Huh, wouldja look at that? There’s a giveaway for Under the Empyrean Sky over yonder hills at Goodreads. The trick is, it seems to be ending tomorrow (8/21), so, hop on it.
The book seems to be reaching lots of eyeballs and I’m getting quite a few emails from people who seem really hungry for the second book — which has to be a good sign, right? If you’re up for an adventuresome YA agripocalyptic dustbowl dystopia with bloodthirsty GMO corn and rich people who float in the sky and shuck rats and scavenger crews and a growing hobo menace (plus: LOVE QUADRANGLE), hey, dang, this book might be right up your alley, so check it out?
And if you have read it and dug it — or any of my books, or any book by any author! — then I’d sure appreciate you leaving a review somewhere. Your word of mouth matters. Thanks!

You are quite unlikely to find it at B&N unless you order it. It’s pubbed by Skyscape, which is owned now by Amazon, which means B&N will not willingly carry it. They will order it if you ask.

Curses! I’m in the wrong country. This probably explains why I couldn’t see it in the giveaway list.

Ha! I won one! And I never win anything!
So, since I already bought it (and read it, and loved it, and recommend it highly) I will give it away.
How to get it: If Chuck returns safely from Oz without being eaten by a wombat, he will be visiting our library on September 21 at 3 p.m. Details: http://libwww.freelibrary.org/calendar/calbydate.cfm?ID=40508&loc=NWR . I am the librarian who will be hosting the program.
Come hear Chuck talk about his books, and writing, and whatever else he feels like, and one lucky person will win the book. Chuck will probably sign it for you, too. (Right, Chuck?)
