In order for any independent author to make it to the best-sellers list, he or she will need at least five professionally written reviews of the published book. And nothing is more pleasing to an author than he or she reading the published reviews of their readers.

Reviews also help a book’s ranking on Amazon.  
 

“Do you know that a succinct review of your book can boost your book-sales dramatically? In fact, that very review could be the reason you make it to the best-sellers’ list.”

If your book receives more than 20 positive reviews on Amazon, the book title would be automatically recommended to others browsing through the same category of titles your book belong to. And if the book receives more than 50 positive reviews, Amazon would list the title in its daily newsletter and recommend it to new readers who just completed a similar read.

Amazon has its own leaderboard of reviewers that receives credit for every book that they review, and you can view all of them from this link, https://www.amazon.com/review/top-reviewers. You may even write them directly and ask them to review your book via the email address that they provide you on their profile page.

The best way to have your book quickly review is to approach these reviewers via their email addresses and propose your book(s) to them for free in exchange for their honest review(s). It is important that you approach the right reviewer that would be interested in your book's genre, as others (who are not a fan of your genre) may consider your approach as an abuse.

We know how critical it is for authors to get their book reviewed, so we have stepped up to help our Indie Writers Support members with the quest. And with our compiled list of 1000s of reviewers, any one of our AUTHORS can receive up to 10 new reviews within the next month.

13 After Midnight

WITH AN INTRODUCTION TO THE SHORT STORY OF THE FANTASTIC

Nobel Prize for Literature nominee Jaime Martinez Tolentino presents 13 stories of the fantastic to read after midnight, and also sets out to explore the differences between the various kinds of such stories—the uncanny, the supernatural, the marvelous, the fantastic, magical realism, etc.

The stories contained in 13 AFTER MIDNIGHT all belong to what is, arguably, the most misunderstood literary genre, or modality: the Fantastic—and fantastic they are, in all sense of the word!

In his book, [Martínez Tolentino] toys with the ambiguities of what we commonly call reality. But, before allowing us to enter those bewildering worlds, he leads us through a vast antechamber in which, with the patience of a tour guide, he explains the world of the short story of the fantastic [...] That antechamber, takes the form of an Introduction to the Short Story of the Fantastic as a literary genre, and with that essay, Jaime has achieved one of the clearest and most systematic definitions of the short story of the fantastic that we have ever read.
—Professor Rafael Abréu Volmar, of the Inter-American University of Puerto Rico
