Lev Grossman’s book trailer contest for his forthcoming novel The Magician’s Land is ending in a few days. In case you hadn’t heard of it: anyone can submit a video of themselves reading a line from the novel and have a chance to be included in what promises to be a spectacular book trailer that apparently already features several famous authors. You can find more information about how it all works on Lev’s site. The contest ends June 1st, so if you want to participate, now is the time.
Second! Thanks to Lev’s publisher Viking, I have a really nifty little giveaway for fans of the Magician novels: The Magician’s Kit.
The Magician’s Kit contains:
- An excerpt booklet containing Chapter 1 of The Magician’s Land
- Clock-face buttons in 3 different designs: click to view here
- A set of 4 postcards featuring Magicians fan art by Christopher Shy
If you’re anything like me and love book-related goodies like these, you’re salivating now. (Seriously – you should see how happy I get about custom bookmarks!)
To enter this giveaway, simply send an email with subject line “KIT” to fbrgiveaway AT gmail DOT com with your full name and mailing address. One entry per person, please: multiple entries will result in immediate disqualification, but please feel free to tell your friends! Please note that, at the publisher’s request, this giveaway is limited to US residents only.
The giveaway will end on Sunday, June 1st at 11:59 PM, and I’ll announce the winners the following day. Void where prohibited by law, rules are subject to change, batteries not included, and of course, harmful when swallowed.
