Secret Dead Men: the eBook

Until recently, people who wanted to read Secret Dead Men had only three choices. Pay $30, pay $15.95, or be related to me.

Now $30 is a serious chunk of change. That's at least two six packs of beer and a sensual rubdown by someone wearing too much mascara in a bad neighborhood.

Fifteen bucks ain't no picnic, either. You could buy a decent poster of The Hoff with that kind of money.

And the third option? I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.

But brothers and sisters, there is a fourth option. Thanks to the folks at Fictionwise.com, Secret Dead Men... the very novel David Montgomery called "offbeat, quirky and confident" ... and Publisher's Weekly called "muddled" ... well, that bit of mystery entertainment is now yours for the low, low price of five bucks and change.

Thanks to the magic of ebooks, you can download a piece o' Swierczynski on the cheap. Simply point your web browsers to this handy ordering page.

(Note: If anybody actually does this, let me know how it turns out. I haven't seen the ebook version yet. For all I know, it's written in Korean.)
