Looks like those eclipses are right on time.

Yes, it's time for the moment you've all been waiting for: the moment where I give away the first ARC of Late Eclipses, fourth book in the October Daye series. Because I am an enormous dork, I literally waited to open this giveaway until I had my book-specific icon in place. STOP JUDGING ME. I am a dork, I embrace my dorkitude. Anyway...

Who wants to win an ARC? About what I figured. I'll have some more effort-intensive contests in a little bit, but first up, it's our old favorite, the random drawing. To enter, please do the following:

1) Leave a comment on this entry. Leave it as a comment on the entry, please, not on someone else's comment. Comments left on other comments cannot win.

2) That's all.

Please don't comment going "pick me, pick me," if you could be so kind. I don't pick anyone. The random number generator picks the winner, and it is a cruel mistress which has never yet picked a comment containing "pick me." Instead, why not tell me why you're excited about this book? I'd really love to know.

I will choose a winner at 2PM PST on Tuesday, December 21st.

Game on!

I need to know what got Toby into a dress and you told me I needed to read the book to find out.
I am very much looking forward to reading more about Toby and the insanity that is her world. I'm waiting to see what happens with all of the different characters, and how their stories will unfold; they're all different, and they're all fascinating in their own ways. :)
I understand wanting to wait until one has an appropriate userpic in order to post something. This userpic is not specifically selected for this response. I mean, I didn't make it for this response - I've had it for a while, because Lothy was a greedy kitty who wanted everything.
I've not read any of your work yet, but I've enjoyed reading many of your LJ posts, and I'm an urban fantasy fan, so I'd like to get into October Daye.
yay giveaway!
I love your books and I cannot wait until March for the next Toby book... Although in March it arrives right for my birthday :)
Glad to hear that Alice is doing ok :)
I've already won once and am not so greedy to even try again.

Just wanted to say YEAH to Dorkdom! LOVE the icon!!
Gambling I'm in!!!
Ooh, I'm in! I'm excited because I'm interested to see where you're going to take Toby next - she seems to have come into her own in some ways in the last book, and I'm interested in seeing where that'll lead her.
All my life I've wanted to grow up to be Stephen King. It was either him or Anne Rice, and I had no like for romance or erotica. Then I read Rosemary and Rue and discovered Seanan McGuire: Girl of Awesome (and later her alter ego of amazing alter egoness, Mira Grant). I like buying the books, it's my way to tell the publishing industry "I love you for the gift of more Seanan books!"

But it'd sure be special to have an ARC, don't you think?
Also love an ARC. That would be so awesome.

*hopes the random number generator thingymabob finds me*
because these books are made of awesome
I am excited about this book because I am excited about every book you write, and because I can't wait to see what happens next. :)
I am excited about this book because I have a friend or two who won't read a new series until it's four books in - so they know they can really dive into the world to start. So this book means I can spread the Toby love to more folks.
Why am I excited about this book? Because I have reread An Artificial Night more times than I can count now, and it was even my take-to-the-dentist book the other week. How could I not be excited about the next one?
Thanks for the giveaway! I can't wait for Late Eclipses!
I think random number generators are the bee's knees.
Why am I excited? TOBY! Books by Seanan! Toby #4!!!! Three was....incredible....you just keep stepping up the amazement, how could I not be excited by then next one? Also, all of these people - so much love. I need my next fix, need more of them :)

Also dear - happy yule :)
Why are I excited about this book? Why would I not be excited? It's fun, it's a good read, it's by someone I like, and so forth.

Kindly hustle back up to Seattle. It's too dull around here.
HI
I can't wait for the next book in the series. I enjoy reading about Toby and her world. I am so excited about Amandine joining us in Late Eclipse.
Many reasons to be excited about this new book. One, it's new! Two, it's new and by you!. Three, it is incredibly rare in my experience that a series just keeps getting better with every book. Many times you stick with things just because you want to know how they end and if there's no end in sight... Other times a tale will peak or plateau and then begin the long slide into, "Oh my god why are you still doing this?"(The money, we know. Sorry Piers. Not good enough.) While there is always the chance that this may happen to Toby in the future so far you have built on your work and exceeded my expectations every single time. An Artificial Night was superb and the teaser in it for Late Eclipses has made March something to look forward to rather than one of the more usually miserable months of the year here in Wisconsin. Here's hoping and thanks for all the hard work!
have a lovely day!
Let's all embrace our inner dorkitude! I seem to do it at LEAST twice a day!

Bring on Toby!
I want an ARC, I wanna see what trouble Toby gets into next
Squee!
