The Complete Buzz Books Honor Roll

May 15, 2015By Michael Cader

Our latest free Buzz Books ebook samplers are off to a great start, with lots of downloads, active press and social media, and already dozens of enthusiastic reviews showing up online as people have come to eagerly await these seasonal editions. And it’s no wonder once you have a look at the complete list below of forthcoming books and authors previewed in our two ebooks.

As noted, you can collect the “trade editions” as EPUBs or through NetGalley from this page (for the adult edition) and this one (for the young adult edition). Or just pick up the consumer editions through your ebookstore of choice, all linked through our main Buzz Books web site.

Here is what you’ll find in the two books (along with our big preview of the full fall/winter publishing season). All of the asterisked authors will be appearing at BEA as well:
