How to get the latest versions of the books

Happy News! There are brand-new versions of the ebooks and paperbacks. Everything has been re-proofed, the typos hunted down and fed to the dragonets, and the formatting tidied so the books now look their very best.

If you have the paperbacks, nothing significant has changed. In fact, your originals might be collector’s items one day, the very first versions with all the errors in. But if you’re thinking of gifting book one to anybody, you may relax because it will be a version without all the errors in. Which is always lovely, isn’t it?

Kindle Unlimited

For Kindle Unlimited readers, it’s easy:
Return the book to KU – The three dots on the cover.
Wait a couple of days minimum (or a week … if Life Happens)
Borrow it again when you’re ready to re-read

When you re-borrow it, you’ll automatically get the updated version—and all your notes and highlights stay exactly where you left them. Always.

If you’ve purchased the Kindle ebook, you can also ask Amazon to push the updated version directly to your device.

How do I do that?

I really wish Amazon made this clearer. Because we still get lovely messages about typos that were fixed weeks—or sometimes several years ago, simply because the reader has never refreshed their book. And truly, I’d always rather you tell me than worry in silence … but getting the newest version will make reading much smoother for you.

This is the first time I’ve given the entire series a true overhaul—as opposed to a quick typo/error fix. So it won’t be something you’ll need to do often. But I’d much prefer you to have the best possible reading experience with every page.

If only the pages could change on the fly like THE Book does—wouldn’t that be a dream come true?
