5 Sept Update: CONGRATS to

* * * * *

So, hey, my fabulous UK publisher, Gollancz, has a few extra advance copies of Fire and Thorns (to be released 29 Sept), and they said I could give them away! Wooo!!

Just comment here to be entered to win. I will choose 5 (yes FIVE) winners at random on Monday, 5 Sept. Open to UK, New Zealand, and Australia readers.

Five chances to win…those are pretty good odds. Good luck!

8/23/11 UPDATE: The winner is Laura Pauling! Congrats, Laura!

I’m giving away some books! These are all books I’ve read and loved and recommend without reservation. Which means I’ll be buying actual, finished copies. Which means it’s time these ARCs did their job and got read and loved by other people.

To win, all you have to do is leave a comment here. No following anyone anywhere, no gimmicks. On August 22, I will use random.org to select a winner. Winner take all, open internationally. I’ll accept comments until midnight EST on Aug. 21.
