A few years ago my friend Harry wrote a novel called CHILD OF FIRE that was picked up by Random House / Del Rey. Publisher's Weekly gave it a starred review. It was also one of their best novels of the year. Everybody loved it. Last year the second novel in the series GAME OF CAGES came out. Once again - great starred review in Publisher's Weekly. Good reviews every place else. Hey, that Harry can write!
TODAY the third book in the series, CIRCLE OF ENEMIES, comes out in paperback. Publisher's Weekly *again* gave it a great starred review. Harry is three for three in the great reviews derby!
The new book is on bookstore shelves today, and available at Amazon and B&N Online, and maybe in airports and drugstores.
Last time I posted about CIRCLE OF ENEMIES I put up the trailer they made for all three books - and unlike those boring book trailers where the pudgy writer holds up a copy of his books and while the announcer tells you how great it is, the the writer says, "I'm James Patterson, read this week's book with my name on it", this is more like a movie trailer... kinda cool!
The other thing they are doing is selling the first two books in the series on Kindle (and other e-book platforms) at a discounted price - for anyone who missed them.
CHILD OF FIRE - 99 cents.
That is under a dollar! For one of the best novels of 2009!
GAME OF CAGES - $2 off!
This is a limited time deal to promote the new book.
Harry has already finished the next book in the series, but how brilliant is he to write a book about Google Plus "Circles" and have it hit bookstores just when Google Plus is taking off? By the way - love that cover!

Thanks, Bill!
Pisser. After working at the parent's house, I ride my bike to the Barnes & Noble that is near Hop Sings - figuring I'd buy Harry's book and eat some cheap Chinese food. B&N - hasn't put it on the shelf, yet and will not go back and look for it. Hop Sings - closed Tuesday.
