Competition: Win 1 of 10 copies of City of Bones (Harry Bosch) from author Michael Connelly
City of Bones
To help celebrate the launch of the pilot episode of ‘Bosch‘ coming to Lovefilm this month, we’re giving away 10 copies of ‘City of Bones’ from author Michael Connelly, on which the pilot is based.
When the bones of a boy are found scattered in the Hollywood Hills, Harry Bosch is drawn into a case that brings up dark memories from his past… Unearthing hidden stories, he finds the child’s identity and reconstructs his fractured life, determined that he won’t be forgotten. At the same time, a new love affair with a female cop begins to blossom – until a stunningly blown mission leaves him in more trouble than ever before. The investigation races to a shocking conclusion and leaves Bosch on the brink of an unimaginable decision…
The new pilot episode is written by Michael himself along with Eric Overmeyer (The Wire) and stars Titus Welliver (Argo, The Good Wife), Lance Reddick (The Wire, Fringe) Scott Wilson (The Walking Dead) and Jamie Hector (The Wire).
The full episode will be free to view on Lovefilm in early February, which you’ll be able to watch whether you have a subscription or not. If the pilot is to go on and become a full-fledged 12-episode series it needs viewer support. Once you’ve watched the episode, Lovefilm have a quick survey and a 5-star rating system for you to complete at the end. Lovefilm will make their final decision based on your consumer feedback.

Help! Having watched the Bosch pilot on Amazon, I wanted to re-read City of Bones, but my husband won’t let me! He has three autographed copies of the book, but each one is completely encased in a cellophane-like wrapper, and he has forbidden me from opening any of them. I hope you will consider sending one of the 10 books to me.
I want to win as I need to keep my other half supplied so that I can spend his money on other things.

Love your books I discovered them when I visited my son in Baku Azerbaijan

Are you going to sign it? I still have the paperback and that would give me two copies. I started reading Michael with two random choices. Then I knew I had to start at the beginning. Now I have to wait year to year. But I love Harry Bosch!!!!
I want to Win a copy of City of Bones and here’s why.
Every Winter I pick a new author to read. Last August I watched the Lincoln Lawyer and thought WOW! That was an awesome movie. So Michael Connelly was the author I picked. I got on the internet and looked up all his novels to date. I started looking for any and all of his books via the internet, library, thrift stores etc…..and was able to find all of them that he has written.. Most of them I was able to purchase so I have a lot of them in my personal library. The City of Bones I am reading again just to refresh my memory. In my opinion Michael Connelly, You are the one of the best authors I have read to date, and believe me I read a lot.
I would love to win any of your books. But winning a book that you have picked to run as a TV pilot and future TV Show would make me very happy. I am already dreaming up ways to display it in my library!!
I’d love to win this book. I’m a big fan of Harry Bosch! Thanks for the opportunity!!
I don’t tweet as I have no idea how to but I have a goodreads page.
I would love to win this as I think the ‘Bones’ series is great even though I have only read one.
Thank you for the chance.
Tweeted 🙂
Would love to win!
Simon.
I have all of the Bosch novels, accompanying cd’s, etc. . .and would love to add this script to my collection . “Everyone counts, or no one counts.”
I really want to win!
I don’t know how to tweet or retweet but I can whistle! I love the Harry Bosch stories/series and I am right there with him in the car, his house, on his adventures and never get enough of him. I really would enjoy winning a book…that would be the first book win in my life!
I really, really, really want to win this! I am a HUGE Michael Connelly fan and this would be an amazing milestone in my life!
I would love to win!! I’m a huge Harry Bosch fan!!
Michael Connelly is my favorite author, I have read all of his books. I would love to win a copy of City of Bones.
Wow, what a great prize. I hope I’m a winner! I’m such a bid fan of Harry’s.
I want to win because I’m a rabid fan of Michael Connelly’s and his creation, Harry Bosch. I’m foaming at the mouth waiting for this pilot to air!!
Michael Connelly is our favourite author and we have his complete set of books that he has written. We met Michael and had our picture taken with him at The Sleuth of Baker Street book store in 2001 after he signed 9 of his first edition books for us. He teasingly referred to us as his “cousins”. We were so thrilled to have met him in person. Will always remember that. It would be so awesome to win one of these books. We’re are looking forward to seeing the pilot. Love… Cathy and Bob Connelly
“City of bones” is the only Michael Connelly book I don have. It would be incredibly nice to finish my colection with a bang.???? can’t wait for the pilot.
I want to win because from Michael Connelly’s first book (The Black Echo) I have been telling Vermonters that they need to purchase and read all of Connelly’s books.
I Deserve to win because a) I am agreeing to the rules of the competition.
b) I have an awesome name (and modest with it).
c) I have never read a Michael Connelly book in my life – and I like reading. Imagine how many more of his books I would read once I have read this awesome free copy. BTW didn’t he write The Lincoln Lawyer? Great film!
d) I don’t have a lot of money.
You’ve heard that there are some people who have never seen Star Wars right? Well I have never read a Michael Connelly! For shame! City of Bones could start me off on a Michael Connelly adventure .. who know where it will end …?
Would love to win…
I would love to win as Michael Connolly is one of my favourite authors, and Harry Bosch is possible one of the best characters ever created. Once I start reading one of his books I am unable to put it down – everything else gets forgotten. To win this would truly make my day.
I want to win – I have seen the previews for this show and it looks awesome, so I’d like to read up on it before it airs. PLEASE!!!!
My sister-in-law and I are huge fans. Each of us celebrated milestone birthdays this year and this would be a big treat for both of us!
I wanna WIN one of the 10 copies! Thanks. Ed
ebooks are great, but there is nothing like the printed page. it’s a great novel with a great author. i would really enjoy owning one of those ten books.
I am the number 2 but getting this book would push me into #1 fan status I just know it.
I have been addicted to Bosch for many years now… such a good addiction.
Michael .. i know I’m not in UK but it would be such a great plesaure if one of the copy of City of Bones could reach me here in France.
I am Harry Bosch’s number one fan!!!
Would love to win as I love this type of book
I read to people for a living. My lovely people have brain damage and are in varying degrees of conciousness. I am a Harry Bosch fan and I am sure my people will become just as big a fan as me when I read CITY OF BONES!! Good luck everyone.
I’ve retweeted… Bish bash Bosch!! Hopefully the gods of good luck and fortune will smile on me… would love to be a Connelly winner!
Love all Michael Connolly books, I wish they would make a movie about Bosch in the same style as the Lincoln Lawyer!!
I want to win! Please, please please. If I won I’d do a happy dance
If I don’t count then no one counts
Bosch, Bosch, Bosch I would have preferred some dosh. But Michael C’s the man for me. Can I please win a copy?
Michael Connelly is my favorite writer, Harry Bosch my favorite detective I need to win 🙂
I would love to win a copy of City of Bones. I am a Harry Bosch fan from the beginning!
Harry Bosch belongs with me. We’ve traveled so far, so many miles (I listen to unabridged in my car), been there for each other. Now it is time for Harry to come home with me.
I love you Harry.
Come home.
Best author ever, even though I have it, I’d love to win
Want to win. I’ve read every book of Connelly’s. Met him twice. He’s a great writer!
I cannot wait to see this movie. I have read all the books a few times and cherish them. I am hopeful about the drawing for the book
I’ve read and re-read my old paperback copy of City of Bones til it’s falling apart and I need a new copy!! Please?
I would love to win this please. Love Michael’s books and can’t wait for Bosch The tv show
Cue the sob story – my wife is a big Michael Connelly fan and is currently ill, requiring lots of good books to read while recuperating.
I’m not going to recite any platitudes about why I should win, but I will say this much. I myself have been an avid fan for many years of Michael, can I call him just Michael? Or do I have to go with Mr. Connelly, or should I go out on a limb and call him, greatest crime writer of all time? Well, enough with the titles and kissing ass. Seriously now, I so do want to win a copy of “City of Bones” and if you feel that I deserve one then great you are all now on my Christmas list, but if you decide that I should not be given a free copy well then…I guess no Christmas cards for any of you LOL, just kidding but seriously please pick me…Roel Cisneros avid reader and fan.
I do love grabbing a good book each night before a head to bed – it really helps me fall asleep. I have to admit I’ve not read anything by Harry Bosch yet but I would love to give it a whirl 🙂 X
oh bye the way, incase you have any confusion to as send the book, let me know, I would like to win, too cold in Colorado, just like to read,,,,,,,,,
I want to win,,,,,,duh, a no brainer,
I have been reading since I was old enough to pick up a book and I started with mystery books. My first ones were Nancy Drew. I read daily and I am hopelessly hooked on Michael Connelly’s books. I can’t put one down till I am finished. I get books at the library so I have read everyone of them they have available. I even request from other libraries ones I haven’t been able to get. My goal is to someday own all of them. Some books are not meant to read twice or three times, but Michael Connelly’s writing is so excellent I could reread all of his books. I now have an addiction!!! Thank you for the talant of writing such great stories. I haven’t read City of Bones yet so I really need it!!!!! Thank you so much and I can’t wait to see the series coming up soon!!!! I am on the edge of my seat just thinking about it!!!
I don’t watch crime dramas, rather read the books, but this one seems to be very interesting, something I could look forward to watching,
You should be pick me as I do desperate so well 😉 haha xx
I want to win
I love the stories you write…….I share them w/ many friends who thank me for sharing…they love you too!! Thank you, again, for your work, making every book you write worth every word. Thank you for your talent.

I would love to win City of Bones.. The Harry Bosch books are extremely engrossing. Can’t say I have read every book which you have wrote but my collection is ever growing.
Michael Connolly is my favourite author and Harry Bosch is my favourite character. I would love to win this book.
I would love to win this. I am a massive Michael fan and read all the Harry books on my kindle which have made my daily commute a lot more exciting. Would love to have a copy of this book to put on my bookshelf with pride.

This is one of your books that I have not read. In fact, my local library does not have it and that’s where I get most of my books. It would be nice to win it so I don’t have to drive 55 miles to buy it. Thanks for offering up 10 books and I hope my name is at the top of the list!
Oh master of words… bless me with a copy of your book.
The truth lies… with the dead.
Dawn Gaulke I would like to win the book as I have read all your books and love Harry Bosch. He reminds me of my Dad named named Harry. He was a lot like your Harry and always had a twinkle in his eye!

City of Bones was the first Michael Connelly book I read – picked at random from a selection in a ski chalet in Whistler. Inspired me to read all the previous ones on my return to UK and now I read them as they come out.
I would love to win one of these copies to give to my son-in-law. I have introduced him to Michael Connelly books and he enjoys these stories as much as I do. Thanks so much!
I’m a loser so I want to win for a change…
I want to win! I’ve been waiting for the new pilot episode of Bosch to come out and in anticipation I’ve been re-reading many of Michael Connelly’s books!
My Mum , Dad and sister all read Connelly books so I want to win to pass on a nice gift to them.
Sounds good, I would very much like to win this!
Baz
Just love Michael Connelly books
Love to win a copy because I think Michael is the god of crime and of course he shares the same name as me!
I want to win!
