The release date for Copper Centurion has been announced! Click to learn about prize winning opportunities!


Greetings to all my readers and fans!!Copper Centurion 800 Cover reveal and Promotional

I am extremely excited to announce that Copper Centurion will be released on May 1, 2013. This full-length novel has roughly 80,000 and will be on sale for $3.99 on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, the iStore, Kobo, and all other platforms through Smashwords. There will also be a print version available on the same day.

I am currently looking for the following…

  1. 7-10 people willing to read ARC copies of the novel.
  2. 10-15 people willing to host me for a blog tour in May.
  3. 2-3 people to be on my ‘street team’ – requesting the book at your local library, leaving the promotional posters at the local independent book store/library if possible, generally promoting it on twitter, goodreads, etc.

If you’d like to do any of these (or just want to know more) email me at daniel(dot)ottalini(at)gmail.com.

If you’re nice enough to help me make this book release a blast, you’ll get some awesomely exciting prizes.

  1. An electronic copy of both Copper Centurion and Brass Legionnaire (If you don’t already have the first one)
  2. A digital arts booklet featuring all the illustrations from the series (so far) plus never-before seen concept designs and rough sketches.
  3. Your name in a drawing to win a Nook/Kindle (Haven’t decided yet!)

This will be done on a first come, first serve basis, so sign up for your slot today!

What about signed copies, you say? Well, I’ve got TWO give-aways running. Each one has three signed paperback copies of the novel available for you to win! You can even enter both. (If you win both, I reserve the right to only send you one signed copy!)

So either comment on this post of mine from earlier,

Or check out my Goodreads Giveaway and sign up there as well!

You have just ONE day left to enter and win for both contests!

Here are the links below to each book.

Thanks again for all of my readers and fans out there. The journey started because of me, but it really finished because of your encouragement and positive attitudes. I love you all, and I’ll continue to blog about my adventures in life and self publishing. And yes, there will be more Brass Legionnaire novels to come. Copper Centurion (Due out sometime next Spring) will be even longer and more chock full of airship flying roman legionnaires.

Thanks again! Be sure to subscribe to the blog, Like me on Facebook or follow me on twitter! I keep it pretty interesting, and don’t spam you with a million for sale ads. Hurray!
