    ..Nick,

    Hi.

    Hope this isn't obnoxious (though I'm sure it is), but I just wanna drop word that my new sexploitation epic is on sale right now for only $10.85 on Amazon if you'd like to pick up a copy. I think you might like it. It's really fun. These are early copies as the pub date is set for April 1st.

    I'd appreciate any help in getting the word out about my new book, of course. (If you can announce it anywhere I would be eternally grateful.)

    If you'd like to pick up a copy, here's the link, if it works: http://www.amazon.com/Permanent-Obscurity-Cautionary-Misadventures-Pornography/dp/0971341540

    This is a sexploitation/exploitation style (black comedy) narrative -- so it starts with the (female) narrator in prison, relating her tragic sordid "cautionary tale."

    In many ways, it's also a satire about bohemia and what it's like to be an artist (a.k.a. loser) in America.

    I have a website for it: PermanentObscurity.com -- http://permanentobscurity.com

    "Permanent Obscurity" of course is what we all fear as artists. I talk about the title a bit on the website, and where I got it from -- you might be interested.

    Thanks again, man.

    Hang in.

    -- Rich

About me:

Nick Sagan is the author of the novels: Idlewild, Edenborn, and Everfree. He is the son of astronomer Carl Sagan and artist/writer Linda Salzman. His greeting--"Hello from the children of planet Earth"--was recorded and placed aboard NASA's Voyager I and Voyager II spacecraft, which are now the most distant human-made objects in the universe. The writer of numerous screenplays and television episodes (including Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Voyager) Sagan dropped out of high school, but went on to graduate summa cum laude from UCLA Film School. Visit his website and his blog.

Who I'd like to meet:

You. If you've read my books, come say hello. And if you haven't read me yet, let me try to persuade you...

Idlewild is a "genre-buster," mixing elements of fantasy, science fiction, mystery and horror. Some have called it an apocalyptic coming of age story and others see it as a gothic tale of unrequited love. Neil Gaiman called it, "absolutely fun, like a roller-coaster ride of fusion fiction" and "the kind of book you simply don't want to stop reading." Barnes & Noble and Borders both selected this as one of the best F/SF books of the year. I'd tell you more about it, but you're better off going in not knowing too much about the plot. Still, to give you a flavor of it, here's a picture of the antihero: ..Halloween...

Edenborn is a sequel to Idlewild, but can also be read as a standalone. SFX Magazine called it, "one of the best post-apocalyptic novels you will ever read." SF Crowsnest hailed it as, "an adrenaline shot straight into the heart of SF," and SF Site called it, "elegant SF, dark and haunting, with characters who linger in memory long after the last page is turned." Here's a picture of ..Deuce and Penny.., two characters from Edenborn.

Everfree is my newest, third in the series. Sci Fi Weekly calls it, "startlingly original" and "undeniably satisfying and triumphant." Kirkus Reviews says, "Sagan's mind-blowing post-apocalyptic trilogy comes to a satisfying, terrifying conclusion." They go on to hail the book as, "a powerful plea for sensible human cooperation delivered via a knockout story."
