Summer has flown away. Now, as the leaves change color and we all close our eyes and wish with all our hearts for the holidays to hurry up and get here so we can get another much needed break from work...uh, I mean spend time with family, friends and other miscellaneous loved ones, I have a little surprise for you.

In an effort to do my part to help you lose a few of those summer vacation pounds, I’m going to give you something to do. (Yeah me!) In exchange, you will earn a code for 100% off of one of the following ebook titles: Amarna Book I: Book of Ida, Rebellion Book I: Book of Quay or Cabello. ( Note: 100% off = free.)









If you want to earn extra gold stars, you can also earn a second free title: Amarna Book II: Book of Hawara or Rebellion Book II: Book of Soung!







How you ask? Why through Review Roulette!

In this round, you’re going to spread your review around like confetti. To qualify for the Tier One free Grea Alexander ebook titles (Amarna Book I: Book of Ida, Rebellion Book I: Book of Quay or Cabello), you will have to post your TEXT review (including star rating where applicable) on ALL of the following five sites:

Goodreads https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
Smashwords https://www.smashwords.com/profile/vi...
Amazon (which ever applies to your country) http://www.amazon.com/Grea-Alexander/...
Library Thing https://www.librarything.com/author/a...
Barnes & Noble http://www.barnesandnoble.com/c/grea-...

To qualify for the offer, all five reviews posted must be on the same title. Even just a sentence or two will do. You can even cut and paste in your previously posted review onto the sites you haven’t yet in order to complete the five. If you do not have access to one of these sites due to country of origin log in restrictions, you may substitute other book review sites.

Already have your review posted at all five? It still counts (and just reinforces your total awesomeness).

Once your review is up at all five sites, send me the screen name(s) under which you posted your published reviews and the title of the book you want the free code for in order to receive the free code. You can either do so by sending me a message via Goodreads, Library Thing, email or Seamonkey Ink's Contact Us page. It’s that easy!

Want to earn the free Tier 2 title (Amarna Book II: Book of Hawara or Rebellion Book II: Book of Soung)? Simply, post your TEXT review (including star rating where applicable) on FIVE additional sites. The reviews on the additional five sites must be for the same title that earned you your 1st free book above.

These additional sites can be any sites that allow such postings including book blogs, other book review sites, Seamonkey Ink retailer sites or even your own pages such as personal web pages, facebook, twitter (#FallFreeforAll @seamonkeyink), etc. Just as above, send me the links, screen name(s) for your published reviews at all five new sites and the title of the book you want in order to receive your code redeemable for 100% off.

To help you out, here is a listing of some of my known retailers: http://seamonkeyink.com/smi_indexes_2...

There is no limit on the number of Grea Alexander titles you can review or claim.

Offer valid WORLDWIDE through 12/31/14.

Coupon code is redeemable for 2 weeks after the date it’s sent. Coupon is NON-TRANSFERABLE. (Translation: Do not give it out or share it. Likewise, do not post free downloads of my books on any sites.)

Thanks again & Enjoy!

P.S. Don't forget to send me the links, your screen name(s) on each site and the title you want in order to claim this offer. If you do not, you will not receive the code.

I will NOT hunt you down. Ok, so maybe I would, but probably not for that reason...probably.

Also note: While I love my little Seamonkey Spawn so, all expiration dates are firm.

Last note: Please review the new title(s) as well. Good things happen to Grea Alexander reviewers!

Thank you and Enjoy!

If you prefer, here is a list of some of my other retailers: http://seamonkeyink.com/smi_indexes_2...

All of these series will have new chapters coming out within the next year so hurry and catch up before the next chapters hit or before I change my mind and restore my normal retail prices.

Enjoy!

Synopsis:

How far are you willing to go? How much are you willing to sacrifice?

These are the questions King Mursili II has had to ask himself every day since his 13th year – the year the gift of prophecy had awakened within him, the year Queen Ankhesenamun’s slave Ida had come to his father’s court begging for one of Mursili’s brothers to marry the queen and save the throne of Egypt.

Despite the unfortunate turn of events – his brother’s murder and the fall of Queen Ankhesenamun, the gods had been quite clear. The fate of the Hittite Kingdom was linked to that of Egypt. His fate was linked to that of Ida. If one fell, so would the other. His only hope to restore his own Hittite Kingdom to greatness was to restore the Amarna line to power in Egypt, to atone for the sins of his father.

Yet, with those closest to him being sacrificed in the process and the tide continuing to rise against them, how far is King Mursili prepared to go to see the prophecy fulfilled?

Thank you and Enjoy!

They're Heeeerrrree! (The winter holidays not some demonic entity that enjoys playing with television snow, clowns and tequila.)

It’s time to spend too much, eat too much and poison your love for the holidays until they’re gone (after which you’ll miss them). The world is shinier, people are pretending to be nicer, everyone’s greed is showing and all around the world cities and towns are lit up like Christmas trees on speed-infused steroids - emitting enough light pollution to blind our outer-worldly guests as they whiz(z) through space. (Says she who puts no less than 1,000 lights on her 5-6 foot Christmas tree every year. Note: Douglas Firs rule!).

In honor of this most sacred period, I have gifts for all - no reciprocal decade old fruit cake required! (Though you can feel free to send me all of the non-toxic presents you like)!

From RIGHT NOW through 1/1/2016:



Amarna Book I: Book of Ida $0.99 USD Save 66%!



Amarna Book II: Book of Hawara $1.99 USD Save 33%!



Amarna III: Book of Raia $2.99 USD Save 0% but get to find out how it ends



Cabello $0.99 USD Save 66%






Rebellion I: Book of Quay $2.99 USD Save 40%



Rebellion II: Book of Soung $3.99 USD Save 20%


Rebellion III: Book of Choi $4.99 USD Save 0% but find out EVERYTHING



On Smashwords: https://www.smashwords.com/profile/vi... NO COUPON REQUIRED.

As Barnes and Noble and pretty much all of my other retailers get their electronic editions through Smashwords, the prices will drop at most of my vendors as well within a few days of this posting.

Unfortunately, Amazon has minimum pricing that they will not drop below UNLESS someone happens to point out that another retailer is carrying the same ebook for a lower price (hint. hint) http://freebies2deals.com/2012/11/how...

And please don't forget to review. Reviews are better than a turkey induced coma and good things happen to Grea Alexander reviewers!

Enjoy!

As of this morning Amarna I: Ida is in the Top 100 Paid books for both Ancient Historical Fiction and Ancient Middle Eastern Fiction right along with authors such as Wilbur Smith, Elisabeth Storrs, Celeste Barclay, Libbie Hawker, Steven Saylor & Clive Cussler.

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1xTV...

Amarna III: Raia is ALSO in the Top 100 Paid for Ancient Historical Fiction.



https://drive.google.com/open?id=1z5g...



My poor book II is always so neglected and underrated though people tend to buy all 3 in the series. (laugh) It sits right outside of the Top 100.

Honestly, what it really comes down to is timing. These lists change quickly. Hourly to be precise. Book II just wasn't purchased enough within the same time period as the Book I & III buys and thus didn't make the time cut off for the ranking update.

So, "technically" I am and have been an Amazon Bestselling Author quite a few times. However, I'm not one who is quick to change my covers and bios to say so as I tend to jump off and on the lists.

When I have a book that stays in the Top 100 for at least a week, then I'll consider it.

Still, it's fun to see and laugh about.

Cheers!

Grea.
