*has been considering getting herself to write book reviews*

I'd be interested in either one (or both..) of the books you have, doesn't matter which one :) (unless others would really like them ^_^)

*forces self to promise a review* This will be good for me. *firm-nod*



*also scampers over to check out Kat's give-away* :D

Do these need an e-book reader? Or do they just come in PDF Format? :)

I can get them in PDF, but I have a little conundrum here since I only have two to give away. Idril didn't necessarily say what book, but still expressed interest. How about who is interested in what and will you honestly read it?

Either is fine for me...but if Lady Vilisse and Lady Katharina will get them, go ahead and give it to them first. I'm still juggling around my schedule...so I might not be able to read immediately. :P Thanks!

Okay, thanks Idril. Vilisse will get Realities Dawn by R.L. Copple, but what format would you like? Kindle PC is a nice reader because it saves your place. I'm not sure that PDF does that, and I could get you a .mobi file that works on the Kindle PC program, but which can also be converted to PDF or epub later using a free program called calibre.

Oh, and I almost forgot. Grace Bridges of Splashdown Books does offer to give ebook copies of any of their books for free in exchange for reviews. So, Idril, when your schedule is better you can still get either of these, or pick from the catalog if you could also write a review.

Are all the books given away yet? I was going to move this to GD, but if it's done, I'll just archive it.

Actually, The Crystal Portal by Travis Perry and Michael Lynch is now also available.

Here's the blurb for that
Quote:
In the bowels of the city of Balal stands an archway, a portal that opens doorways to other times and places. Lehkahn the elf pursues his nemesis, Sargon Balal, through this gateway and finds himself in the strange world of a future Earth, New Los Angeles. There he meets the robot 9.06, who in spite of his better judgment joins him in the pursuit of their common foe.

Yeshua the carpenter sends Zachariah, a boy from first-century Nazareth, to join the elf in his quest.

Drawn into a world of crystal, where life itself exists in crystalline form, the three unlikely heroes are aided by Agata, crystal princess and heir to the throne of the Sapphire Monarchy. The future of the crystal kingdom at stake, their struggle against Sargon’s wicked genius will bring suffering almost too great for them to bear.

And the portal still stands, linking other words yet unknown…
