There were 13 US/Canada and 13 International contests during December’s Black Friday event and I so can’t list them all at once. For one, it is going to take me a bit to figure out all the winners. For another, that would make for a really long post. So I’ll be doing them in four sections and this section section will be the first half of the International contests. The US/Canada winners were announced here and here. However, the time has past for those winners to contact me and I’ll be drawing new names on Monday.
My apologies for the delay in announcing the international winners
However, before I get to that, I made a slight error. I had three copies of Meljean Brook’s Heart of Steel to give away and I only announced one winner. So here are the other two:
Heart of Steel by Meljean Brook
Meljean Brook was unable to celebrate Black Friday with us, but in her place, she sent along a fabulous copy of Heart of Steel. In order to enter, all anyone had to do was answer: What kind of steampunk treasures would you like to find during your holiday shopping? Now, without further ado, the winner is:
TERI C who said: Santa, Bring me those Goliath and Scott Westerfeld inspired steampunk goggles. All big and chunky like that, and the series on audio.
VAN P who said: I would love a nice coat or necklaces.
Congratulations Teri C and Van P!
Now, let’s get on with the International contests.
Marjorie Liu
Marjorie Liu gave us the fabulous story involving Eddi and Lyssa on Literary Escapism for our Black Friday celebration. While she was here, we gave away three copies of Within in the Flames. In order to enter, all anyone had to do was answer: What would be on your shopping list to get a fire starter and/or a dragon shifter? Now, without further ado, the winner is:
KAYA H who said: A fire extinguisher for the bedroom!
STEPHANIE K who said: I would give a firestarter or dragon shifter and trip to a secluded island, where they could relax and take nice swim.
I loved the excerpt and I’m looking forward to reading Within in the Flames, it sounds fantastic.
KIMS who said: Anything that is fire resistant. I would hate to buy something and it goes up in flames. Maybe an aloe plant for occasional burns too.
Congratulations Kaya H, Stephanie K and KimS!
Theresa Meyers
Theresa Meyers gave us the fabulous story involving Rook and Cate on Literary Escapism for our Black Friday celebration. While she was here, we gave away a copy of Shadowlander. In order to enter, all anyone had to do was answer: While you’re out shopping, you’re ask to purchase a gift for a Fae king – what would you get? Now, without further ado, the winner is:
