BALLISTIC is out today

Today is release day for BALLISTIC, the second novel in the Palladium Wars series.

You can obtain this fine product over at Amazon, where operators are standing by to take your money for the Kindle, trade paperback, hardcover, or audiobook versions. Heck, buy them all and complete the set!

For the BALLISTIC giveaway, I have decided to bump the number of books up from 5 to 10, and I will keep the contest going for the rest of the day. Leave your entry comment on the original post for the giveaway if you want to be included, but be aware that the cut-off time is midnight Pacific time, and I won’t include any entries submitted after that point. Tomorrow morning, I will let the computer draw ten names out of the hat and post the winners. (One entry per person, please…no stuffing the entry box.)

This marks my eighth published novel, and number nine is coming in December. For the rest of the day, I will now follow the time-honored tradition of Obsessively Refreshing The Product Page To Check Sales Rank…

BALLISTIC giveaway

 

BALLISTIC, the second novel in the Palladium Wars series, will be out in a little less than two weeks. I just got my author copies in, so I figured I’d do a little giveaway.

Leave a comment on this post if you’d like a signed trade paperback of BALLISTIC. I’ll leave the post open until release day, which is Tuesday, May 26. On May 26, I will let the computer pick five entries out of the hat, and I will send those five people a signed paperback. This giveaway is open to anyone in the world, and I’ll cover the shipping.

Don’t forget that Goodreads still has a giveaway for the Kindle version going on until May 25, so put your name in the hat over there if you’d rather have an electronic copy.

AFTERSHOCKS giveaway winners

Sorry for the delay, but I had to stay mostly offline this past weekend and yesterday because I was away on SECRET BUSINESS, so I didn’t get around to spinning up the old Random Numbers Generator and let Mr. Computer pick 10 entries out of the hat until this morning.

Here are the winners (with email addresses partially anonymized):

Dave Baker (SpXXXXX@sswidepot.com)
Sonja (sonjaXXXXXX@hotmail.com)
Stephanie Belser (sXXXXXXX@peoplepc.com)
JD (JdXXXXXXX@t-online.de)
Stray (shcXXXX@gmail.com)
Acidjunk (aciXXXXX@gmail.com)
Heather S (hsXXXX@vt.edu)
Guido (guido@XXXXrie.com)
mpeterke (mpXXXXXX@gmail.com)
William (williamdXXXXXX@gmail.com)

Congratulations! If you just found your name on the list, please send me an email to frontlines@markokloos.com and let me know where to send your free copy of AFTERSHOCKS. Please also tell me whether you want your copy signed, signed and personalized, or left blank.

Various AFTERSHOCKS items

The AFTERSHOCKS giveaway is now closed. Later today, I’ll pull ten numbers out of a hat and match them with their respective comments, and then I’ll post the winners here for all to see. (If you find yourself on the winning list, email me at frontlines@markokloos.com with a mailing address.)

Also, AFTERSHOCKS is one of the Amazon First Reads books on Amazon.co.uk this month. If you are a UK-based Prime member, you get to download AFTERSHOCKS for free all month, which means that you get to read it a few weeks before everyone else (it comes out in the US on July 1.)

US readers, I don’t have a way for you to get your hands on an early copy (other than the giveaway that just ended), but there are more news in the pipeline regarding the July launch, so stay tuned.

AFTERSHOCKS Paperback Giveaway

IMG 1591

I just got my author copies for AFTERSHOCKS, so let’s have ourselves a little giveaway! Everybody likes giveaways, right? They have layers. Like a parfait.

Anyway, I am going to give away TEN signed trade paperback copies of Aftershocks. Because the Goodreads giveaway is limited to US residents, and because I like my international fans, I will make this giveaway available to ANYONE IN THE WORLD. If you put your name into the hat and end up winning, I will ship the book to you regardless of your place of residence, as long as it’s a.) on this planet, and b.) somehow reachable by some sort of postal or package service. No personal hand-deliveries!

TO PARTICIPATE:

Leave a comment on this post stating that you would like a copy. I will keep comments open until 5pm EST on Friday, May 31. Then I will employ a random number generator to pick ten winners based on the number on their comment, and post the results the next day, June 1, with instructions for receiving your giveaway copy. I will cover all shipping regardless of destination.
