Xevicom.com – home of bestselling science fiction author Ray Reid – Allows Customers to Pay Whatever Price They Want for its Graphic Novels
Xevicom.com and bestselling science fiction author Ray Reid have today announced that they will allow visitors to pick their own price for all digital titles sold on the website for the next month. This incredible offer will allow visitors to purchase Reid’s cult graphic novel, Xevicom Forever, for any value above $0.01. Although the digital edition comes with a guide price of $6.95, Xevicom.com will happily accept any value its customers wish to play. For comic book fans across the world there has never been a better time to discover Ray Reid’s dystopian world of the future.
“I’ve always wanted to share Xevicom Forever with as many people as I can,” Reid enthused, “and now I finally have that opportunity. I trust the comic book community to pay whatever they think is a fair value and I am happy to accept any amount for my work. I hate the idea that people are forced to pirate material they cannot necessarily afford and it is my hope that this little promotion will give a new wave of readers a chance to engage with my work.” When asked to comment upon his motivation the usually reclusive author replied, “Pieces of art shouldn’t be horded by their creators. It’s our duty to share our vision with as many people as we can. It is also our duty not to exploit people whenever we can. We all need to make a living, sure, but I think it’s time we started to trust our audiences.”
Xevicom Forever was originally conceived by Reid back in 2004 before entering a torrid period of development that almost saw the title never released. As this ambitious title languished in development hell Reid wrote a pair of cult science fiction and fantasy novels that drew an audience of thousands to his work. Xevicom Forever finally saw a limited digital release in 2007 however Reid, displeased with the compromised final product, reworked the script whilst his artists retooled their work to create the definitive version of this graphic novel which is now being offered for sale on xevicom.com. In addition to allowing readers to choose their price for Xevicom Forever Reid is also allowing visitors to the website to listen to his science fiction audio book, Cell, free of charge. In the coming weeks Reid also plans to offer his second novel, the epic fantasy book “The Half Broken Crown” to readers on similar terms. Reid is also writing a weekly blog that will hosted on xevicom.com for the foreseeable future.
