Black Womb, the original novel from Matthew LeDrew, has gained #1 Bestseller status on Amazon, in both the 'Superhero' and 'Coming of Age' Fantasy categories. The novel peaked at #86 on the Amazon.ca Free Kindle Store ranks. Engen Books would like to congratulate LeDrew on this achievement.
The novel peaked on September 24 2017, less than two weeks after Engen Books' collection of Linda Blagdon's poetry became the #1 Bestselling Canadian Poetry book, attracting the attention of both local and national media.
"I think it's pretty much a given that I should thank all the fans that I've gained over the last ten years. We work very hard to bring them material they find fresh and interesting in genre redefining ways, and I can't think of a better way to celebrate our 10th anniversary beginning to wind down than by our original release reaching #1."
Matthew holds an Honours Degree in English from the Memorial University of Newfoundland with a minor in Anthropology and studied Journalism at College of the North Atlantic in Stephenville, Newfoundland. He has worked with Transcontinental Publishing as well as student-youth magazine The Troubadour.
He has written sixteen novels for Engen Books, Black Womb, Transformations in Pain, Smoke and Mirrors, Roulette, Ghosts of the Past, Ignorance is Bliss, Becoming, Inner Child, Gang War, Chains, The Long Road, Cinders, Sinister Intent, Infinity, The Tourniquet Reprisal and Exodus of Angels.
