Stabenow, author of the Edgar-winning Kate Shugak series…masterfully traces the twisting life of Alaska State Trooper Liam Campbell in this series debut…Happily, this much mayhem has rarely been in surer literary hands.
—Publishers Weekly
…This wonderful series start from the Edgar Award-winning author of the Kate Shugak mysteries (Killing Grounds, LJ 3/1/98) is full of raucous action, complicated characters, evocative scenery, and inventive plot. Highly recommended.
—Library Journal
…This debut novel in a new series from genre veteran Stabenow (author of the Kate Shugak series) offers compelling reading. The mystery is hard to solve, the plot fast moving and well organized, the Arctic landscape stunning, and the characters vivid and sympathetic. A series to watch.

Technical Footnotes
1 See Amazon’s instructions for emailing books to your device. Or download a Kindle Reading application for Windows, Mac, Android and other platforms.
2 $1.16 is the minimum price Amazon allows me to set, sorry! If you buy it from Amazon, your bookmarks, highlights, and notes will be synced, so there is an advantage.
3 Really, you can’t download from the iBookstore using your browser.
4 See Apple’s iBooks FAQ. You’ll need iTunes 9.2 or greater.
5 Here are some helpful links for Nook, Stanza, and Sony Reader owners. You could also download Adobe Digital Editions for your desktop computer.
I don’t have any of those items to download to. Is there any way I can download to the computer?
Thanks anyway, Dana. Have a great holiday.
Marian,
You can download the free kindle app for your laptop and then d/l the kindle version of the book. I’m sure there are other ways as well but that was what lept to mind. Good luck

Dana, this is truly awesome.
Thanks and happy holidays to you.

Question – I already have all 4 Liam Campbell books on my Kindle – it’s the biggest reason I went with the Kindle instead of the Nook. (HAD to have Liam Campbell with me at all times ) Were these not “official” versions? I have to say, they do have some fairly obvious mistakes in them, for example, Rebecca Hanover’s husband’s name changes partway through as does the name of Lydia Tompkins’ daughter, Betsy, and there are more…. Just wanting to know if these new ones are the same or should I download what is just being released – I’d buy them again for more accurate versions. Glad to see Liam being published again! More, please??
Susan, thanks for answering Marian’s question before I had a chance to. [grin] FYI, my guys at GDP have updated the footnotes. I think the first footnote now includes a link for Marian.
Dear Dana:
Totally blown away! Just got an iPad and I’m delighted to have the first of many Stabenow titles on my iBookshelf.
I must admit, I have missed Liam.
‘Scuse me, gotta go READ!
Erma
Awesome! Can’t wait to read it! Thank you very much and have a very Merry Christmas!
Thanks so much, Erma!
Terrific! But…can’t seem to get the mobi to connect to my Kindle so may have to wait to download from amazon. Thanks a bunch, can’t wait!
@Angela The main reason I took that edition of the Liam novels down from the Kindle was because there were errors. I uploaded them myself and evidently something was lost in translation. I have no idea if it was my fault or Amazon’s, but I got one complaint and on the strength of it I made them all disappear. I didn’t want anyone to have a bad experience reading them. I’m sorry you did.
These new editions are the product of a new venture between me and my webmaster. I’m hoping this experience will be good for everyone.
Bright Solstice and Good Yule. What a nice surprise! Thank you very much. Best present I could get…books!
Just received my Kindle today, Dec. 21. Looking forward to downloading “Fire and Ice” from Amazon as it sounds like the best way to go. Thanks, Dana, for the info, and a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!
Dana: I forwarded the Roadhouse Report e-mail to my iPad e-mail account just to see how smoothly the download went. Holy Steve Jobs! I clicked on the links, iBooks loaded, and up popped the Fire and Ice page. I especially like that FREE icon. I didn’t time it exactly, but I’d guess the whole process took under two minutes. Thanks for the gift. You’re now in the 21st century, ma’am.
Have a wonderful Christmas and a sincere thank you for the book. Liam is a great companion!
The guys are going to love your comment, Michael, thanks! GailR, Rose, Cea, my pleasure!
Hey, we’re getting a little press for this! Who knew?? Check it out on Alaska Dispatch (http://alaskadispatch.com/culture/books/7905-free-for-christmas-fire-and-ice-by-dana-stabenow) and Alaska Business (http://www.akbizmag.com/alaska-news-list/8186-a-free-christmas-gift-from-dana-stabenow.html).
Somebody plugged it on Goodreads, too.
Hi Dana
I just got a Kindle for Christmas and the 1st book I dowloaded was “Fire & Ice” – Thank You and Merry Christmas.
Cass
Outstanding! Thanks, Cass, and Merry Christmas backatcha!
I saw your announcement earlier this week and thought how nice for those lovely folks who own those reader things… then Santa brought me a Kindle much to my surprise! After some futzing around trying to connect wirelessly (baffled by my own network password, oops) I just downloaded F&I to take with me to the airport today. Took only a couple minutes, really appreciate the link to the Amazon page too. Thanks a bunch Dana!!
I am delighted to be first on your new Kindle, Mary, and you’re most welcome!
Thank you very much for the free book.
Hope you like it!
I got a Kindle for Christmas. Best gift, ever!!! (other than gift cards to various bookstores). I just downloaded Fire and Ice. First Stabenow book to go into the e-book format. I’m sure there will be more. Thanks!!
Delighted you chose Fire and Ice as your first e-book, Laura, what a compliment. Thanks!
I have been unable to download the free Fire and Ice novel by the glorious Ms. Stabenow on my iPhone. Any suggestions? The iBook store seems only to have one Dana Stabenow.
I’ll forward your comment to Gere Donovan, Linda, dunno what’s going on there. I’ve got it on mine. (And no one’s ever called me “glorious” before. Now I feel…radiant this morning. [grin])
Linda, send us an email (press@geredonovan.com). If all else fails, we can just email it to you. But what you’re describing sounds strange, since I’m looking at Fire and Ice in the Apple iBookstore on my iPhone … Along with at least 10 other Stabenow titles.
Love your work.
Thank you so much, Joan.
