Who won the fantasy fiction giveaway?

11 Oct

My new fantasy novel, Second Sight, is causing quite a stir on Goodreads. I ran a giveaway for a free book during September and received 980 entrants! If you haven’t tried the Goodreads giveaways before, it’s worth checking them out: the freshest fiction, free, and all you have to do is to rate the books. Sharanya Soori from Canada was the lucky winner of a signed copy.

At the same time, Dave-Brendon hosted a giveaway in South Africa for a free signed set of the two books in the Tale of the Lifesong fantasy series. It’s great to meet such an proactive bookseller (Dave-Brendan runs the SFF section of the Exclusive Books store in Pretoria). If all booksellers were this enthusiastic about South African fantasy novels, we’d be able to redefine the fantasy genre in a few short years. The winner of the South African fantasy giveaway is: Sarah Bibi Setar!

I’d love to have everyone reading my books, but if I gave all of them away I wouldn’t be able to afford to write any more. So there are no more free copies available, but if you order books from my website I can offer you some special deals.

South African fantasy and scifi blog

05 Sep

Staggering into a dark side-alley to avoid the ravenous throng of screaming fans during my recent fantasy book tour, I came to a looming building, a great towering wall of grim concrete, upon which someone had defiantly painted a masterpiece of graffiti. It said ‘DaveBrendon’s Fantasy and SciFi weblog‘. Something squeaked under my boot. Strange smoke swirled around me. I rubbed the motes from my eyes. Was I at the right address? They said I’d be safe here. I reached down, grabbed the mouse and threw it against the wall twice. A new window opened above the street. And the light that spilled out was glorious. Sprites danced in down a lamppost and whispered about my head. And inside the window, I could see … oh, I could see … oh, look for yourself:

I left a full set of The Tale of the Lifesong books at Dave-Brendon’s pozzie so if you’re South African you get a chance to be epic and win a personalised signed set. Check out the new fantasy book giveaway.

The Riddler’s Gift review winners announced!

09 Jul

Did you win a free copy of the new fantasy novel, Second Sight? Only 22 days to go! Thanks to all the readers of The Riddler’s Gift who sent in their short reviews as part of the Readers’ Review Competition. Their names were collected in Twardy Zarost’s hat. I held a random draw today. It didn’t matter what you wrote: if you responded, you had a chance! My assistant was there to judge the fairness of the draw. He may be small, but he is tough and he has a sharp eye. He even caught a cheater.

Watch the draw and find out if you won one of five free copies of Second Sight. There’s also a hint for another way to win a free copy … but hurry, that givewaway only has 2 weeks to run!
