We have just launched Odyssey Editions with The Wylie Agency and Amazon.
Below are the final covers for the Odyssey Editions titles. There will be more details of the other work we have done in the project in the coming days – please sign up for our newsletter or RSS feed to stay in touch.
Enhanced Editions’ The Death of Bunny Munro app was the first ever ebook submission for the D&AD design awards earlier this year, and it almost made it to the judging stage, but it wasn’t to be. To show there are no hard feelings, on Wednesday 26 May Enhanced Editions co-founder Peter Collingridge will be speaking at D&AD’s inaugural Sharp’ner event, which aims to bring publishers and designers together to “explore the future of books and book design alongside current and dream projects.” Peter will talk about the design decisions made during the early stages of development, the challenge of creating an invisible design, and the complex synergy that exists between design, user experience and reading. You can buy tickets from the D&AD online shop.
If you can’t make the Sharp’ner event, or you want to “try before you buy”, check out Peter’s keynote address from this year’s Tools of Change conference, and his “Fail Harder” pecha kucha from last year’s London Book Fair
You may have noticed that we’ve had a number of titles marked as “Coming Soon” on this site, one of which was David Eagleman’s wildly popular Sum: Tales from the Afterlives. This wonderfully complex little book is now available in the App Store, and we hope you’ll agree with us that it was well worth the wait. To make up for keeping you in suspense all this time, we’ve dropped the price from £9.99 to £4.99 for two weeks only! Read more →
To celebrate the runaway success of Philip Pullman’s new novel, The Good Man Jesus and the Scoundrel Christ, we are pleased to announce a limited-time offer for our app, where you buy the app and get the book free! Read more →
“As soon as men who believe they are doing God’s will get hold of power, whether it is in a household, or a village, or in Jerusalem or in Rome itself, the devil enters into them.”
Philip Pullman’s closing comments from the Oxford Literary Festival have received a lot of attention over the past few weeks, so we thought we’d share with you some of the video footage that didn’t quite make it into the app. Read more →
Update: Filmed by Mike Paterson for Canongate Books, we now have the video of Philip Pullman’s closing comments from his talk at the Oxford Literary Festival. Read more →
Brilliant 
"A fantastic way to really get into a book."
The Future?
"Awesome. Finally something substantial for the iPhone that's more than just a game or a gimmick. Worth the price."
Incredible App
"Such an enjoyable way to experience a novel, seamlessly blending text, audio and video. Substantial, highly polished and very well presented. Great value for money too."
Cave-at Emptor (not really, it's great!)
"The app has been lovingly produced with attention to detail apparent at every stage."
Fantastic
"A really brilliant and unique way of delivering a book by embracing and rejoicing in the technology, this is no adaption, this is the full on arm in arm partnership between author, publisher and app-builder."
Amazing
"This is how audiobooks should be on iTunes!"
diggin' it
"Really digging this book and the app is super slick - great typography, the tilt to scroll feature is awesome and the videos / soundtrack are nice little extras.."
