Armchair BEA: Shadow of Night Giveaway

Deborah Harkness's SHADOW OF NIGHT will be released July 10th by Viking.  It is the sequel to her debut novel A DISCOVERY OF WITCHES.  Together, Diana Bishop and Matthew Clairmont search for alchemical manuscript Ashmole 782.  You can join them on their hunt in style with a copy of the hardcover, a temporary tattoo, and a set of buttons.  If you aren't familiar with the All Souls trilogy, it has been compared to the works of Anne Rice, Diana Gabaldon, and Elizabeth Kostova.  I hope SHADOW OF NIGHT will be one of the best books of 2012.

My contest isn't the only chance to win.  You can also enter to win a copy of SHADOW OF NIGHT every Friday from now through July 6th on the Deborah Harkness Facebook page.

And don't worry if you haven't read A DISCOVERY OF WITCHES.  On June 10th - aka this Sunday - it will be the Kindle Deal of the Day.  That means you can get the ebook at Amazon for $2.99!

Enter to win below.  This is my first Rafflecopter giveaway, so please forgive me if I've messed it up.  Good luck!  I hope everyone is having a wonderful Armchair BEA.

Contest: A Discovery of Witches Book and Buttons

A DISCOVERY OF WITCHES by Deborah Harkness is a thick tome, suitable for using to defend yourself in case of a home invasion.  That thickness also allows for a skyline to be printed on the spine.  Pictured are some of the most famous buildings in Oxford, including the Bodleian Library and Radcliffe Camera.

Below is one of my pictures of Radcliffe Camera:

It's a strange building, and not just because it is architecturally striking.  It was a library, funded by a man who didn't believe in book learning.  Then a tunnel was built to connect the two libraries.  Now, it's mostly used as reading rooms for the Bodleian.  In A DISCOVERY OF WITCHES, "a distracting horde of daemons, withces, and vampires [descend] upon the Bodleian's reading rooms." (Quotation taken from book blurb.) 

For five weeks I lived in Radcliffe Square, my home a neighbor to both Radcliffe Camera and the Bodleian Library.  How can I resist a novel that engages my mind before I even reach the first page?  How can you?

Here's your chance to win Harkness's New York Times bestseller and a set of buttons.  Fill out the Google doc below.  I'll choose the winner in two weeks.  This contest is sponsored by Penguin, and thus restricted to US addresses, no PO Boxes.  As always, you can get someone else to mail it to you if you're international.
