Can't order it online, my dad's a grumpy butt. :lol:

I just remembered; the day I went and bought Let the Right One In from B&N, they have Handling the Undead. O_O *squawks* need. money.

This is the art they'll have on Little Star. Not a huge fan, I like the blue version better. :|
It will be worth the wait, trust me! It's a great book and reading it in American English will probably be much better. In the meantime if you can get a hold of the money read Handling the Undead... also a great book and easily worth whatever chores or work you have to do to make the 15 bucks to obtain it.

People! People! Has everybody forgotten your local library. I know that "Handling the Undead" is available in libraries in my state...
J, i'm sure if you look around you can find HTU in your neighborhood .
It's true, Little Star is definetly worth waiting for....It's a fantastic book.

I guess it depends on where one lives as to whether or not it's in the library. Our local library has Let Me In and Harbor, but I don't think they've ever had HtU. That's pretty impressive for my local library since I live in BFE, Kansas!

Here's yet another cover for Little Star that showed up as a pre-order item on Amazon. Not a very memorable example of the book artwork. This is a second variant of the October 2, 2012 domestic release edition. I'm not sure what is the reason for multiple designs, but neither this or the previous cover gives me hope for an image worthy of this great novel
Looks like Thomas Dunne Books is about to drop the ball .

Oh, that cover looks so cool. I wish they had use that in the UK instead of the one with the doll laying in the ground.

Sometimes I wonder what criteria the cover artists are given to do the book cover art.

"Little Star" is available for purchase in US.
Mediocre cover and all...but it's finally here.
