Giveaway: Drood, by Dan Simmons

Drood, by Dan Simmons US CoverFollowing Michael's glowing review of Drood, it seems a giveaway is apropos! From the mouth of the man himself: "This is definitely one of my top reads in 2010".

One catch for this giveaway - your entry MUST contain a snarky comment - doesn't have to be a good one, it just has to be there. I would not have to be so strict, but the last few weeks have seen a steady decline in snark that is just totally unacceptable... Good luck!

Yesterday evening I went together with my wife to cinema. We watched Sherlock Holmes starring Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law. We both liked it.
Every picture of London reminded me of Drood. And the funny thing is that they mentioned Wilkie Collins and Charles Dickens. Don't worry about the number of pages.... Just start reading.

Oops! You don't own a copy of Drood?
Then it is high time to take part in the giveaway!.
