Win a copy of FORT FREAK edited by George R. R. Martin


I have three copies of the newest Wild Cards novel, Fort Freak, edited by George R. R. Martin up for grabs, courtesy of the nice folks at Tor Books. For more info about this title: Canada, USA, Europe.

Here's the blurb:

In 1946, an alien virus that rewrites human DNA was accidentally unleashed in the skies over New York City. It killed ninety percent of those it infected. Nine percent survived, mutated into tragically deformed creatures. And one percent gained superpowers. The Wild Cards shared-universe series, created and edited by New York Times #1 bestseller George R. R. Martin (called “the American Tolkien” by Time), is the tale of the history of the world since then—and of the heroes among the one percent.

Now, in the latest Wild Cards mosaic novel, we get to know the hardbitten world of Manhattan’s Fifth Precinct—or “Fort Freak,” as cops and malefactors alike call the cop-shop where every other desk sergeant, detective, and patrol officer is more than human.

Featuring original work by writers such as Cherie Priest, author of the bestselling Boneshaker; Paul Cornell, Hugo–nominated comic book and Doctor Who writer; David Anthony Durham, winner of 2009’s John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer; and many others, Fort Freak is one of the strongest offerings yet in the ongoing Wild Cards project.


The rules are the same as usual. You need to send an email at reviews@(no-spam)gryphonwood.net with the header "FREAK." 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!

This sounds awesome. I don't frequent many message boards, so I guess I won't enter, but thanks for putting the anthology on my radar.

Matthew, you don't have to frequent a message board to enter. Go ahead and enter!

(On second thought, forget I said anything; I don't need more competition.) ;)
