This is the last time in 2014 that Champion in the Darkness will be free.
After this, I'm going to take it off Kindle Select and put it back up at other vendors like Smashwords and Nook.
Why now?
Next week, Champion in Flight will officially be released! I'm hoping that a few readers will pick up Champion in the Darkness, and look for the next book right away.
Champion in Flight is completely formatted and available for pre-sale orders at Smashwords.
Release date: June 2nd!!!
Until then, the first book in The Champion Trilogy, Champion in the Darkness is free from May 27th through May 31st!
Book 1: Champion in the Darkness
Whether Clara is ready or not, the evil Kalidess has wormed her way into Septily's court.
Clara is aided by another mentor, Stelia, whose knowledge of their enemy is both a bane and a blessing. As evil threatens their land, Clara and Stelia must find the strength to overcome the darkness.
Free today through May 29th for Kindle!

Book 2 Champion in Flight
A year after she won the battle for Septily, Clara feels
trapped in Skycliff by the Allied Council. As the last pieces of information
about the Healing Caves fall into place, Clara is attacked by an assassin. Covert
Drinaii mercenaries and the Council aren’t going to stop Clara from her quest
to heal her broken blade. As Champion of Aramatir, she must act.
Meanwhile, in the joint kingdoms of Rrysorria and Wylandria,
the youngest and still cursed swan prince despairs of ever being whole again. In
a moment of anger and desperation, Liam discovers a blood link between him and
a dark sorceress.
Clara won the battle for Septily, but her battle isn’t over.
Best of luck with the new release! I'll have to give your freebie a shout out.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Elizabeth!!!
DeleteAll best with your release! Seems like a smart plan offering the first free before the second releases.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Barbara! I hope so. :)
DeleteGood strategy. Hope you'll post about your results. I know a lot of us are always looking for promotions that work. Here's to that next book. I'll be sure to post or tweet or whatever you need.
ReplyDeleteThanks, C. Lee! I appreciate your help and support, and I will try to post on whether or not it works . . . I'm not sure yet. 63 free ebooks are out there as of this morning, but I don't know what that will mean for sales of the second book.
DeleteI am really enjoying Champion in Flight! So far it is everything I was expecting.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jack! :)

Hardly ready for the IWSG.... I usually write those the night before. LOL. My post today has a bit of angst, lol. I wonder if that counts. LOL.
Sometimes I write my IWSG in advance and then throw it out. This time I have an idea that I think will stick around until then.
DeleteCongratulations, Tyrean! And best of luck with the release. :D
ReplyDeleteThanks!
