Free Book - Home of the Brave

Jeffry Hepple's Home of the Brave ($2.99 Kindle), the third in his Gone for Soldiers series, is finally being released, after a tussle with UPS, who lost his edited manuscript with the changes he wanted to incorporate before publication. For readers of this blog, he has created an exclusive coupon you can use to purchase a free copy of book, in any of several a DRM-free formats at Smashwords. In addition, the announcement for the book is only being seen here this weekend, so you can be one of the first to read it, before it is posted/announced in the Amazon and other Kindle book forums. Feel free to share the link to this post with anyone you think might want to read the book, but please don't share the discount code in other forums (it helps him track his sales).

Jeff's book are heavy on historical detail, which I consider a plus. You could start reading with Gone For a Soldier ($4.00 Kindle or Smashwords - see below for coupon on this one, also) and Land of the Free ($2.00 Kindle or Smashwords), the first two in the series, or start with this one as a stand-alone novel without feeling you have missed too much backstory.

Book Description
The Van Buskirk family becomes embroiled in the Texas Revolution and the Mexican War when Thomas resigns his commission and purchases a land grant from Stephen F. Austin.

Click HERE to find the book on Smashwords and use coupon code EJ93F during checkout for the discount, valid until the end of February. Although Jeff didn't ask (he's happy you are going to read his book), I'd ask that those who do read it consider adding a small review on either Amazon or Smashwords (links are all above). It doesn't have to be an opus, just a few sentences on what you enjoyed about the book. If you pick up Gone for A Soldier, you can use coupon code GH98N to get $2 off - the entire trilogy then costs you only $4.00.

2/21 Update: Here are some updated coupon codes, that expire at month end (but use the one above to get Home of the Brave for free).
