Today's the day! The eclipse is right on time!

It's official! Late Eclipses [Amazon]|[Mysterious Galaxy] is now available from fine bookstores everywhere in North America, and from many fine bookstores elsewhere in the world! HOORAY!

Here are a few things to help you celebrate:

Firstly, there are gorgeous Late Eclipses wallpapers and icons available now at my website! Dress your computer in its Toby-related finery, and enjoy Tara's increasingly incredible work every time you make a post or minimize your active windows. Wallpapers and icons from previous books are also available.

I've done a shiny new interview over at the Qwillery, and you can win a copy of Late Eclipses! Dust off your Shakespeare and get ready for a good time, or at least the kind of time that involves hearing about my writing process in faintly silly terms.

Because people ask a lot: every sale counts, and if it's a legit sale (IE, not from a guy in a trenchcoat standing behind the 7-11), I get paid for it. In order of "how helpful is this," it goes brick and mortar stores first, because a sale from them often leads to a re-order; online retailers second, since again, they have to restock when they run out; and ebooks third, as those never need to be replenished. Take two, they're small.

Finally, I am going to be at Borderlands Books this afternoon, doing a swing-through stock-signing. If you want a signed book, and will be unable to make my March 19th Borderlands event, you can call the store and place an order any time after 12:00 PST (when they open). I'm also willing to sign the first three books, Feed, Zombiesque, and Tales From the Ur-Bar (also coming out today).

Happy bookday to me!

I'll hit our local orderer-of-overseas-awesome bookshop this afternoon and pester them if they don't already have it (they had the last three, so if they don't have it, they'll be getting it).

Happy bookday indeed!

I got it at Of Science and Swords today ! I was amazed !
Normally I hear about good books on the net, then wait weeks/months before they actually appear in Oz ...

OMG YAY that's where I was heading. Didn't make it (I got sick) but I can go on Saturday. Did they have multiple copies?

They didn't have it because they SOLD OUT because it was SO POPULAR and they're already ORDERING MORE. I've special-ordered a copy and hopefully wil have it soon.

Forgive my capslock, but I am excited :D
