Contest the Second: The Polls are Closed

[lagilman]

And it is proven that I have two kinds of readers: lazy (didn't bother to enter) and obsessive (nailed details even I had forgotten!)

Eastern/Central winner: symilie and alfreda89 [tie]
Mountain/Pacific winner: no winner
Outside US winner: shui_long

A number of people got four answers right, but missed either 2 or 5.

I would have loved to send a copy to Anonymous, who also nailed it, but s/he never identified his/herself.... :-(

THE ANSWERS:

1. What what happened to Wren's mentor?
-- he wizzed (went crazy from current) and disappeared.
2. How can you identify a demon?
-- dark red eyes
3. What are five breeds of fatae specifically referenced in this series?
-- demon, rock-dragons, sea-serpents [okay, we don't see them until FREE FALL] griffins, nissanni, dryads, piskies, loup-garoux, fauns, gnomes, omaa-nih.... and more even I can't remember!
4. Where did Wren and Sergei first have sex?
-- a motel room in Umbria, Italy
5. What is Wren’s father’s name?
-- sir not appearing in any books (her mother doesn't know/remember)

Congrats to the winners, and send me your mailing details, please!

And I didn't enter because I was sure that #5 must appear somewhere if you asked about it, but I just forgot it. *headdesk* Sneaky!

Enh, would've gotten #4 wrong anyway. *g*

*bounce bounce* But when can I buy a copy, since I am doomed to not win?

Rumor has it Amazon and BN.com are both shipping copies early, bad them.... (but if you can wait a few more days, your local bookstore should have it for you, too)

Damn. I didn't know 2 and wasn't convinced I knew 3. As for the last one... Ok, I'm better than I thought. I kept thinking "but.. but... we don't know!!"

I so need to learn to just guess.

Oh and you owe me a price tag. :P

I read Valerie the questions last night. She knew 1, 2, and 3 right off the bat, said she'd have to think a bit about 4, and didn't know from 5.

On the other hand, her copy of the book was pre-ordered from Amazon (pre-orders carry an extra 5% discount), so entering/winning wasn't a big deal. Still, I was impressed (and a bit confused) when she instantly said "he wizzed" when I read her question one. ;)
