Queen of the Falconstar currently free

Queen of the Falconstar is one of my lesser-known novels, probably because I haven’t finished the trilogy yet (and when I do, I will definitely get better cover art). But I’m currently writing the second and third books, and hope to publish them both later this year, so I figured it was a good time to run a free sale on the first book.
If you want to pick up this novel, you can get the ebook free through this weekend on my online store, or wherever you get your ebooks. Or you can pick up the AI narrated audiobook for $4.99 on my online store, and get the book free as well (as a side note, the book is always free whenever you get the audiobook from my online store). And if you want a print copy, I will sign and personalize it for free if you purchase it from my online store (ebook free with purchase as well, but shipping only for the US. Check Amazon for the paperback if you are international.)
Queen of the Falconstar

She volunteered to be a captive. Now she must become a queen.
Zlata has always dreamed of escaping the stifling monotony of Graznav Station, but not like this. When space nomads raid her home, she volunteers as their captive to save her friend Sonya from a worse fate. Brought aboard the Falconstar as a slave to the enigmatic Lord Khasan Valdamar, Zlata quickly realizes that her only path to survival lies in the treacherous world of intra-clan power politics. Using her cunning and ruthless pragmatism, she must navigate betrayal, conspiracy, and deadly power games to rise from slave to queen—all while her friend is slated to be sold as a slave.

Desert Stars
He is sheikh’s sole heir, a young man raised by desert tribesmen after falling from the stars. She is the sheikh’s most beautiful daughter, promised his hand in marriage—but only if she can convince him to stay.
Together, they must travel to a land where glass covers the sky and men traverse the stars as easily as tribesmen cross the desert. At the ancient temple dedicated to the memory of Earth, they hope to find the answers that will lead them home.
But the call of the stars soon threatens to bring their budding romance to an end. And as the moment of decision draws near, the choices they must make will drive them toward a future that neither can foresee.

$.99 sale for TALES OF THE FAR OUTWORLDS
Hi guys! Just a quick announcement that Star Wanderers: Tales of the Far Outworlds (Omnibus V-VIII) is on a special $.99 for the week!
While this omnibus contains the last four parts of the series, they stand on their own a little bit better and can be read independently of the first four. My favorite book is probably Deliverance (Part VIII), which was a lot of fun to write. Also, Dreamweaver (Part V) is basically a retelling of Outworlder (Part I), but from Noemi’s point of view.
I’m also running a Goodreads giveaway for the print edition, which came out just a couple of months ago. The giveaway ends when the sale ends, at the end of the week. To enter the giveaway, click here.
In the meantime, you can pick up the ebook edition of Tales of the Far Outworlds basically everywhere for $.99 until Sunday. So check it out!

Last chance to get my books 50% off on Smashwords!
Hey guys, just a heads up that tomorrow and Wednesday are the last days to get all my books 50% off on Smashwords for the annual summer sale. Everything is under $2.50 USD, and the $.99 stuff is free! That might seem like a pretty steep discount, but I actually earn as much from each sale as I would for a trade paperback sale if my books were traditionally published, and I don’t mind passing on the savings to you.
Also, my friend and fellow writer Ben Keeley did a blog post about our low-key backpacking trip up Rock Canyon, so if that interests you, you can check it out on his blog. That rattlesnake was pretty freaky! Good thing he was about as eager to get away from us as we were to get away from him. We didn’t climb any mountains on this one, but we did find a gorgeous campsite on the side of a steep ravine. I definitely want to go camp there again sometime.
I’m taking it easy as far as the writing goes, but making some progress on The Sword Keeper. A lot of it right now is gathering ideas and reviewing what I’ve written so far (eleven chapters, or about 50k words). The first chapter requires some changes, but the rest I’ll probably let stand as it is and pick up where I left off. Once I’m fully immersed in this story again, I think the rest will come quite readily.
In the meantime, here’s a video of Mariam Elieshvili singing “ჩვენ ახლა ერთურთს,” chven axla erturts. I have no idea what the lyrics mean (something about looking for love in each others’ eyes), but Mariam’s voice is amazing and I think I may have a small celebrity crush on her. All this Georgian music definitely puts me in the mood to work on The Sword Keeper, kind of like how all that Arabic music helped me to write Desert Stars.
… and now I want to go back to Georgia. Again. :'(
