Today marks the day when Everything Falls Apart. My first novel, Noise, is now on sale. Last week, David Pomerico and I gave away two signed copies in a pair of Twitter/Facebook contests. But, seeing how Suvudu is “home,” we saved one for the end—for Suvudu readers.
Is this the first you’ve heard of Noise? No problem. This is what Spectra has to say about it:
In the aftermath of the switch from analog to digital TV, an anarchic movement known as Salvage hijacks the unused airwaves. Mixed in with the static’s random noise are dire warnings of the imminent economic, political, and social collapse of civilization—and cold-blooded lessons on how to survive the fall and prosper in the harsh new order that will inevitably arise from the ashes of the old.
Hiram and Levi are two young men, former Scouts and veterans of countless Dungeons & Dragons campaigns. Now, on the blood-drenched battlefields of university campuses, shopping malls, and gated communities, they will find themselves taking on new identities and new moralities as they lead a ragtag band of hackers and misfits to an all-but-mythical place called Amaranth, where a fragile future waits to be born.
If that’s not enough for you, check out the teaser trailers, or head on over to Salvage Country for the full experience, including excerpts, recorded readings, and even more multimedia.
Sound like your kinda thing? Well, why not grab one for free? The rules are easy: if you want the book, simply reply to this post with your name. Feel free to say something witty while you’re at it. You’ve got to be 18 or older to win; the winner will be chosen randomly. The deadline to enter is 11:59 pm, ET, on Friday, September 3, 2010.

Good luck!

You live in Texas.
Assuming the book is being shipped *from* Texas, think of how much you’ll save on postage if you’re shipping to someone who lives in the same state.
Ohhh, sounds cool, and I’ve heard great things about it from Paul Jessup (which means even if I don’t win, I need to add this to my buying queue).
