Preorder for events
Let's make sure your must-reads make it home with you!
The authors featured here are known to sell out at events, sometimes within the very first hour. Preordering is the best way to guarantee you'll get the books you came for.
Why preorder
We know many readers purchase event tickets specifically to meet their favorite authors, and there's nothing more disappointing for either of us than arriving at a signing only to discover the books you wanted are already gone.
The challenge? Authors aren't psychic (unfortunately!) Attendance and demand are never guaranteed, making it difficult to predict how many books to bring. Travel restrictions can also limit how much inventory an author can reasonably transport.
Preordering takes the guesswork out of it for everyone. You'll have peace of mind knowing your books are reserved, and your authors can plan ahead to make sure your favorites are waiting for you.
Secure your books before the event, so you can focus on the fun when you get there!
No preorders are open right now. Check back when the next event is confirmed.
Purchase directly from the author
All authors, convention operations managers and cosplay handlers listed here are independent participants. Preorders, payments, shipping, pick-up and appearances are arranged directly between you and that individual. The Author Community Collective is a listing and discovery platform only: we are not a seller, reseller, payment processor, agent or insurer, and we are not responsible or liable for orders that are not delivered, preorders that are not fulfilled, or events and appearances that change or are cancelled. Please contact the author directly for any resolution, refund or dispute.
