In the Final!

the two finalists
























It's all over. With your help King of Thorns definitely punched above its weight against the juggernaut that is Brent Weeks. It got 500(!) 'likes' and lost by 49.3% of the vote to 50.7% for The Blinding King. Huge thanks for all the support.

Mark Lawrence my 253 now vs his 437 ...

If you could just get 200 friends to 'like' the book I might still win! :D

Mark Lawrence I guess it will all swing on how many people commented the page or tweeted the hashtag. I expected to be crushed so huge thanks to everyone who took the time to make it such a close thing!

Arve Kvaloy 50.7% against 49.3%... could it be any closer :) Seems there was a rally after you posted here on GoodReads Mr.Lawrence....readers flocking to the Thorn Banner :)

Mark Lawrence Won the 'likes' but lost it on the tweets (Brent has 11,000 followers!)

Huge thanks to everyone who helped me punch above my weight!

Had some compensation just now though!

John L I'd have supported more if it didn't involve twitter or facebook :(. Congrats all the same, though!

Angie I loved the king of thorns, Jorg is truly fantastic, he's come along way from the beginning of Prince of thorns.the result was very close, l don't think it could be a narrower result, so congrats, and I can't for the emperor of thorns.
