Giveaway - Black Hills - Dan Simmons


Thanks to the generous folks at The Hachette Book Group I have three audio book copies of Dan Simmons' latest book Black Hills to giveaway.

From the publisher:

"Paha Sapa, a young Sioux warrior, first encounters General George Armstrong Custer as Custer lies dying on the battlefield at Little Bighorn. He believes--as do the holy men of his tribe--that the legendary general's ghost entered him at that moment and will remain with him until Sapa convinces him to leave.

In BLACK HILLS, Dan Simmons weaves the stories of Paha Sapa and Custer together seamlessly, depicting a violent and tumultuous time in the history of Native Americans and the United States Army. Haunted by the voice of the general his people called "Long Hair," Paha Sapa lives a long life, driven by a dramatic vision he experiences in the Black Hills that are his tribe's homeland. As an explosives worker on the massive Mount Rushmore project, he may finally be rid of his ghosts--on the very day FDR comes to South Dakota to dedicate the Jefferson face."

Get a head start - listen to an excerpt of Black Hills. Or read an excerpt of Black Hills. Watch a video of Dan discussing Black Hills. You can also find Dan Simmons on Facebook.

Open to both US and Canada, no po boxes please. Leave a comment to be entered. Closes Sat April 10, 6 pm EST.
