Giveaway – The Warlock’s Shadow (7/1/2013)
Yay! New Year! It’s been an interesting few days. Two proposals sent to agent last Friday (proper news if they ever come to anything), my publisher is doing three tie-in novels for Elite: Dangerous and Ezio is now about a quarter of the way through kicking the Borgias out of Rome. Yesterday I was writing about turning Europa into a single vast detector for tau-neutrinos, today some dodgy ex-soldiers are about to raid a Brixton nightclub and tomorrow someone gets blown up by a bomb meant for someone else. Back to dragons next week though. Speaking of dragons. . .
I have another copy going begging. And it doesn’t have any dragons in it but it does mention something about that that might just come back again in Dragon Queen. Usual deal – comment on this post before January 12th and I’ll randomly select a lucky victim for a free copy of the book. I liked the new year resolutions suggestions from last week so feel free to make some more, though I’ll not make it a pre-requisite this week. Since it’s one of mine, I’ll sign and line it of you like.
Although, though no one has yet complained about how long it takes me to get to the post office and post things, it can take a while and if you live abroad then it can take even longer. Sorry about that, but they do get there eventually. Well, so far.

Ooh, me wants it! I have yet to read anything by you.
I see it is the second in a series though… Oh well, I would just have to buy the first one in the rare chance that I should win it.
Happy writing!
Cheers from Hypervorean

Ooh…pretty, I will forgive the lack of a dragon on the cover just this once.
Keep up the good work.

New year… New comment… Generally pointless other than that… Just like my first week back at work… Jan blues…. Maybe this book will help… Winning makes me smile.

Free stuff! Yay! My library has a copy but if I win this, I need never return it.

I have a rule this year of not buying any new books – so I can try to work through my to-read pile. Thankfully I remembered to write in the one exception – if I have a book partway through a series, and therefore, need to buy those before it in order to read it!
No libraries in my state (well, Territory) have it I’m going to send an email with a list of books they need to get – this (and the first!) being on it. As well as a replacement copy of the first in the Wheel of Time series, dammit.
Apologies for the ramble. My hand has a burn from cooking halloumi cheese and bacon, and one of the two decided to attack me. Pain makes me ramble.

Just awesome!
One second I’m rumbling through some sf book reviews and the next I happen to have the chance to get a book from its creator…

Okay so this is a little bit cheeky considering you said before Jan 12th…but I thought I might try my luck
Anything to do with fantasy or dragons and I’m there, just wish I had seen this sooner!
