THE BURNING WHITE: Orbit Loot Giveaway, Amazon Book of the Month

Happy October, fellow Chromeriacs!

It’s officially Halloween season, and we’re officially THREE WEEKS away from THE BURNING WHITE’s Book Birthday!

The cover image to The Burning White by Brent Weeks

We have so much awesome stuff to share with you this month, and I’m so excited I can barely typegebbarghifayatholshawarmasceneofthartsegeinsen!

Ahem.

The first announcement on this first day of a month packed full of pumpkins, pre-orders, prestidigitation, paryl, parties, protuberances, and bawling into your popcorn is that Amazon has selected THE BURNING WHITE as one of the Best SFF Books of the Month. Gavin and Co are in good company on this list. Check it out, and make sure you pre-order your copy of the book, if you haven’t already. (That’s an affiliate link, FTR.)

Secondly, Orbit is hosting a Lightbringer Loot Giveaway.

 

 

Enter for a chance to win an exclusive hardcover boxed set of the complete Lightbringer series, plus a letter from the Man himself! All you have to do is share your email address with Orbit, then sit back and wait for a month.*

Happy Tuesday!

Dread Pirate CAPSLOCK

 

*Deadline to enter is Oct 31. We encourage you to wait patiently to hear who wins, because sitting on the edge of your seat with all your fingers and toes crossed sounds stressful. Also,  your butt would go numb eventually. Also, that can’t be good for your back. Also, you can’t eat Halloween candy with crossed fingers.

The 10th Anniversary Night Angel Hardcover Omnibus

INT. OFFICE – DAY

DPC: Hey, Jefe?

JEFE: (typing intently, not looking away from computer screen) Yeah.

DPC: The omnibus.

JEFE: What about it?

DPC: (beat) It comes out tomorrow.

JEFE: (blinks at DPC, because this is terribly obvious) I know that, CAPS.

DPC: Ten years!

JEFE: Yep.

DPC: (imitating Jeremy Piven in Grosse Pointe Blank) TEN YEARS! TEN!

JEFE: Uh-huh.

(DPC slumps at her desk, scrolls through BRENT WEEKS website)

DPC: We’ve been talking about it a LOT. Like, A LOT A LOT. For months.

JEFE: Your profundity knows no bounds, CAPSLOCK.

DPC: So, um, I just realized something.

(JEFE stops typing and sighs.)

DPC: Like two weeks ago I scheduled a post to go live, thinking we would say, you know, OMG THE NAT OMNI IS HERE Y’ALL IT’S RAINING CONFETTI IN THE STREETS AAAHHHH (CAPSLOCK shakes her head and waggles her arms in a pitiful imitation of Kermit the Frog).

JEFE: I mean, that’s one way to go.

DPC: And then we opened the webstore.

JEFE: I remember… Listen, are you going somewhere with this? Because I have characters to kill off, here.  (gestures to his computer screen)

DPC: I got really busy, Jefe.

(JEFE raises an eyebrow and stares at CAPSLOCK for a moment.)

DPC: Soooooo busy.

JEFE: There’s no post, is there?

DPC: There’s a post! There’s TOTALLY a post! (beat) There’s just… no words in the post.

JEFE: Just write the post, CAPS. (JEFE mutters something about why he pays for an assistant)

[scene]
