mg"> Thanks for mentioning that the bookshops may supply earlier - I will visit Dymocks and ask nicely if they could please supply my pre-ordered copy as soon as their shipment of 100 arrives, to inform me the minute they hit the shop floor, special delivery etc. Despite the obvious anticipation and excitement - I will also exercise patience and self control. One must make the whole process joyful.
A launch at Dymocks sounds brilliant...

I hate bookstores. I walk in there today and come out with six books. Blergh.
I should've asked about Blood and Memory. I was too busy gasbagging with the bloke behind the register. Whoops. So June 1st? *puppy dog eyes* You think you could do a special visit to Melbourne for moi? I would come!! Pleeeeease??
*mumurs* I wonder if Fiona would be interested in coming over for Book Week...

YAY!!
I asked at work today and the computer said June but i think if i go tomorrow and have a search i may just find it out the back. That would be right when i bought some books today! Grrr. Maybe you could give one as a prize for the fantasy club competition??? I hope you will be coming and doing a launch at Borders.

They have arrived. Its Wednesday and Angus & Roberts had a stash of 30 books in the Rundle Street store delivered today -so I bought one today and had to hold on until the bus trip home to start the read. Ever wish that the bus trip was slow. Managed to read the first 2 chapters on the bus and ....
