My novel The Death Trip (http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/6095) is always free on smashwords. (It's 99 cents on Kindle (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002XULHAW) with slightly better formatting for mobi and wireless download.) It's gotten good reviews and a lot of downloads, so I'm hoping that the people who enjoy it will check out my other work.Here's the description: The Simulated Life Elapsed Process aka The Death Trip is touted as a pharmaceutical alternative to end of life pain and suffering -- a dream state that makes the user's last minutes feel like years spent living the perfect existence. But is this one-way ride really the paradise promised by Panacium Inc?The Death Trip "comfort care for the dying" or something more nefarious? Some say there's even a link to the newest party drug.After the death of his beloved grandmother, Chuck decides to investigate and soon finds himself torn between two women -- the activist who suspects a dark agenda and the beautiful MD who helped create the process.Here's my favorite review from smashwords:Review by: C Koeber on Dec. 01, 2009 : star star star star starExcellent story on a compelling subject. The story is eerily believable, and the author clearly has a solid knowledge of end of life dilemma. I have worked in the hospice field for many, many years and found this book riveting, funny and poignant. Not usually a sci-fi fan, but thoroughly enjoyed this. Five stars!(If you enjoy the free read, please check out my novel, Loisaida at Kindle (http://www.amazon.com/Loisaida-New-York-Story-ebook/dp/B003VYC7N0) or Smashwords (http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/19153).What I'd also absolutely love is if you want to comment here about The Death Trip or Loisaida.
