fantasy and science fiction book reviewsThe Signed Page is a service provided by Shawn Speakman of Suvudu. Speculative fiction authors stop in at The Signed Page to sign stacks of their books for fans. Sometimes they’ll write personalized messages, too. Readers can purchase these special first editions for reasonable prices. Shawn also takes photos of the authors signing their books. I enjoyed looking through these!

Jacqueline Carey told us about The Signed Page. She says, “Strictly speaking, The Signed Page in Seattle, Washington isn’t a bookstore, but owner and proprietor Shawn Speakman provides a great service in making signed copies of selected books available to fans who wouldn’t otherwise have the opportunity. I truly appreciate all his hard work!  Here’s a photo of me seated on a throne of signed copies of Naamah’s Blessing, along with fellow fantasy author Peter Orullian.”
