Laydeez and Gennlemen!! Roll up, roll up for Vulpes Libris’ second Great Book Giveway!!
William Heinemann have very generously donated not one, but TWO – count ‘em, TWO – first edition, hardback copies of Nick Harkaway’s extraordinary debut novel The Gone-Away World (reviewed by yours truly HERE) - and if they aren’t future collectibles, I’ll eat my hat (or possibly a Mars bar … or some nice rose creams …).
If you want to be in with a chance of winning a copy, just post a comment on this thread before 10.00am BST on Sunday (nothing witty or erudite is necessary – “Me! Me! Choose me!” will do just fine), and the winners will be the first two names chosen at random by my dear old Mum, who thinks I’m slightly loopy, but quite nice really …
As ever, Book Foxes are ineligible for entry into the draw. False moustaches and funny voices will avail you nothing.


Ooohhh! I want! I want! Oh wait, sorry, where are my manners? Please enter me into the contest. Thank you.
Now that would be good! I know a certain Mr. Something who’d be verrrrrrrrrrry interested. Finger’s crossed
Me, geev eet to mee!

I was just about to pull that scam, Rosy! Great prize, Moira. I vant it. I know, I know, I’m ineligible. Mutter mutter moan.
Aha – but now she can’t see me, I could sneak back later in an interesting geometrically-designed box disguise…
