@cepmurphy.bsky.socialReposted by @nefariousbatpress.bsky.socialThe Exodontists are here and you can totally trust them not to rip your teeth out, would they lie to you...??
@nefariousbatpress.bsky.socialBut don't take our word for it! Here's what @bitterkarella.bsky.social has to say about it...
@nefariousbatpress.bsky.socialTHE EXODONTISTS ARE HERE!

In need of a monstrous, dark, wonderfully weird Halloween read?

@nefariousbatpress.bsky.socialWe got the email through very late Friday night, UK time. It's now Monday night, and - despite emailing and messaging them repeatedly via their bloody bot - we've heard nothing back Would absolutely not recommend readers use them after this experience

@tcparker.bsky.socialReposted by @nefariousbatpress.bsky.socialLast day of this sale - 8 hours to go! ⬇️
@nefariousbatpress.bsky.socialUnfortunately our provider doesn't let us do digital preorders! But it'll be available there for purchase first time tomorrow if that helps!
@nefariousbatpress.bsky.socialThey've been spectacularly uncommunicative - literally all we've got from them is this email... (And a "Rejected" label on the title when we log in...)

@nefariousbatpress.bsky.socialWe're very, very happy to support Queer The Shelves Infinite - a new initiative helping readers connect with queer books, free from "AI" and tech oligarchy interference! Check out their Kickstarter and see for yourself why they're our cup of tea!
@tcparker.bsky.socialReposted by @nefariousbatpress.bsky.socialFeast on these half-price, DRM- and-oligarch-free books!
@pointofimpactbooks.bsky.socialReposted by @nefariousbatpress.bsky.socialI'm not a big horror reader (typically two titles per year), but I love what Nefarious Bat puts out and there's been some nasty crap pulled at them from Kobo of late that breaks my heart as a reader and as a micro publisher. So please, take a peek at their store. They've got wonders in there.
@nefariousbatpress.bsky.socialThank you!
@nefariousbatpress.bsky.socialThank you!!
@nefariousbatpress.bsky.socialWe didn't want to mention the title until we'd checked with @drewhuff.bsky.social... but Kobo have blocked the sale of THE EXODONTISTS on their platforms, 4 days before it releases Tuesday
Help us give it the launch it deserves?

@tcparker.bsky.socialReposted by @nefariousbatpress.bsky.socialApropos the day we're having... Read queer indie books. Read queer horror. Read everything a tech oligarch's proprietary algorithm would deem likely to offend white cishet conservatives.
