Them as checks regularly will have noticed that chapter 1 of A Wind in Cairo is now up at Book View Cafe. It's on the front page for today but will be available on my Bookshelf indefinitely.

This is all part of a Grand Evil Plan and Holiday Sale. To wit:

From now through December 1st, I will be offering the trade-paper edition of this book at one-third off the official price. That's $16 plus $5 shipping. Aaaannnnnd...here's the extra-special part: each copy you order from me will be signed. This is the brand-new twentieth-anniversary edition with a gorgeous cover by our own [livejournal.com profile] neutronjockey, a new introduction, and a bonus short story.

This sale is not available through lulu. It's our own, very special friends-and-extended-family holiday sale. (Yes, you may link and crosspost. Tell people to cite the name of this lj when they place an order.) Email me at capriole at gmail dot com and let me know how many copies you would like. I take Paypal at the gmail address (please add 5%) or check (no extra fee). I will send you my address for the check when you place your order. Multiple copies to the same address will get a discount on shipping. The large flat-rate Priority Mail box can hold at least six copies--fyi. 8)

All orders must be received and paid by December 1st. I will do my best to get everyone's copies out in time for Solstice.

This is a great gift for the horsekids in your family, and for the fantasy fans, as well as those whose copy of the original, with its ogodawful cover, is starting to show its age. If you haven't seen it before--go read the chapter. It's one of my favorite books-by-moi. I hope you will agree.

I have TWO very precious copies of The Wind in Cairo (I kinda like the cover BTW) after I stumbled across the first one and then found out how hard it is to get copies here, about 10 years later I found a second one and snapped it up.

It is one of my favourite books and IMHO the *best* horse story evah!
