Damnation and Dames Launched in the West and East

Damnation and Dames, our latest anthology of 16 stunning tales of paranormal noir, was launched in Perth and Melbourne over the Easter weekend.

On Good Friday, Marianne de Pierres, best-selling creator of the Tara Sharp series, launched the title at SwanCon 37 in Perth. Co-editor Liz Grzyb and contributor Pete Kempshall were on hand to sign books for a fantastic audience.

Today, Notions Unlimited Bookshop in Melbourne hosted the east coast launch, where Kirstyn McDermott did the honours. Co-editor Amanda Pillar was in attendance, along with a star-studded audience.

In an attempt to stir up some east-west rivalry, we're happy to reveal that the Perth launch sold the most copies!
