Our Buzz Books Monthly program continues with the October collection, available now on Amazon, iBooks, and NetGalley. You’ll find exclusive excerpts of seven titles due for publication during the month of October, and more — including, for the first time in Buzz Books, we audiobook versions of three of the featured titles, plus with a special bonus audio-only excerpt. (For now, the audio only works on iBooks and NetGalley EPUB versions; it does not work on Kindle.)
Enjoy text and audio previews on musical detective story The Prague Sonata by Bradford Morrow; Sarah Bailey’s debut suspense thriller The Dark Lake; and Life Detonated by Kathleen Murray Moran, a memoir about recovering from her husband’s death by a terrorist act. Plus, be sure to listen to Armistead Maupin’s audio excerpt from of his new memoir Logical Family, about growing up in the South and moving to San Francisco.
The other featured October excerpts are two novels:
Seven Days of Us, by Francesca Hornak
The First Day, by Phil Harrison
And two works of nonfiction:
The Spectrum of Hope, by Gayatri Devi
Where the Past Begins, by Amy Tan
