It’s no secret that I’m a huge fan of Meljean Brook. I love her so much I want to have her babies (and she 
agreed, I have proof!). When she told me eons and eons ago that she was going to start writing Steampunk, I was thrilled. Partially because I adore her and want to read everything she writes, but also because I’ve always enjoyed Steampunk and want to see more of it published.
After I read the novella available in the Burning Up
anthology, I was totally hooked. I adored Mad Machen and Ivy. The secondary characters and love story totally had me hooked (er..review to come, someday).
I couldn’t wait to read The Iron Duke
. A full length novel set in the same world, featuring characters I’d already gotten to know? I couldn’t wait.
It was Amazing! I adored it. It wasn’t always easy to read – neither character is an easy one. But boy was it fabulous. I think every single one of you needs to try it.
So today I’m here to extend the love to you. I have seven (7) copies of each book to giveaway. If you’d like to be entered to win one, leave a comment on this post telling me which one you want and why. Contest ends Saturday, Oct 2 at 11:59 pm.
Just for kicks and giggles, I’ll enter you twice if you post about this contest on your blog, Twitter, MySpace, Facebook or another social media site. Just leave a link in the comments.

I would love to get Burning Up as I love anthology introductions to new authors. That way if I like Meljean’s story in it I can go ahead and buy Iron Duke 😀
I want this book (Iron Duke) for the cover! Ok not only the cover I love Meljean’s work but the cover is just plan hot.

I’m drooling over the Iron Duke! Why do I want it? OMG because Meljean is a fabulous author and I love everything she writes! 🙂

I would like to win Burning Up. I love all of those authors! Thanks.
I’d love to be entered for the Burning Up anthology… It’ll give me a chance to get a taste of Meljean’s steampunk romance. I love anthologies because the stories are shorter and allow me to read them even when I’m busy.

Oh, my gosh, I would love, love LOVE to have a copy of The Iron Duke! I have had this book on my to-be-bought list from the first time I read the blurb! Fabulous contest!
Both books look to be something new for me. I always enjoy reading outside of my customary genre. I would love to read them.
I would love a copy of The Iron Duke I have heard such wonderful things about it and Meljean!

Thanks

I would love to win Iron Duke because after reading the excerpt, I can’t stop thinking about getting my hands on it!
Thanks
I would love to receive the Iron Duke (I have purchased Burning Up) as I do not want to wait any longer than I have to.
Thanks for the generous drawing.
Regards, Ruth (CO)
Hm, I think the blog ate my comment.
Ok new try.
Would love to win the Iron DUke cos I hear it’s awesome, and I may not have read more than 3 steampunk books but they are great
I’d love to win Burning Up just because it has a Singh story in it. I like the other authors too, but I just love Singh…
I would like to win The Iron Duke, I’ve been wanting to read it since i first heard about it. I love steampunk!! 🙂

I don’t think I’ve ever read steampunk but it sounds like something I’d enjoy. I’d love to read the novella in Burning Up since it is new to me.
sorry, I don’t twitter!
But but but… how can we choose?
*distress*
Okay, Burning Up–’cause it’s four authors right there.
I would love to win a copy of The Iron Duke. Her story in the Burning Up anthology was my introduction to steampunk. I could get on board with this genre.
I want The Iron Duke! Cause it looks awesome and it’s one of my most wanted..and I have the other one already 😀
I would love to have a copy of Burning Up—-because I’ve never read Steampunk.
Since I picked up a copy of “Burning Up” yesterday, I would prefer a copy of “The Iron Duke” if I win.
I tweeted about the contest here: http://twitter.com/FredTownWard/status/25822009759
The Iron Duke! Because it’s steampunk and sounds amazing. I’ve never read anything steampunk related so this would be a good way to start.
I’d like Burning Up.
I would love to win Burning Up because I love Nalini Singh and I haven’t had a chance to buy this book yet.
I would love to win The Iron Duke! I’ve got (and already devoured) her short in Burning Up, and am anxiously awaiting Oct 5th.
I’d like THE IRON DUKE!
I’ve already read Burning Up and the novella preceding The Iron Duke is amazing. 🙂
Since Burning Up is the next book on my TBR pile, I’ll choose The Iron Duke. Thanks for the great giveaway.
Gosh, how to chose? I love the cover of “The Iron Duke” but “Burning Up” sounds good, too. “Iron Duke”, it is. As I haven’t read any steampunk romance (just YA and watched some anime), I’m interested in this book. Thanks!
ironss[at]gmail.com
It’s Meljean Brook, that’s why. I adore her books. I can’t wait to read her books. Her guardian series is the best! I really, really want to read her Steampunk series
I’m torn. Should I start with the shortie or just dive in head first? I think I’ll dive. I’ve heard wonderful things about The Iron Duke.
I posted about the contest on my blog.
http://brenaereads.blogspot.com/2010/09/giveaway-over-at-book-binge.html
I would love to read both books! I have not read Meljean Brook (yet). Would love to start with a book thats so highly recommended 🙂
I would love to read The Iron Duke since I have heard so many wonderful comments about it all around the web, but I would be happy with either one!
And, if I don’t win, both will go on my To Buy list
Thanks for the giveaway

YAY! Ever since reading the Burning Up Anthology, I have been dying to get my hands on The Iron Duke. I know this book is going to rock my socks, and Meljean is absolutely amazing!!
minnchica(dot)bookpusher(at)gmail.com
Burning Up..I want any book that has both Brook and Singh in it.
Would love to have either of these books. I am dying to read Mel’s steampunk book but the then again the other has Mel and Nalini. So I’d considered myself truly lucky to win either of them.
I want The Iron Duke because I read the chapter from it in Burning Alive and it was so intriguing.
I would love to get The Iron Duke please – I want to read about them racing across zombie-infested wastelands!

I’ve heard great things about The Iron Duke. I’ve not read Steampunk before but I’m thinking that this one might be my first.
My first introduction to steampunk genre was gail carriger’s soulless (the parasol protectorate) and loved it.. I am just getting started and would love to add this to my collection. Added to this, it is written by meljean brook.So I know for sure it is going to be good…
Thanks for the giveaway.

Oh wow, I’d love either book, but the one I’m dying to read is The Iron Duke. I love Steampunk and have enjoyed all the books in this genre I’ve read so far. I’ve been hearing really great things about The Iron Duke, so I can’t wait to read it.
Barbed1951(at)aol(dot)com
Oh my god! I want Iron Duke!! I just bought Burning Up yesterday. Amazing timing! I have a huuuuge crush on Brook. Its been a long time since I had my fix! Just eagerly waiting for her book to be released!
Oh yes, I want the Iron Duke even more after reading Burning Up. I wanted it anyway because I’m a Meljean fan and interested in the steampunk genre, too.

I just bought Burning Up and will be reading it this weekend so I’m dying to get my hands on The Iron Duke. Thanks for sponsoring the contest.
I want Iron Duke! I read Burning UP and it was awesome! Now I want to read Iron Duke. Meljean Brook is my favorite author. Just loveeee her books.
I would love to win the Iron Duke, because Ms. Brook totally hooked me on her new series with her story in the anthology. I even did a review on my blog of it.
marlenebreakfield(at)yahoo(dot)com
I would love to read Burning Up since this anthology holds the beginning of Brook’s journey into steampunk. I’m a steampunk newbie and would really like to give it a try. annhonATaolDOTcom
I would love to read Iron Duke because I just finished Burning Up and I’m hooked. Like, white knuckling it until the release…
I so want The Iron Duke. I’ve read an excerpt from Burning Up and it was fantastic, but I want the full-length book. I’ve really enjoyed every steam-punk novel I’ve read.
I would love to win The Iron Duke. I stumbled upon Burning Up a few months ago, and fell in love with both Meljean Brook, and steampunk.
I would love to win _The Iron Duke_ because I’ve seen so much about it, and it seems like it would be a great read.
I am dying to read the Iron Duke, because this new world of Meljean Brook is just as kickass as her Guardians one, and I’ve read everything else published by her.
I too am so pumped to read The Iron Duke– I love steampunk! However, I love anthologies so I’d be excited to read that too:)
I would love a copy of The Iron Duke. I am intrigued by the plot of this story.
Woot! May I please be entered for The Iron Duke? Thanks for the great contest.
I’d love to win a copy of Burning Up. I have a copy, but I’d love to gift one to my dear friend here in Germany who loves to read, as much as I do.
Then I could introduce her to the wonderful, fabulous, fantastic Meljean Brook. I am sure she will start glomming!!!
The Iron Duke is already on it’s way to me.

My choice would be Burning Up, because it has four stories that sound fabulous! 🙂
I just finished the prequel and now I’m on tenterhooks waiting for the Iron Duke! I must have it! And I am not proud, I’ll also tweet about it!
I would love to read Iron Duke. I love steampunk and I am curious on Meljean’s take on steampunk romance.
I really want to read Iron Duke because it sounds awesome! And, well, it’s Meljean Brook! Nuff said. Thanks for a chance to win!
Would love to check out Iron Duke because I’ve never read anything steampunk. Thanks for the giveaway.
If it’s open to international people, I would love either, but particularly the Iron Duke. I’ve been waiting on tenterhooks.
Would love to get a copy of the Iron Duke in my hot little hands….soooo looking forward to this one!
I’d love to read The Iron Duke. Thanks for the chance!

I never even heard of the term “steampunk” before and like you I read the novella in the anthology and just knew I had to read The Iron Duke as soon as it comes out.
So thanks for holding the contest!!

I would like to read “Burning Up”. It would give me the same exposure as it did you with the first novella. If I were as hooked as you became with it I’m sure that it would quickly make Meljean Brook an addition to my addiction authors list.
Oh wonderful contest! I think I’d really, really like to read THE IRON DUKE cause I have heard many, many good things about it this far. But of course I also want BURNING UP… *sigh* how’s a girl to choose?
