Contest for Tim Akers' Jacob Burn Cycle


To celebrate the recent release of Tim Akers' Dead of Veridon I have one set of both Jacob Burn books from Solaris including Heart of Veridon to giveaway and a single copy of Dead of Veridon as well. So you've got two chances to get in on the Steampunk Noir-tasticness that is Tim Akers crazy mind. Be sure to check out my thoughts on Heart of Veridon to see why this is a series worth checking out.  Here is the blurb for Dead of Veridon, but you might want to skip if you haven't read HoV:
Trouble finds Jacob Burn. Kicked out of his house, out of his comfortable life, out of everything that is familiar, even turned away from his circle of criminal friends and interesting enemies. Two years after he saved an ungrateful city from a mad angel, thwarting the plans of every powerful faction in Veridon, Jacob is still trying to pull his life together. And still trouble finds him.

A bad job goes worse, and soon old enemies present themselves as allies, and former friends set themselves against Jacob as he tries to put the dead to rest and the living to justice. Everything gets more difficult when he’s appointed by the Council to investigate the rise of the cog-dead, while some hold him personally accountable, and others in the city work to use the chaos to their advantage.
To enter send an email to madhatterreview (AT) gmail (dot) com with your full name and snail mail address in the body and "VERIDON" in the subject line along. The deadline is midnight June15th. I'll announce the winner on the following day or as soon as I remember. This contest is open to the US residents only. If you send multiple entries you will be disqualified from the contest. The winner will be selected via random number generator per usual.

  1. I've heard good things about Akers' work. Might have to enter.

    On the other hand, the graphic disparity in the cover art makes the bibliophilic part of me cringe.

    Judge not I must.
