Rocket Bomber - article - found - manga - Found: Yaoi Gold

I hesitate scant seconds to post the following because I’m not sure how search engines will treat me (“be gentle, I haven’t done this before” ) and sure, I like Antique Bakery as much as the next guy (well, more than the guy to my right, who never got over Ono as a character concept, but less than the guy to my left who has six different types of doujinshi derived from this title saved to his hard drive) (& when is Antique Bakery coming out on DVD, btw? somebody needs to license that quick; the manga has long been a critics’ fav and I found the fansubs to be excellent — though the ending just kinda, well, ended.

The Yaoi Gold Bundle

as described on sales sites: “Four yaoi graphic novels bundled together for a savings of $16.81 off retail! The Aluria Chronicles – Yaoi vampire fantasy. Desire of the Gods – Romance between Norse Gods. Spirit Marked – An innocent is seduced by evil. Prisoner of the Immortal – Demon Yaoi.” The authors are cited as the Insanity Team [nice] (Yamila Abraham, Colter Hillman, Calissa Leigh, Yishan Li, & others?) and the bundle (a reported 648 pages) lists at $35 but can be found for less; sale prices in the wild have been spotted as low as 23 bucks and change. Considering that most yaoi titles I recall seeing retail in the $13-17 range, less than six bucks per is an excellent way to introduce yourself to the publisher and four new titles.

Any comments, Yamila? Is the same bundle also going to be available direct from Yaoi Press?
