I want to give away two copies of the shiny new hardcover volume which includes both of my two vampire/vampirism anthologies Blood is Not Enough and A Whisper of Blood.
The book's only available in Barnes & Noble and BN.Com, who reissued it under the Fall River imprint. Only requirement is that you blog about it.

Giving the book to the first two respondents is too easy--so I'd like to use other criteria for the giveaway-- suggestions welcome--I'm lousy at thinking up quiz questions, and besides most anything can be found on the internet so not that.

addition
The rules:

Tell me, in hundred words or less, why you are the best person to blog about A Whisper of Blood--you'll get more points for originality.

Only US readers (unless you're willing to pay the postage, which is not cheap).
You have until I return Monday night and I will choose two as soon as I can after I return.

Thanks to Eleanor Lang, publicist supreme.
Is now in stores and on the BN.COM website with the correct blurbs. Yayyy. Two people (one here) told me they bought copies. Wahoooooo! thank you.

I received my author's copies yesterday, but didn't say anything because pub date is tomorrow (August 1st) and the book wasn't on the BN.COM website yet. I just checked and now it is:
A Whisper of Blood

The book, which contains both Blood is Not Enough and A Whisper of Blood looks fantastic! In addition to the gorgeous wraparound cover, the front of which I've posted here earlier, the book has black endpapers and decent paper quality...better than some of my other anthologies. It's $9.98 for 588 pages of fiction. It's under the Fall River imprint of B&N and presumably is available in the bargain areas of the store.

I'll be receiving contributor copies soon but to anyone in the book reading this, it'll take awhile to send out the 36 or so copies. A few I'm grabbing from my own batch to hand carry to Denvention to La Cadigan (who has two stories--one from each volume) and Edward Bryant.
