Welcome

You have found the online home of Curt Collier, author of the international cult favorite Border Town Blood and its sequel Bloodlines.  

Throughout this website you will find links to various online retailers where you can buy e-books and physical copies of my books. But now, for the first time ever, you can buy my e-books directly from me and be reading them on the device of your choice in a matter of minutes. That’s right, for the ridiculously low price of 99¢ you can get each of my current books – Border Town Blood, Bloodlines & Threshold – in five different formats. Regardless of the device, I have an e-book format just right for you:    

  • Kindle/Mobi – for Amazon Kindle Users, MobiReader users and on any computer with  Kindle or MobiReader software installed
  • E-Pub – for I-Pad Users, Barnes & Noble Nook Users and on any computer with an E-Pub Reader installed (like the absolutely fabulous Firefox Plug-in EPubReader which I not only endorse but use every day!)
  • MHTML – a compact format readable by Microsoft’s Internet Explorer
  • WEB/HTML – readable in every known web browser including IE, Firefox, Opera, Google Chrome, Safari (yes, that means it’s uber-compatible with Apple computers and Apple OS!), Netscape’s Web Suite, Sea Monkey, and more
  • PDF – readable in Adobe Digital Editions, Adobe Acrobat Reader, all web browsers with the Adobe plug-in, and able to be printed and held in your hands if you prefer to read old school   

No, I’m not joshing you, putting you on, nor setting you up for a bait-and-switch. This is simply my way of getting enjoyable reading content into your hands and onto your reading device for as small a price as possible.   

And no, again, there are no restrictions as to how you use the e-book once you receive it – other than I ask you please honor the author’s copyright that is included in each format. Simply put, this means there is no copy or print restriction and absolutely no DRM (digital rights management). You may read these books on your PC, your Kindle, your Nook, your I-Pad, or on paper, as often as you like – even simultaneously.

When you buy a physical book at the bookstore, no one follows you home and tells you when and where you can read it, or whether you may loan it to a friend or even give it away once you have finished it. 

Why should digital products be any different? In my opinion, they shouldn’t. How many other authors or online retailers can say that and back it up with their product?

Not Amazon which only lets you read the book you bought on six devices with their proprietary software and will not let you print it.

Not Barnes & Noble which only lets you read the book you bought on a Nook.

Not I-Tunes or the Apple Store who are almost Draconian with their restrictions on both the reader/buyer and the author.

So buy an e-book from me, read (and re-read ad infinitum) the e-book, loan the e-book or even give it away to someone else who may enjoy it as much as you will. I only ask that you please honor the author’s copyright included in each format.  

However, that being said, if an Amazon Kindle, Barns & Noble Nook or Apple Ipad is your preferred device of choice, and you would prefer to buy your e-books through their official channels, you can find the links to purchase each individual e-book on the web pages of each of my books. Just click on the book title on the tabs at the top of this page and scroll to the bottom of each page for the appropriate link.

At this time I am only set up to sell e-books directly to you through the web. However, if you would like to order a physical book (with a personal inscription to you from me at no charge), please email me at curtcollier@live.com and you will receive payment information in an email reply within 24 hours.  

If you would like free samples of some of my stories, the tabs at the top of this page will take you several that can be read right here in your web browser. If you're reading this, you can read them with no additional software or system changes.   

Read and enjoy!
