareness of my novels and to support the future of my new works.

The first major step of this process entailed the reacquisition of nearly all of my publishing and subsidiary rights in North America and in the thirty foreign languages in which my books have been translated and published. The next (big) step was to take all this varied material and digitize it to make it computer ready for action.

As a result of this effort by our publishing company Stonehouse Press, my novels are once again available for purchase in the English language in every conceivable format, through eBook downloads and print-on-demand technology in trade paperback and hardcover everywhere in the world where books are sold.

My books can be purchased through Barnes and Noble, Amazon, Powell's, Borders, BooksAMillion, Fictionwise, PreviewPort, and through many other online sites, and can be ordered from brick and mortar bookstores everywhere. Our next thrust will be to link with sites and stores in other countries to provide them with our previously translated works. We will begin with French, German, Spanish and Portuguese languages, then follow up with our Asian translations.

Before this enterprise with Stonehouse, many of my books were out-of-print and could only be found rummaging around The Strand or at your favorite used bookstore. Now they are once again selling thousands of copies a year. Not bad. In addition, the list of places to find our books and eBooks keeps getting bigger. Stonehouse eBooks are now being sold on MobiPocket.com, eBookAD.com and soon on Galaxy Library. Print-on-demand versions are becoming available through Barnes and Noble and as part of a major new initiative by R.R. Bowker's "Books in Print." Bowker, the leading provider of bibliographic information in North America, has partnered with Booksurge to make available Booksurge's innovative on-demand book printing service to publishers of all sizes, and Stonehouse is right there at the forefront of this exciting new development.

No other author with my output -- 25 novels published by major publishers worldwide and spanning three decades -- has ever done this before....

EBook Reviews Weekly
by Nikesh Murali

If The War of the Roses, Warren Adler's masterpiece, inspired one of the most famous movies on divorce, Cult will evoke in you a fear, a dread that reiterates itself every moment, a lack of poise that turns deadly with each breath you take and forces you to take a step back and analyze the little aquarium in which you have let your concepts regarding society and life swim freely...

With a really good cover and an absolutely terrific tale in between, Cult goes down as one of the best fiction works of all time, which has taken up the responsibility of holding a mirror to our mottled society. Hats off to the master. Read entire review.
