Phoenix Tales Paired with Collection by Award-winning Author

Phoenix Tales: Stories of Death & Life, by rising author Gregory Bernard Banks, has been paired with award-winning author China Mieville’s latest collection on Amazon.com—Phoenix Tales: Stories of Death & Life (1-4116-2035-6, Trade paperback, 248 pp, 6 x 9, $16.95).

(PRWEB) November 6, 2005 -- In a special November promotion on Amazon.com, Phoenix Tales: Stories of Death & Life has been paired with Looking for Jake: Stories, by award-winning author China Mieville. In the promotion readers may purchase both books together for a 5% discount off their regular price.

In other news, Banks’ well-received second collection will appear in an ad in the December issue of “Realms of Fantasy Magazine” along with two other authors, Julie Ann Dawson and Harry Gilleland, authors of September And Other Stories and Bob the Dragon Slayer, respectively. And after a glowing review by “The Dragon Page Radio Talk Show” reviewer Joe Murphy, Gregory Banks did an interview with “Cover to Cover” hosts Mike and Evo, which is available via podcast at: http://www.dragonpage.com/archives/cover_to_cover_183.html.

While Gregory Banks describes book sales as “slow, but steady,” he remains greatly for all the positive reviews he continues to receive, and believes that the book’s sales will continue to grow over time. Meanwhile the author continues to work on new writing projects while providing layout and design services for other would-be self published authors. “Professionalism in a book’s presentation is even more important in the self publishing industry,” Banks says, “and hopefully my work will help others make their dreams come true, just as mine have.”

Phoenix Tales: Stories of Death & Life is available directly from printer/distributor Lulu (www.lulu.com), the world's fastest-growing provider of print-on-demand books, as well as from most major bookstores worldwide. Phoenix Tales is also now available in ebook format exclusively from StoneGarden.net.
