Aether and Ego pre-ordering

I’m so excited to see pre-order options pop up across the globe! I keep feeling like

Aether and Ego is a steampunk retelling of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, set in the mid-1840s, with the addition of space travel, dogs, and accidental death.

If you live in Canada, ordering from my publisher helps keep them putting out amazing books (like the dystopian Everything You Dream is Real by Lisa de Nikolits, the L.A.-to-18th-century-London time slip story The Loneliness of the Time Traveller by Erika Rummel, Ursula Pflug’s collection Seeds and Other Stories, or the post-modern fable A Hostage by Charlotte Mendel).

Edited to add: Want a signed copy? If you’re in Canada, you can get signed copies by ordering from Bookmark. If in the US, order from Bookshop.org and email me your mailing address (to joannemerriam at gmail) so I can send you a signed bookplate.

If you live in the US, save on shipping charges (or, depending on the week, tariffs) by ordering from Bookshop.org. I’ll get a small affiliate payment in addition to my royalties, and Bookshop benefits local bookstores.

Alternatively, no matter where you live, ordering from your local bookstore benefits your local economy and writing community. Folks in the US and Canada can find local bookstores at Bookmanager (click the “shop local” button) or at IndieCommerce.

There’s also, of course, Amazon (Canada, Italy, Spain, US), Barnes & Noble (US), and Indigo (Canada). Presumably it’ll show up soon at the UK Bookshop, Waterstones, etc.

You can also help this book find its audience by requesting that your library buy a copy, and leaving reviews at Goodreads or wherever it is sold online!
