Ravenwolf Publishing Partners with Google eBooks to Offer "The Dancing Valkyrie," The Vampire Valkyrie" and "Adirondack Hikes in Hamilton County" as eBooks.

INDIAN LAKE, NY, December 15, 2010 (Press-News.org) Ravenwolf Publishing now has three of its books: The Dancing Valkyrie (ISBN#9781440432194), The Vampire Valkyrie (ISBN#9781452877792), and the second and newly revised edition of Adirondack Hikes in Hamilton County (ISBN # 1411675142) available from Google eBooks and ABA member stores with IndieCommerce websites.

"The Dancing Valkyrie" begins and ends in the Adirondacks of northern New York. It is the story of a young woman who is an erotic dancer at a topless club in Schenectady, NY, who becomes a vampire while on a hike in the wilds of the Adirondacks. The novel follows her rapid acclimation into being what she was born to be - a vampire with a lust for both blood and sex, and draws to a conclusion when she meets with a vampire who lives to kill other vampires - and whose name is Van Helsing.

"The Vampire Valkyrie" continues the tale of the vampire Mary Hoffman, aka Erica, the Dancing Valkyrie, who fights to protect her erotic dance club and her girls from mobsters who want to control her and her club - or kill her if she resists. A Schenectady City Councilwoman wants to pass legislation to close down or strictly limit the operation of adult businesses, an a upstate crime boss wants control of Mary and her club and a New York City crime family seeks to discredit the upstate crime boss through Mary and her club. Many people die, both the innocent and the guilty, as a result of Mary's determination to
save herself, her girls and her club, while wondering if she should stop being involved with humans and just kill all who infringe upon her freedom as a vampire.

"Adirondack Hikes in Hamilton County" is the first published hiking guide aimed only at trails and attractions in Hamilton County, NY. In addition to being a trail guide, the book offers tips on many outdoor activities, state campgrounds, local chambers of commerce and who to call in an emergency.

Peter Klein, author of the books who is now working on his third vampire book says, "Publishing is rapidly changing. Readers expect a variety of ways to access the written word. This is why I have chosen to make my books available in a variety of formats. The ebook format is the least expensive way for readers to purchase my books. For myself, I prefer to read a printed bound book but have read several ebooks and just figure there are many out there who like to read but what to save money and are content to read what they have downloaded, either to a reading device or on their computer."

Klein adds, "Now Indie bookstore customers no longer have to choose between reading digital and supporting their local bookstore and it doesn't matter what ebook reader you have to read an ebook. ABA member stores with IndieCommerce websites are now selling Google eBooks online."

The list of ABA member stores with IndieCommerce websites is large and growing but to give an example, stores in New York now include: Greenlight Bookstore, Brooklyn, Lift Bridge Book Shop, Brockport, Mysteries On Main Street, Johnstown; Oblong Books & Music, Rhinebeck; Red Fox Books, Glens Falls; River Read Books, Binghamton; and WORD, Brooklyn.
