Next up in our giveaways of some of our favorite 2016 books: The Fifth Season & The Obelisk Gate, the first two installments of N.K. Jemisin’s Broken Earth Trilogy.

The Obelisk Gate came out this year, but we didn’t want to start you in the middle of the series, so we’re giving three Book Riot readers both books in the series (the final installment, The Stone Sky, is coming out in late 2017).

Three winners will be drawn randomly from the entrants and will then be emailed for their physical mailing address. The giveaway is open to U.S. and Canada and entries will be accepted until December 17th at midnight eastern.

This giveaway is sponsored by Knopf, publisher of Prince Lestat & The Realms of Atlantis by Anne Rice.

From Anne Rice, conjurer of the beloved best sellers Interview with the Vampire and Prince Lestat, an ambitious and exhilarating new novel of utopian vision and power.

At the novel’s center: the vampire Lestat de Lioncourt, hero, leader, inspirer, irresistible force, irrepressible spirit, battling (and ultimately reconciling with) a strange otherworldly form that has somehow taken possession of Lestat’s undead body and soul. This ancient and mysterious power and unearthly spirit of vampire lore has all the force, history, and insidious reach of the unknowable Universe.

From now through January, Book Riot is giving away some of our favorite books of 2016.

Up first is one of our favorite mysteries of 2016: IQ by Joe Ide.

Author Joe Ide used his own history, growing up as an Asian kid in South Central Los Angeles, to create IQ, a new mystery set in a tough L.A. neighborhood about Isaiah Quintabe, nicknamed IQ,who is determined to help find justice and solve unsolved crimes the police don’t care about. Quintabe is inspired by Sherlock Holmes and the book has already been compared to a West Coast version of The Wire, so perhaps it’s not surprising that the television rights to IQ have already sold.

We’ve got three copies to giveaway to U.S. and Canada residents. Go here to enter for a chance to win, or just click the image below. Good luck!

We have 10 copies of Jason Diamond’s Searching for John Hughes to give away to 10 Riot readers!

For as long as Jason Diamond can remember, he’s been infatuated with John Hughes’ movies. From the antics in National Lampoon’s Vacation to the teenage angst in The Breakfast Club and Pretty in Pink to the insanely clever Home Alone, Jason could not get enough. And so the seed was planted in his mind that he should write a biography of his favorite filmmaker. It didn’t matter to Jason that he had no qualifications, training, platform, or direction. Thus went the years-long, delusional, earnest, and assiduous quest to reach his goal. What he did get was a coming-of-age story that fills the pages of this unconventional, hilarious memoir.

Along with nobles and commoners, Fletcher endures grueling lessons that will prepare him to serve as a Battlemage in the Empire’s war against the savage Orcs.
