Win an Advance Reading Copy of R. A. Salvatore's THE DAME


My days of reading R. A. Salvatore may be behind me, but the author is as popular as ever. Hence, I'll be giving away my ARC of The Dame to one lucky winner! For more information about this title: Canada, USA, Europe.

Here's the blurb:

The vast road network of Honce, completed a decade before, had brought great optimism to the people of the land. Commerce could travel more freely and so could armies, and those armies, it was hoped, would rid the land at long last of the vicious, bloody cap dwarfs and goblins. For the first time, the many individual kingdoms, the holdings of Honce, would be brought closer together, perhaps even united. For the last few years, those promises had become a nightmare to the folk, as two powerful lairds fought for supremacy of a hoped-for united kingdom.

Bransen Garibond, the Highwayman, held little real interest in that fight. To him the warring lairds were two sides of the same coin. Whichever side won, the outcome for the people of Honce would be the same, Bransen believed. A journey north, however, taught Bransen that his views were simplistic at best, and that some things--like honor and true friendship-- might truly matter.

In The Dame, Bransen's road becomes a quest for the truth, of Honce and of himself, a quest to put right over wrong. That path is fraught with confusion and fraud, and a purposeful blurring of morality by those who would seek to use the Highwayman's extraordinary battle skills and popularity among the commonfolk for their own nefarious ends.

The rules are the same as usual. You need to send an email at reviews@(no-spam)gryphonwood.net with the header "THE DAME." Remember to remove the "no spam" thingy.

Second, your email must contain your full mailing address (that's snail mail!), otherwise your message will be deleted.

Lastly, multiple entries will disqualify whoever sends them. And please include your screen name and the message boards that you frequent using it, if you do hang out on a particular MB.

Good luck to all the participants!

I haven't read R.A. Salvatore in quite some time either (mostly 'cause I got a little bored of Drizzt), but I'm glad to see that he's branching out. I always enjoyed his writing style.... perhaps I'll give this one a try.
