Giveaway: Acheron and Breaking Dawn

Book CoverBook Cover

Two books we’re excited for here at Book Binge (I say two because you know there are like 5 hundred million on the “want/wish” list) are Breaking Dawn, book 4 in the Twilight Series by Stephanie Meyer and Acheron, book 12 in the Dark Hunter Series by Sherrilyn Kenyon.

I think these 2 books are probably the most anticipated of each series to date. Because we know all of you are looking forward to them just as much as we are, we’re going to giveaway a copy of each.

In order to be entered you need to leave a comment on this post telling us which book you want and why. Please include your email address along with your comment (we’ve had several contest winners in the past who didn’t receive a prize because we had no way to contact them to let them know they won) or send us an email to thebookbinge at gmail dot com (no spaces) if you aren’t comfortable leaving your email address in public.

Note: You will not be entered into the contest if you don’t include an email address.

That’s all you have to do..leave a comment telling us which book you want and why. If you want to enter for both books that’s fine, but the same person can’t win both, so you’ll eventually have to choose which one you want.

The contest will end Monday, August 4th at noon. Winners will be announced the same day, and we’ll order your book from Amazon and include overnight shipping (overnight shipping available only to residents of the United States. International readers may enter, but your package will be shipped regular mail to make it cost effective). Or, if you’d rather, we’ll do an eBook so you can have it immediately (although you may not want to go with this option, as each book is 700+ pages).

As added incentive, if you pimp this contest on your site and send us the link, we’ll throw your name into the hat twice. Because we’re cool like that.

Book Cover

The most anticipated story in the blockbuster Dark-Hunter series. The never-before-revealed story of the Dark-Hunter leader, Acheron. He was made human in order to escape death, but in death he was reborn a god. . .

Eleven thousand years ago a god was born. Cursed into the body of a human, Acheron spent a lifetime of shame. However, his human death unleashed an unspeakable horror that almost destroyed the earth. Then, brought back against his will, Acheron became the sole defender of mankind.

Only it was never that simple. For centuries, he has fought for our survival and hidden a past he’ll do anything to keep concealed. Until a lone woman who refuses to be intimidated by him threatens his very existence.

Now his survival, and ours, hinges on hers and old enemies reawaken and unite to kill them both.

War has never been more deadly… or more fun.

This book is available from St. Martin’s Press, August 5, 2008. You can pre-order it here.

Book Cover

Twilight tempted the imagination. New Moon made readers thirsty for more. Eclipse turned the saga into a worldwide phenomenon. And now, the book that everyone has been waiting for…

Breaking Dawn, the final book in the #1 bestselling Twilight Saga, will take your breath away.

This book is available from Little, Brown and Company, August 2nd, 2008. You can pre-order it here.

Good luck!

XOXOXO
Holly, Casee and Rowena

    Pimpage!

    No need to enter me in the contest, though. I’ve got Acheron on order and I suppose now would be the time to admit I haven’t read any of the Twilight series. *hangs head in shame*

  2. I am going to opt for Breaking Dawn simply because I am not up to Acheron’s book yet!

    And I’ve blogged your giveaway here and my email is in my profile!

  3. Wow, what an awesome giveaway!

    Either book would be awesome. Haven’t read Meyer’s series yet and I’ve so been wanting to. This would be just the impetus I need to get me started so I’d buy the other books. And Kenyon’s Archeron trailer was so cool. Can’t wait to read this book, too!

  4. I totally would love any of the books. This is so cool that you guys are giving the books away. If I had to choose it would be Breaking Dawn.

  5. Maered

    Excellent contest! I would love to win Acheron – already ordered Breaking Dawn.

    Slightly OT – Have you guys seen the spoilers for Breaking Dawn? I’m getting nervous about this book, and not in a good way.

  6. I am new to the Twilight series and have only read the first book so far. I would love to win Breaking Dawn because I am enjoying this series and will be up to that book soon I am sure.

    (going to email my email address)

  7. I would love to win Acheron! I’ve followed the Dark Hunter series since the beginning, and my hopes are high for this one. My email is le-sarah(at)live.com

  8. Definitely Breaking Dawn. Why? Because I’m a middle school librarian who is starting to work at a poor school in September, and I’d love to have read the final book and then donate it to the library. (I’m already donating the first three)

    Thanks,

  9. Breaking Dawn for me, please. Have heard from a friend that it truly is entertaining…just probably not in the way the author intended 😉

    Have a lovely day! 🙂

  10. Fantastic! Would prefer Breaking Dawn – I’m not the sort that buys hardcovers for myself, but I’m not keen on waiting through the holds queue at the local library, either.

    E-mail is available either at my profile or on my blog.

  11. Oooh, wow! This is such a fantabulous contest! I would love to be entered to win Breaking Dawn because I’ve read the series and it is fantastic but addictive as heck! =) But both books do look good! Lol, it seems like whatever Stephenie Meyer touches turns to gold. I will definitely pimp this contest on my blog! I’ll have it up tomorrow, coz my internet is really slow right now so I’ll have to use the Uni comps. =D Thanks so much for this!

  12. How about both, because SOMEONE didn’t lend me any books (*Holly*) and now I have nothing to read on a 1439590275 hour plane flight.

    And also it ends on my birthday. I really think that’s a sign.

    Wow, you don’t believe in making it easy, do you???

    I guess I would have to pick Acheron because I own all of the Dark-Hunter books. Plus, well, it’s Acheron 🙂

  14. Oh man, I’d LOVE to win Acheron! It’s Ash, the man, ummm god, I’ve been waiting forever for!

    Acheron, I love Sherrilyn’s Dark Hunters from the beginning…they are the books that started me reading vampires and shapeshifters…before the Dark Hunters, I never could get into them. Now I love them.

  16. I would pick Acheron by Sherrilyn Kenyon. I have read most of her Dark Hunter books. I was at BooksaMillion yesterday and they were having a party that night for Stephanie Meyer’s new book coming out. I had never read any of her books so I bought Twilight and New Moon. I will have to get the other two after reading these. I also bought one of Sherrilyn’s books I had not read yet!! Great contest for great books and authors.Thanks!!

  17. Acheron is definitely at the top of my wish list. This is such a great paranormal series and I have all her previous titles on my keeper shelf.

  18. I would like Breaking Dawn. I have yet to read the Twilight series, but my SIL is gonna let me borrow her books. So if I win this, I won’t need to borrow her brand new one, which I fear I will not be able to tear out of her hands!

  19. I would love to get Acheron. I love SK’s books, I’ve even got a couple of the old ones in ebook that have been OOP for years. Seems like we’ve been waiting for Ash’s story forever.

  20. I would love to win Breaking Dawn since I am going to Nashville and getting my copy of Acheron on Monday. Whoohoo. I can’t wait.

  21. This is a really great oportunity for two very popular books, but I already have Ash pre-ordered since I’ve been a Dark Hunter junkie for years ; )) So my request would be Breaking Dawn, please!

  22. I want to win Acheron. I love the Dark Hunter series. Sherrilyn Kenyon is one of my favorite authors.
    Thanks you so much for this giveaway.

    I would love to win Breaking Dawn. I love Stephanie Meyers books. I can’t want to find out what happens next. I was going to buy the book but I had to spend it on school clothes. 🙁

  24. Either book would be a great win! Both of these authors are totally awesome. Either way if I win Acheron, I’ll be happy. If I win Breaking Dawn my daughters will be stoked! nannettehawkinsatbellsoutdotnet

  25. Okay this one is hard for me because I have been wanting both. I haven’t read any of the series from either author. I have heard nothing but great things about both series. Soooo going to go with Acheron and if I win I will just have to catch up on all of the rest! Have a wonderful day.

    TamiCullen@Hotmail.Com

    Don’t hold it against me that I haven’t read any of them, I just started reading alittle over a year ago I am soooooooo far behind on all kinds of good books and great authors.

  26. I’ve been wanting Breaking Dawn because I’ve become obsessed with the twilight series. Edward is amazing, Bella is my hero, Emmett is my dream guy and I have become a twilight junkie. If that sounds wierd I’m sorry, but it’s true. I have been waiting for this book literally, at least literally in my mind, FOREVER!!!! I want to find out how Bella handeled her transformation, I want to find out how her and Edward’s wedding went, I want to find out what happened to Jacob, and I want to find out what happened to Bella’s parents after she changed into a vampire. I’ve been dying to read it.

    I love the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer and would kill to have it. Her series is captivating and makes you obsessed until you read and re-read, filling your brain with every small detail. I’ve been waiting for Breaking Dawn to be released as soon as Eclipse was released! So I would love, LOVE, to be able to win Breaking Dawn.

  28. Linda L.

    I NEED Breaking Dawn! Something about the series made me fall in love with it. I even forced my friend into reading it so I could discuss it with her and ta-da, SHE fell in love with it too. So that was a great accomplishment. I love you right now for this great giveaway!

    llin29[at]gmail[dot]com

  29. Acheron for me, please. I’ve read every one of Sherrilyn Kenyon’s books so far and can’t wait to see what happens in this one. I just bought the first book in Meyer’s series so it will be a while before I’m ready to read Breaking Dawn.

    Acheron!!! Because I love all of the DarkHunter novels and finished Breaking Dawn less than 18 hours after I bought it last night 😛

  31. I’d like to win Breaking Dawn because I’ve read the first three books already. Just want to complete the series. Also, I’ve read so many rants about it I want to read it myself now. xD I haven’t read the Dark Hunter series.

    Anyway, thanks for hosting this contest and good luck to the others!

    Before I forget, I also blogged about this contest here.

  32. Already pre-ordered Acheron, so I’ll go with Breaking Dawn.

    I have heard so much about this series, I also ordered the first book in the series.

  34. I would love to read Breaking Dawn because I’ve heard so much hype on it and I would love to jump on the bandwagon 🙂

    I would love to win Acheron. I’ve been waiting for his book since I first started reading the DHs 4 years ago and I can’t believe the wait is almost over… To think I used to feel that 2007 was too far away, and then I had to wait until 2008!

    natashahs@yahoo.com

  36. BREAKING DAWN, because I’ve read the first three in the series and want to read the new one! The sequels have disappointed me some so I didn’t buy it the instant it came out, but I’ve been hearing good things and I’m eager to complete the saga!

    My e-mail is inbedwithbooks AT yahoo DOT com.

  37. I’d love Breaking Dawn simply because I have too many to read in Kenyon’s series yet. I’m much closer to getting the Meyers read a lot sooner!

  38. And I’m trying this again because I forgot my email address! LOL, cut me slack, I just got back from San Francisco and I’m exhausted! Here’s my entry again:

  39. I don’t know if I will win, but I will enter anyway. My daughter already has Breaking Dawn. So, I would love to have Acheron. I am excited about Acheron’s story. I can’t wait to read it.

  40. I opt for Breaking Dawn by Stephenie Meyer because; I would love to give it as a gift. I want to be able to see the look of shock and surprise on my friends face when she looks upon her very own copy of Breaking Dawn. She is a very unique and vibrant young lady of 14 years, who is obsessed with the “Twilight Series”. She has read every one of the books several times over and has been impatiently waiting for the newest release.
