Friends of Liad and fans of science fiction, listen up! Here’s a chance for you to brighten your holiday season with a gift for yourself or a gift to give.

We – that’s Sharon Lee and Steve Miller – have seven (7) copies of the Brilliance edition of Sharon Lee and Steve Miller’s Liaden Universe^® novel Dragon in Exile narrated by Kevin T. Collins – that’s an audio book on 2 disks, in MP3 format. If you’d like a chance to win one of these all you have to do do is … hold on. Getting ahead of ourselves.

So then, wait, first, the rules.

We’re giving away seven of these audiobooks – one a day this week, starting Monday, December 5 and ending with the drawing on Sunday, December 11 . If you win one book, we’ll ask you not to try for another.

So, we hear you ask, what does it take to win...

Today’s winner of the MP3 edition of Dragon in Exile by Sharon Lee and Steve Miller, narrated by Kevin T. Collins, is!

Number 97, whose secret identity is Jeff Mierzejewski, of Austin, Texas.

Congratulations, Jeff!

And you!  Have you entered today’s drawing?  What drawing you ask?  Here’s the rules

One hundred thirty readers threw their names into the hat correctly for a chance to win a copy of the MP3 edition of Liaden Universe® novel Dragon in Exile, written by Sharon Lee and Steve Miller, narrated by Kevin T. Collins.

And the winner is!

Number 30, known to close friends as Lee Anderson, of Connecticut.

Let’s have a round of applause for the lucky winner!

We’ve now given away three out of a field of seven prizes.  That means you — yes, you! and you over there, too! still have four chances to win.  But there’s a catch.

Lean in close and I’ll tell you what it is.

Ready?

You have to play to win.

What’s that?  You don’t know how to play?

Here’s your link to the rules.

Please note that, if you choose to play a variant game, which does not follow these rules as they are lain out — yo...

Number Seventeen is the winner of the fifth available copy of the MP3 edition of Liaden Universe® novel Dragon in Exile, written by Sharon Lee and Steve Miller, and narrated by Kevin T. Collins.

Congratulations Number 17, whose secret identity is

There are only two more of these audiobooks left.  Two more chances for you to win.  Remember! Every day is a new day, and you must play every day to win.  Entries for Wednesday are only counted on Wednesday.  When Thursday comes, we start again.

Here’s your link to the rules.  The rules say what they mean.  There is only one email address where valid entries are collected.  Any other postings expressing your desire to win are only so much shouting.

Good luck.

The winner of the fourth of an original seven MP3 editions of Dragon in Exile by Sharon Lee and Steve Miller is, I kid you not!

Number 42, Steph Leif of San Diego, California!

Can I get a hearty round of applause for the lucky winner, please!

So! The arithmetically adept among you will have deduced that there are only three of these wonderful talking books left to give away.

You want one.  You know you want one.  And the only chance you have is by throwing your name into the metaphorical Liaden chapeau.

Where is this stylish head covering located, you ask?  How can I enter my name?

Here are the rules.  Read the rules.  Understand the rules.  Become One with the rules.  Do not second-guess the rules or believe that you know better than the rules.

Everybody good?

Go.

Eighty-eight valiant pilgrims threw their names into the hat to win one of two remaining copies of the MP3 edition of Dragon in Exile, a novel of the Liaden Universe®, by Sharon Lee and Steve Miller, narrated by Kevin T. Collins.

The winner, by random drawing, was!

Number 72, which would also be Tina Black

Alert readers of this blog will have deduced that there is

only one more book remaining from the original pile of seven.

Yep, today is your Absolute Last Chance to enter your name into the drawing to win that last MP3 edition of Dragon in Exile.

Entries are accepted ONLY at liadenuniverse@gmail.com.  Flailing about on the internet randomly posting wishes to win do nothing for your chances of actually winning.
