Pre-Order Stage Two of Monarch (Larva)

In two months Monarch: Larva (Caterpillar) will be releasing.  For a limited time only you can pre-order Stage Two for only $0.99.

Much like with the release of Stage One (Egg), the price will go up once the book is available to read.

You can purchase all four stages at once for just $3.99 here.

Maybe you bought Stage One and aren't sold on the whole thing yet.  Hey, I got your back.  For $0.99 more you can continue to test the waters with Stage Two when it releases on May 31, 2012.

Some of you may be wondering, "Are these stages all stand alone, so that if you didn't read Stage One but wanted to read Stage Two you could do so?"

While I would suggest that you read the first stage before reading Stage Two, I suppose you could read just Stage Two and feel partially sated.  It would be a bit like eating only one meal in a day--you could do it, but only a model would tell you that it is a good idea.    

The second part of Monarch is named and patterned after the second stage in the life cycle of the Monarch Butterfly: the larva stage, or caterpillar, which more people are probably familiar with.  In that stage, the caterpillar becomes a creature of consumption, mindlessly consuming milkweed.

In the case of the novel, the main character, Ginger Reed, is trying to gather and consume as much information about what might happen on 12/21/2012 as she can.  Because of this, she neglects her duties as mother and wife as she tries to prepare for all the "what if" scenarios that she keeps inundating herself with.

Just like with Stage One, I will be releasing a PREVIEW to all of those who have already purchased.  It will be released shortly before the release date of Stage Two on 5/31/2012.  This will probably happen sometime around Mother's Day on 5/13/2012, roughly two weeks prior to the release date.

So remember, for only $0.99 you can ensure that you get the best price on Stage Two before prices go up, then you--along with those who purchase all four stages of Monarch for just $3.99--will get a preview of Monarch: Larva (Caterpillar) before anyone else will see it.  But only if you pre-order through Amazon.
