Hi guys! Do you know of anyone who is interested in the following genres?

*Action /adventure
*Science fiction
*Anime
*Martial Arts
*Space Adventure
*Oriental Culture and Philosophy

If so, I have a present for you!

Basically what happened is this, for the past 2 years Ive been publishing with a certain publishing company in the U.S. My book was supposed to be released this month in U.S. but I found out some really bad things about them I didnt like and they tried to screw me over on subsidiary rights. Ok, I admit, I got royally suckered and lost a lot of money... But, live and learn! So I immediately killed the contract before they could tag my book with their ISBN number... After lots of violent persuasion and legal threats, they`ve graciously agreed to give me 500 perfectly printed and bound copies of the book.

I since Ive just purchased my own ISBN numbers and Bar codes, Ill be re-printing and self-publishing an extended version of the original book under my own name. If everything goes well, I plan on releasing in June of this year.

This being the case, I`d like to use 300 printed copies of the book I will receive as simple promotional items so I will be literally giving them away for free to anyone who is interested in reading them!

In addition to the free book, I`ll also be including a free media CD with character profiles, web links, and a RPG game based on the book which I created in RPG maker 2003! (2D, Kinda crappy but fun!)

The promotional book is 138 pages but the extended version will be around 400 pages because I`m combining the 1st and 2nd volumes of Book 1.

The books title is "Wild FIRE: Legend of the Ryukage Clans(tm)" and it is actually a six novel series. The first novel was originally split into 3 volumes due to its length but now since Im self-publishing, Ill only be splitting it into 2 volumes so the promotional book youll be receiving is actually Book 1: Volume 1.

The book is a very interesting and exciting sci-fi adventure which is actually based on the characters in my Renderosity Gallery! See below for the link.

If you`re interested in more details about the book and the storyline, please visit the Wild FIRE official website @:

http://www.ryukage.com (The HTML site is currently under construction so you`ll need ADSL or high-speed connection to access the FLASH site)

Like I said, I have 300 free copies with CDs and the offer is open to anyone whos interested so if youre up for reading a really interesting and unique story, let me know and Ill send you a copy. Be sure to invite your friends too! No scam, no purchase, no strings attached. Just read it and let me know if you enjoy it. If so, buy the rest of the series! Hehehehe... (Depending on where you live, and shipping costs, I might ask you to pay for postage tho cuz I gotta send it from Japan... Paypal is fine...)

In the meantime, Ill continue working on my website and Im currently studying MAYA so I can make some more interesting and better quality characters for site because my current characters kinda suck and I want to add lots of 3D animated movies and such to it based on my book. So feel free to give me pointers and critiques all you want cool?

Ive also created a rather successfull board/ card (Dungeons & Dragons) style game based on the book which will be available for purchase on my website once I get copies printed (and add some graphical representation to the playing cards for each attack.) So if youre interested, let me know!

Take care and hope to hear from you soon!!! (^_~)

P.S.

I should receive the books next week so I`ll be ready to start filling orders then.

ALSO, you can download a free copy of the Wild FIRE RPG game from my website under the "GAMES" section. The Game still isnt complete and has lots of bugs though but I will be updating it regularly once this book things is done. Its just for fun and to introduce you to the characters anywayz. (Borrowed lots of stuff from other RPG Maker Games and download sites so I cant really take credit for anything in there except the storyline, layout and the animated movies I will put in there later...^_^; But its fun anywayz so try it out!)
