Now you know I'm home: it's GIVEAWAY TIME!: seanan

Now you know I'm home: it's GIVEAWAY TIME!

I am home for more than a week, and that means it's time to unearth my postage supplies, finally mail all those posters I've taken requests for, and most of all, time to GIVE STUFF AWAY. Specifically, it's time to give away a couple of ARCs of Once Broken Faith.

You in?

To ease us back into the normal swing of things, today we're going with a random number generator drawing. US-only unless you are able to pay postage. I'm really sorry about that, but having just purchased a house, I am really not in a position to pay to mail things internationally right now. To enter...

1. Comment on this entry.
2. Specify whether you are US or international and, if international, indicate willingness to pay postage.
3. Name one thing you're hoping to see in an upcoming Toby book.

I will draw three winners via random number generator on Monday, August 8th. Game on!

ETA: Entries which do not include all three components, and which do not specifically relate to the October Daye series, are ineligible to win.

ETA2: Now closed, will be announcing our winners shortly.

Toby!

Hi there. I'm Amy from Australia and would love to pay postage for a copy of Once Broken Faith. I'd love to see what Toby is like when pregnant. Will she get grumpy? Will she have insane cravings for macaroni and cheese combined with Vegemite?

1. This is a comment.
2. I am in the US.
3. What I'd like to see in a future Toby book is Toby and Tybalt's wedding. I expect it'll be full of complications, but I'd like it if it actually works.

yay!

USA reader here! (welcome home to the new place?!)
I am looking forward with hope for more about the family genealogy and if there are more mysterious children of Oberon lurking out there and if they (Oberon and that generation) are ever coming home again, or if they even can. (sorry the icon doesn't match the series, it is the only one I have! Need to make a Toby icon obvs.)

I'm a US reader. I am always hoping to see more Luidaeg in upcoming Toby books.

1. This is my comment.

3. I still want to know what the definition of death is in Faerie. Also, since I just finished the new short story, I want to see more of a certain adorable relationship...

I'm technically in Australia, but I have several options for people in the US who will forward mail for me, so US for mailing purposes!

And omg, SO MANY THINGS. If I had to pick one, based on what we now know about Evening Winterrose, who was her sister Dawn, really?? And what happened to her?

(but also, what's going on with Marcia? What's her fae lineage, since Toby's never mentioned? And how did she stand up to Evening? She seems to be more than we've seen. Who the hell is the false Queen really, and what the hell has been going on with her? Why did the goblins smell of cookies and popcorn and what's going on with them? I know this is a world of species who exist for reasons, but the goblins seem to have got a raw deal as far as options go. Not that they're alone in that. Is there redemption for Rayseline, or only the Iron Tree? And whatwhatwhat is the big secret about Amandine's line? What will she do? What didn't she do?)

One of my favourite things about these books is that I have all these questions, but also total confidence, based on the way things have been answered so far, that we'll find things out eventually. Once Toby does ;)

1. Wut!? Yes, me please, thank you.
2. US
3. I would like to see (or, you know, read about) some characters at the Court of Cats in their 'human' form but displaying decidedly cat-like traits.

I am in the United States

and I would very much like to see more of Simon, if at all possible. That loose end is frustrating me.

I am in the US, and I am really, really hoping for more of the Luidaeg and more Quentin because they are my forever favorites.

Yay giveaway!

I am Canadian and will willingly pay postage :)

I love it whenever the Luidaeg gets involved, and I really want to know what is going to happen regarding her deal with the selkies!

Super excited for the next Toby book!
I'm a U.S. resident, happy to pay postage.
Definitely more of the Quentin/Dean goodness, and the bromance with Raj because they are awesome.

Woohoo! The October Daye series was the only thing that kept me remotely sane while my son was in the NICU for three weeks.

I'm in the US of A, and I'd love to know more about Toby's family tree.

I'm in the US, and I'd love to see some other fairy kingdoms. Silences was great, and I'd like to see what the other parts of the Summerlands are like.

I am australian and happy to pay postage

I have faith that whatever is coming will be great, what i'd kinda like to see is more crossover/cameos
Or perhaps more "tybalt making confused pop culture references"

I'm in the US, but would be happy to pay postage anyway.

I'm looking forward to more freedom for the Luidaeg.

1. Comment!
2. I'm international (Canada) and will gleefully pay postage.
3. I'm a couple books behind because of a move of my own so this might be covered already, but I would love to see more of The Luidaig and the mythology surrounding her.

1. Hello!
2. International, happy to pay postage
3. I WAS going to say I want more Quentin, but I'm just going to have to wait until Full of Briars is made available in my country. Other than that, more Luidaeg. The Luidaeg Has A Good Day Where Nothing Goes Wrong, There Is Plenty of Diet Coke and Toby Doesn't Fuck Anything Up.
