Giveaway! "The Winds of Dune" by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson ->->5 String Backpacks & Two Autographed Copies of the Book!<-<-

Thanks to Tor Books I have a unique giveaway to offer as part of their promotion of the new book in the "Dune" universe, The Winds of Dune. Not only do I have TWO signed copies of "The Winds of Dune" by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson, but I also have FIVE string backpacks to pass on to some lucky winners. So the breakdown is--TWO grand prize winners will get autographed copies of "The Winds of Dune" and a string backpack, and THREE winners will receive only the backpacks. Book Description With their usual skill, Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson have taken ideas left behind by Frank Herbert and filled them with living characters and a true sense of wonder. Where Paul of Dune picked up the saga directly after the events of Dune, The Winds of Dune begins after the events of Dune Messiah. Paul has walked off into the sand, blind, and is presumed dead. Jessica and Gurney are on Caladan; Alia is trying to hold the Imperial government together with Duncan; Mohiam dead at the hands of Stilgar; Irulan imprisoned. Paul’s former friend, Bronso of Ix, now seems to be leading opposition to the House of Atreides. Herbert and Anderson’s newest book in this landmark series will concentrate on these characters as well the growing battle between Jessica, and her daughter, Alia. If you'd like a chance to win a backpack and a signed copy of "The Winds of Dune" just enter the form below (all information will ONLY be used for the purposes of this contest and will be discarded immediately after) and I will randomly pick five winners by Thursday August 20th. The first and second place winners will receive both the string backpack and autographed copies of "The Winds of Dune." The third, fourth and fifth place winners will receive a string backpack. Multiple entries will be disqualified. Contest is open in the U.S. and Canada only. Good luck! **Contest Closed**

It appears that the form won't accept an entry from me because it doesn't think that my email address is a valid one. From what I can gather, any email address that has a number it doesn't think is valid.

Bradley-- just email me with your info and I'll add it to the entries. I'll see if I can fix the problem.

Sometimes, I'm bummed that I live in Europe, when I see these contests.

Great..another freakin' DUNE book. I tolerated Children of Dune and the third book..but after that I was embarassed for Herbert. And now? Now we are treated to his son feeding on his father's corpse. Someone needs to tell him Daddy's gone and to find his own creative streak.
