To celebrate Ascension Day 2025, we present the spiffy paperback of THE GANGSTER. This dead tree beastie joins the first five novels to provide a storytelling buffet for the eyes and glam up your bookshelf.
ONLY AT AMAZON... FOR NOW
Our roll-out process means that, for now, you can only get THE GANGSTER at Amazon. Don't want to buy from them? We get it. In a few months you'll have the option of ordering from your local bookstore or directly from us. We'll let you know.
WHAT IS SIGLER ASCENSION DAY?
It was April 1, 2007 when Sigler Junkies like you bum-rushed the Amazon charts with the original ANCESTOR paperback. Just a little 'ol indie book from an incredibly small publisher. With no advertising, no marketing, and no coverage from the media, ANCESTOR hit #1 on both Amazon's Horror and SciFi charts. It was the #2 print book on the planet behind only HARRY POTTER & THE DEATHLY HALLOWS.
It's important to note that in 2007 there were no eBooks on the Amazon store — ANCESTOR was a paperback up against all the other print books in the world.
If the New York Times had charted Amazon books at the time (they didn't), I estimate ANCESTOR would have been a Top-10 fiction paperback.
The buying frenzy brought the original EARTHCORE paperback along for the ride. Nice, brah... nice.
This mad success landed me a print deal with Random House. And guess what happened on April 1, 2008? INFECTED hit bookstores.
Therefore, I bequeath and forthwith heretofore declarethed that April 1 would then and forever forward be "Sigler Ascension Day."
