Frequently asked questions

When is the next Book Blast?

The 2026 Book Blast was July 1. We’ll announce the next date here and to everyone on our list, so sign up to stay in the know.

Are the books still free?

They were free for the sale. Now each author sets their own price, so visit each author’s page for the book’s link and today’s price.

How do you choose which books are featured?

Our generous authors each selected one book, and each selection was subject to a minimum review and rating standard, so the books in the sale are the best of the best!

How can I support the participating authors?

So glad you asked! Every author has a page with their bio and links, so you can find their other books. Many of the featured books are also available in audio or paperback.

What types of books are featured?

A variety of the very best of JAFF: classic “canon-style” stories, modern adaptations, fantasies, and even works inspired by Austen’s other novels. Browse by category to find your favorites.

I’m an author. How can I take part?
