    The Bigtime Series: Volume 1 set for May 7 …

    MONDAY MORNING MAILBAG

    Question: Why are you releasing bundles of your Bigtime books?

    The Bigtime Series: Volume 1 — Purple city skyline with red banner and tiny superheroesAnswer: I will be releasing two bundles of my Bigtime superhero paranormal romance books this year:

    I released a Bigtime bundle several years ago, but I feel like a lot of people just never saw it. I thought doing some bundles would be a less expensive way for readers to check out the Bigtime series.

    The Bigtime Series: Volume 1 — Pink city skyline with yellow banner and tiny superheroesI also wanted to change the bundle/book order to make it more cohesive. For example, I think it makes more sense to put Karma Girl and A Karma Girl Christmas together in one bundle since they both feature the same character in Carmen Cole, even though A Karma Girl Christmas — holiday novella #3.5 — takes place later in the series.

    And finally, I wanted to make the bundles shorter. I think a bundle that features a couple of books is much easier and a lot less daunting to read than a bundle that contains 10 or more books. But, as always, your mileage may vary.

    Both bundles are ebook only. There will not be print versions, although you can order print versions of each book separately.

    Also, there are no audiobooks for any of my Bigtime books, and no plans to produce audiobooks at this time. If that ever changes, I will post about it online.

    Thank you for reading! 😎

    SPIDER AND FROST DESCRIPTION:

    New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Estep delivers an epic team-up featuring beloved characters from her Elemental Assassin urban fantasy series and her Mythos Academy young adult series. This crossover novella, Spider and Frost, mixes magic and mythology in an action-packed adventure. Perfect for fans of Ilona Andrews, Jennifer L. Armentrout, and Rick Riordan.

    WHEN AN ASSASSIN . . .
    My name is Gin Blanco, and I’m on vacation. Sort of. As the assassin the Spider, it’s hard for me to completely relax, but I’m determined to enjoy a scenic train ride and a nice, quiet lunch before heading back home to Ashland.

    My plans change when Gwen Frost boards the train. The girl says she’s heading back to Mythos Academy, the fancy private boarding school, but I can’t shake the feeling that Gwen is hiding something—and is in far more trouble than she realizes.

    . . . MEETS A CHAMPION
    My name is Gwen Frost. I might have saved the world from Loki, the evil Norse god of chaos, but I’m still chasing down Reaper villains. It’s all part of being the Champion of Nike, the Greek goddess of victory.

    I’ve been assigned to protect some mythological artifacts that are being transported via train to Mythos Academy, but some Reapers are hot on my trail, and they’ll do anything to recover the artifacts—and kill me.

    Also on the train is Gin Blanco, who claims to be the owner of the Pork Pit barbecue restaurant. My psychometry magic keeps whispering that there’s more to her than meets the eye, although I can’t tell if Gin is a friend, an enemy, or something else entirely.

    Note: Spider and Frostis a 28,000-word crossover novella between the Elemental Assassin urban fantasy series and the Mythos Academy young adult series. It is told from the points of view of Gin Blanco and Gwen Frost.

    Spider and Frost takes place after the events of Last Strand, book 19 in the Elemental Assassin series.
