for immediate release

From Thursday, October 11, to Monday, October 15, independent publishing house StarWarp Concepts—the company behind such critically acclaimed titles as Blood Feud: The Saga of Pandora Zwieback, Book 1 and Lorelei: Sects and the City—will be hosting its first online convention.

At the StarWarp Concepts Book Festival, all of the company’s print titles will be available at the same discounts that are offered at traditional conventions (plus postage), and prices on e-books will be reduced. In addition, visitors will be able to download free digital comics and print out their own attendee badge. Just add your own cosplayers, and you’ll have the full convention experience!

Debuting at the festival will be the digital edition of the graphic novel Lorelei: Sects and the City, a Mature Readers story written by Steven A. Roman (The Saga of Pandora Zwieback), with art by Eliseu Gouveia (The Phantom), Steve Geiger (Web of Spider-Man), and Neil Vokes (Fright Night). In this homage to 1970s horror comics and movies, a soul-stealing succubus battles a cult of Elder God worshipers seeking to rule the world. Normally priced at $5.99, the 152-page e-book will be discounted to $3.99 during the five-day event; after October 15 it will return to its original price.

The StarWarp Concepts Book Festival runs from Thursday, October 11, until Monday, October 15. To join in on the experience, just head to the show site on Thursday, when it opens its cyberdoors:
