Weekly Giveaway (01/14)

“Find out how much God has given you and from it take what you need; the remainder is needed by others.” – St. Augustine

Because I’ve built up a large collection of duplicate books and resources, each week I’m giving away one or more of these items, absolutely free, no strings attached. To see a list of past giveaways, go here.

I previously called this “Free Stuff Friday”, accepting entries from Friday morning to Saturday morning, but I’m now stretching out the giveaway through the whole week. You can enter anytime during the week for that week’s giveaway, with a new giveaway beginning each Friday.

This week’s giveaway is a brand-new copy of Looking for the King: An Inklings Novel. I recently reviewed the book, and counted it as one of the best titles I read in 2010. You can find more information about the book on the special website created for its release, but here is a short description:

It is 1940, and American Tom McCord, a 23-year-old aspiring doctoral candidate, is in England researching the historical evidence for the legendary King Arthur. There he meets perky and intuitive Laura Hartman, a fellow American staying with her aunt in Oxford, and the two of them team up for an even more ambitious and dangerous quest.

Aided by the Inklings — that illustrious circle of scholars and writers made famous by its two most prolific members, C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien — Tom and Laura begin to suspect that the fabled Spear of Destiny, the lance that pierced the side of Christ on the Cross, is hidden somewhere in England.

To enter to win, fill out your name and e-mail address in the form below. None of your information will ever be given out, and I will only use it to contact the winner. The winner will be selected on Saturday using a random generator, and the giveaway item(s) will be sent out, free-of-charge, shortly thereafter.

In the future, I will be giving away books, CD’s, and DVD’s, sometimes more than one item per giveaway. Check back next Friday!

(One entry per person, please. The deadline for each entry will be 11:59pm each Friday. Since I’m covering the shipping costs, only residents within the continental United States will be eligible to win.)

Update: The drawing is closed for the week beginning on Friday, 01/14. Congratulations to Patrice R. for winning this week–check your e-mail for instructions on receiving the book. And check the blog for the next giveaway!
