Nigel Cole | 24 comments Group bods and assorted literati,

I've been running a freebie promo for my alter-ego's sci-fi short story collection, and am thinking I'll follow it up with a free promo on Kindle for Last Exit Before Trolls Book 1 Swimming With Toasters but as I'm looking for the right audience for it I thought I'd run it by you guys and gals to find out how many might be interested in a free Kindle copy (it'll be free on amazon for a limited period, so none of this 'review it and you can have a copy' crap that we all love so dearly). It's a decent size tome at 100,000 words and the reviews to date have been pretty good (though I still balk at the comparisons to TP even if perhaps there are some similarities in the subject matter). If there's interest generally from the group I can sort out the free run and let you know when it's happening...

It's been in my Amazon wish-list for months now, so please let me know about the "happening."

Nigel Cole | 24 comments Will do Melki - it is definitely going ahead, the only question is when and for how long and I'll gauge that based on the response I get from the group...

Nigel Cole | 24 comments Well if anybody is interested, Last Exit Before Trolls Book 1 Swimming With Toasters is now free on Kindle and will be until 5th March. Reviews gratefully received but if you grab a free copy and don't review it I won't sulk or anything and I doubt Karma will catch up with you later :-)

Here's the blurb to give you an idea of the content/tone...

"Presented here for the first time as a dramatic novelization, Last Exit Before Trolls Volume 1: Swimming With Toasters allows you to experience The Grand Separation as though you were actually there, as many of those involved in the production of this book nearly were.

You may think you know all that there is to know about The Grand Separation and how the world you live in today was created.
But do you really?
How much do you really know about Draknoor, the last of the Great Black Dragons? What strange events led to the rediscovery of the King's fabled sword Excalibur in the waters of The Wold? And could you answer with certainty if asked when the trolls made Dartford Tunnel their home? These, and many other questions, are at least partially answered in Last Exit Before Trolls Volume 1: Swimming With Toasters.

Until now the facts about the reintegration of the two worlds have been shrouded in mystery, either because there were none left alive to tell of them, or because they were deliberately kept from you. The Falston Gazette Press, with the approval (pending) of King Arthur II, can finally bring you the truth.

You've read the rest, now read this one. It's less apocryphal. Most likely."
