A Damned Good Deal
Okay, so you've heard me trumpeting the greatness of Jim Butcher for the past couple years in this space, and while I love his series The Dresden Files (also available as an alternate universe television show on DVD which aired on the Sci-Fi Channel), I'm even more impressed by his high fantasy series, The Codex Alera. The story is that Butcher took a bet from one of his pals that he couldn't write a fantasy series which involved Roman soldiers and Pokemon-style monsters, and not only did he succeed, he created the best fantasy series since... um, well, ever.
Now, y'all know that I love a good book, but I also love a great deal as well. The final book in the six novel series, First Lord's Fury, is going to be released on November 22nd. If you pre-order this book on Amazon.com, the usual twenty-five dollar or so price has been slashed to an unheard-of low, low price of exactly NINE FUCKING DOLLARS.
I repeat: nine fucking dollars. For a hardcover book that's probably going to be better than any other one you read this year. If you pass on this deal, do not pass Go and collect your two hundred dollars. Instead, receive a kick in the ass.
Now go get the first five novels, read those, pre-order the final one at a whopping discount, read the climax of the best damn fantasy series to ever come down the pike, and then, and only then, you may thank me.
Good stuff should always be shared. Now go and do likewise.
