It took 300 Spartans to defeat the Persians. Into the Valley of Death rode the 600 in the Charge of the Light Brigade. But all I'm asking is a mere 200 of you and your closest friends to purchase your copy of Crispin Guest's newest adventure, TROUBLED BONES, the week of its release. That's October 11 through October 17. Not that it's a bad thing to preorder it. Or even buy it the weeks and months after. But if at least 200 show up to buy it that first week of release, it makes a smashing impression with the Powers That Be. And we want to make a good impression.
So remember, the week of October 11- October 17, 200 of you should rise up, go to your nearest indie bookstore, Barnes & Noble, online venue like Amazon--print or Kindle or Nook--and slap their counter and or keyboard and say, "Set me up with that there new Crispin Guest novel. That TROUBLED BONES one. And while yer at it, get me another and wrap it up nice and pretty for my best pal for Christmas." You don't really have to do it in that cowboy accent but it makes it more fun.
Hi Jeri,
Is it available in the EU yet? And if/when, can I get it through the Book Depository?
Thanks,
Kristi

It is available for preorder at amazon uk and the first two volumes of the series will be available in Frenh. Veil of Lies is being released some time this month, in fact. More languages to come! (Right now, the first four will be released one year after the other in Polish, and the first one is available right now in Russian, followed soon by the second).

We had a fantastic time at the launch. Your efforts (aided by "the long-suffering husband" et al)were much appreciated. Killer mead. Thanks again- heading off to dig in to TB.
