Assassin still free…but the clock is ticking

“… the stories and the mind behind them are first rate”
 – Janis Ian, 4 star review from Assassin

Checked the shadows lately? Assassin is free and afoot, but not for much longer! Snag this story while supplies last…oh, well, it’s digital, so they’ll last forever. But it won’t be free forever. Grab it now!

If you’ve already read it, could you tear yourself away from Grimm long enough to write a short review? Quick, painless, and a huge help to me. For your convenience (flourish)…the direct links to Assassin’s review sites!

For a limited time, Sword of Kings and Assassin and will be free on back-to-back four day runs:

September 2 – 5       Sword of Kings
September 6 – 9       Assassin

Get lost in these tales of high fantasy—Sword of Kings and Assassin—both FREE over the next eight days on Amazon, starting tomorrow, September 2.

My only request: if you like what you’ve read and I managed to take you away from the cares of this dimension for even a short time, please consider writing a review and sharing the story with one other person. Handy links direct to review sites will be provided in a few days when I announce the closing of the sale.

Your support is hugely appreciated!

Mark your calendars and happy reading!

I thought I’d give an analysis of what I was aiming for, what I achieved, and some of the lessons learned.
