Exclusive Epilogue for Barnes & Noble

July 13, 2013 by Ally Carter 46 Comments

Hi, everybody!

Exciting announcement today:

I am thrilled to finally be able to share that we have partnered with Barnes & Noble to offer SPECIAL, EXCLUSIVE CONTENT for their hardcover copies of United We Spy.

UnitedWeSpy-cvr

This is a special epilogue that I wrote exclusively for the B&N hardcovers. It will not be in the (Nook) eBooks. It will not be available from other retailers.

Now I know a lot of you probably have pre-ordered the book already or have another store where you like to shop. And that is totally, 100% awesome.

You have my absolute promise that United We Spy will make sense without this special epilogue. The book is complete, and I don’t have some “real” ending that you have to buy the special edition to get. Trust me when I say that the book is the book and it stands 100% alone.

But…if you want a short peek of some extra stuff that happens after the final chapter of United We Spy, then Barnes & Noble will have that available for you.

And you can pre-order your copy now.

Also, remember, you can join the GG6 countdown by grabbing the code for the official GG6 Countdown Widget right here.

Have a great night, everybody (and please help me spread the word about these two exciting developments!)

-Ally

PS: and good news for international readers! In the UK, Waterstones will be offering the same special content.

We have made this content available to all of my international publishers. If and when I hear of any of them utilizing it (making it available) I will let you know.

PPS: More good news! The epilogue will also be available in AUSTRALIA! Copies of the books should come with a QR code that will lead you to the bonus materials online. Stay tuned for details!

OCTOBER UPDATE!
Hi everyone! Ally here saying that the book is out (thank you to everyone who ordered it in whatever form it might have come in.)

As for those of you who bought the exclusive Barnes and Noble edition, I wanted to clarify that the special epilogue is the small story found in the back of your book–the one called A GALLAGHER WEDDING.

A Gallagher Wedding is currently only available in the back of the BN hardcovers (in the United States). Will it ever be posted online or sold anywhere else? I’m not sure. But in the meantime I hope you have all enjoyed the book.

    Ally,
    Hopefully I will be able to come see you on tour, I was going to buy hard copy when I came to see you but I might just bring my B&N copy and hopefully wherever you are signing autographs allows me to bring in my own copy without having to buy a copy from them. Thank you so much for this opportunity!
    Counting the days,
    Meagan

    Hey, Ally,

    I have something to tell you. I kind of already read “United We Spy.” And, you know, that when you go on Google.com, and go on images and look up “Gallagher Academy” or “Gallagher Girls,” it will shows A LOT of images (you have A LOT). And when I look up “United We Spy,” it shows up “A Gallagher Wedding.” And I thought that it was just some of your fans doing some computer things to some photo and putting it together, but when I read THIS, I was like–“What?!? There is another part of ‘United We Spy’?!? Dang it!!” I mean, I LOVE the Gallagher Girls series and I love that you wrote an epilogue for “United We Spy” and all, but…I’ve read the Gallagher Girls series about four times and I’m rereading it. Again…my sister and my parents don’t want me to read this series ever again. But I still am!!

    And if I ask them “Hey, Mom and Dad, can yoy drive me to Barnes & Noble?”

    They’ll be like “What book are you gonna get?” And I’ll have to tell them what book I’m getting, and then they’ll be like “No, we are not going to Barnes & Noble.”

    And I’ll be like “But it’s just the epilogue!!”

    And they’ll still say no!! Which is so unfair!!

    So please, is there any way that the books that have the epilogue can make it to libraries?

    Thank you!!

    Hoping so,
    Cameron
