dianeduane | Happy Birthday Peter! 55% off everything at the Ebooks Direct store...

(Peter at the Boathouse Restaurant in Central Park, NY, 1985)

In a few days -- specifically, on October 20 -- Peter Morwood turns 55. Astonishing! We're dangerously close to having been married 25 years now, and it doesn't seem anything like that long. I guess we must be having fun. :)

Anyway, in honor of this upcoming event, for the next 55 hours, everything in our Ebooks Direct store (including Peter's own "Tales of Old Russia" series, natch) will be 55% off when you use the discount code HAPPYBIRTHDAYPETER. Those of you who've been wondering what his stuff's like, here's a great chance to find out. (If the blurb for the second in the series, Firebird, doesn't spell it out clearly enough: "No cutesy unicorns. No holier-than-thou elves. No magic boots, hatstands, or other mystical bric-a-brac. Just sorcery, sex, graphic violence, battles too real to need to be epic, and the biggest damn talking wolf you ever saw.")

BTW, fans of his "Horse Lords" series: the prequels, Greylady and Widowmaker, will also become available as ebooks too in the next month or so. Make a note. ...And those of you who've been waiting for another "deep discount day" to pick up a copy of the international 9-ebook set of the entire Young Wizards series (or just one or two of the YW books that you might be missing)... this is about as good a deal as you're ever going to get. So don't miss your chance.

The discount ends at midnight on October 20th, at which point Himself and I are likely to be off somewhere having a beer. Or three.

Happy (almost your) birthday, Peter!
