T-minus 0 days to DEADLINE.

August 1st, 2014.

Kellis-Amberlee unified the world in a way that nothing had ever unified it before, or ever would again. Cities burned. Nations died. Tokyo, Manhattan, Bombay, London, all of them fell before an enemy that could not be stopped, because it came from within; because it was already inside. Some escaped. Some lived. All carried the infection deep inside their bodies, deep inside their very bones. They carried it with them, and it lived, too.

The Rising was finally, fully underway. Mothers mourned their children. Orphans wailed alone in the night. Death ruled over all, horrible and undying. And nothing, it seemed, would ever make it end.

RISE UP WHILE YOU CAN.

I gots it...and Feed, too, b'c ladydrakaina stood next to me at Powell's and said I had to do so, so I did. By the way, Powell's (big downtown Portland main store) had Deadline nicely displayed in at least three (3) different spots - 2 rows of full cover facing out in regular alpha spot in horror, 2 rows of full cover facing out under New Release endcap (still in Golden Room), and yet another row of full covers displayed on yet another New Genre endcap. So if'n folks cannot find it, they just ain't looking!

Now to finish up TP's Lords & Ladies so I can sit down and FEED properly w/no distractions (other than VooDoo donuts & hot tea, which're really accoutrements to good reading rather than distractions from same ;-)
Yay Powells! If I still lived in Portland I absolutely would have gotten my copy there. As it is, I did at least pick up DEADLINE - had to request it because it wasn't on the shelf yet, but they *did* have it in the back - and FEED, because I'd read a library copy of the latter so wanted to have My Very Own. :-)

Happy Launch Day!
