Demon Blood ARCs
It’s that time again! I have four ARCs of DEMON BLOOD to give away on this site. No hoops to jump through — you just have to comment before midnight on April 24th to enter. But! there is a small catch.
These are advance review copies, and I’d really love it if they were used as such. So if you win one, please review it somewhere by the week of July 6th: on your blog, on an online bookseller’s site, Goodreads or Library Thing, wherever. I’m not asking for positive reviews, or even detailed reviews — just reviews. If you don’t think you can read it by July, please pass on these advance copies; I intend to give away several final copies when the book is released, so you can try again, then.
About the ARCs: these are the yellow-covered bound copies, and are copy-edited (by Berkley, but the version in these ARCs doesn’t have my copy-edits entered yet.) That means that there are more errors than in a final version, and that some dialogue, sentences, and descriptions are different than will be in the final version. There are no substantial differences in plot, characters, or any of the scenes, but a few passages have been altered and some small references changed or clarified. More pronouns have been clarified. If you have any questions while reading, I’ll be more than happy to answer and/or send you the corrected passage, if applicable.
For new readers to the Guardian series: Everything you need to know is included in the first three chapters. Seriously, it’s the longest prologue, ever. You won’t have the same emotional connection to some of the recurring characters, but you (hopefully) won’t be lost, so feel free to give DEMON BLOOD a try.
Sorry, a cover flat isn’t included, because that’s the only one I have. I just put it in the picture because it’s pretty. You will get bookmarks, though.
So, the rules: Comment by midnight PST on 4/24/2010 for your chance to win. Four winners will be selected randomly using random.org, and their names posted on this blog 4/25/2010. Only one entry per ISP address. The contest is open to international readers. No purchase necessary to enter, but a good faith effort to review the book by the release date is deeply appreciated. Odds of winning depend on number of entries received. Void where prohibited.
Eeeee! I would cuddle it and love it and I swear it wouldn’t be creepy at all.
(It would. A little. But I wouldn’t tell you about it.)
Count me in!

(Saw this in a retweet from Moira Rogers- in case you keep up with how people here about you.)
I just bought the first book in the series and I am PSYCHED to read it, so I’d have to say that I’d definitely be psyched to read this one as well. I have no problem reading and reviewing (on my site, GoodReads, Amazon… I try to post all my reviews in all these places) on or before July. I have about a month between semesters, and I have every intention of doing nothing but reading the entire time.
I would love to review this book for my blog!

I’m always on the lookout for new authors to read and I’ve already got a large pile around my house that says so. LOL And I will get through them all sooner or later.

Would love the chance to add a new author to my collection of favorites. I absolutely love Nalini Singh and she has recommended your books on her FaceBook page and I would love the chance to read one of your ARCs.
I’ll keep my fingers and toes crossed that I’m due for a little good luck. And I’m sure I’ll have time to read and review.
And if any winners change their mind… *waves hand* Me, Me, pick me!

I would *love* to get my hands on one of those ARCs! I recently reread and reviewed the whole series on AmazonUK and it left me pining for Demon Blood. My own problem with winning would be holding off the reviews until closer to the release date

I have not read any of the Guardian series so the fact that there is a comprehensive prologue is appealing to me.
I have never done a review but I would attempt it.
