Underway: 2015 Memorial Day Sale!

Our last two Memorial Day sales were quite successful, so we’ve decided to try a third for this year. If you’ve been holding back on buying our recent releases, here’s your chance to pick them up at a discounted rate: Between now and 11:59 p.m. on Monday, May 25th, all Murania Press titles are available at 20 percent off cover price, with shipping included for purchasers in the United States.

If, for example, you’re interested in the triple-sized Blood ‘n’ Thunder 2014-15 Special Edition (pictured below), you can pick it up this weekend for $23.95 instead of the usual $29.95. J. Allan Dunn’s The Island, Volume Five in our Classic Pulp Reprints series, can be had for $15.95 as opposed to $19.95.

Did you miss out on the award-nominated Distressed Damsels and Masked Marauders, the first of our two volumes on silent-era movie serials? That, too, is temporarily available at $23.95, down from $29.95. Ditto for the best-selling book in our catalog, The Blood ‘n’ Thunder Guide to Pulp Fiction. And if you’ve missed recent back issues of Blood ‘n’ Thunder itself, you can grab them for $10.00 each, postage included, rather than $12.50.

I must stress, though, that the free shipping extends to domestic U.S. customers only. We pay considerably more for books shipped internationally (including to Canada and Mexico) and, regrettably, must pass along those additional costs. Our average charge for sending a single item to foreign buyers is $6.99, but the good news is that the increase in shipping does not go up dramatically for multiple books. So by purchasing two or three at a time during one of our sales, international customers will find their postage fees largely absorbed by saving 20 percent off each item. If you’re buying from another country, please first send us an e-mail letting us know which books you want. After calculating the cost of shipping we’ll get back to you with a Paypal invoice for the total amount.

So while you’re waiting for the grill to heat up or those cookout guests to arrive, take a look at our books and magazines. If you’re a fan of pulp fiction, vintage movies and radio dramas, we guarantee you’ll find something of interest. Maybe several somethings. Happy hunting, and happy Memorial Day!
