Description: Long ago, when the worlds were one...

So begins the Tale, the ancestral legend Bron's family has guarded for a thousand years. Once, they were the keepers of the Stone, the most sacred object on earth, from which all the powers of Mind are drawn. But when the conflict between Mind and Hand split the worlds apart, the Stone was seized by an ambitious sorcerer. To keep the new world from contamination, he created rigid Limits circumscribing which tools might be made and which knowledge might be pursued�laws brutally enforced by a group of Guardians known as the Arm of the Stone.

For centuries, Bron's family has concealed the secret of its heritage. But when Bron's brother invents a new kind of plow�an unpardonable heresy in the world of the Guardians�the Arm of the Stone reaches in once again to tear them apart. Fleeing for his life, Bron vows revenge. To strike the Guardians down, he will become a Guardian himself. But Bron cannot know how much that choice will change him.

They're also serializing the entirety of L. Neil Smith's vampire romantic suspense-sounding novel @ the rate of 3 downloadable chapters per month, according to the big box on the front page.

The code DIR06579 also gives you 50% of all their Direct Publisher's Channel books as listed on their website.

Looks like this will bypass Amazon and B&N's websites and purchase directly from them. I hope Amazon doesn't lower their prices to match them.

Hm, I couldn't get the DIR06579 code to work for the freebie book, but 9992593 went through. You CAN use the DIR06579 code to get the sequel to The Arm of the Storm for $2.12, though!
