Awesome! That means that us Anglophones can get almost all caught up on JAL's catalogue. All that will be missing will be the remainder of
Låt de gamla drömmarna dö.
And
Tjärven.

...the story derives a lot of its appeal from its sense of despair and a darkness in which the love of Eli and Oskar seems to shine with a strange and disturbing light.

Any updates? I see that our man will be doing a book signing in October for little star.
I'll break open the story and tell you what is there. Then, like the others that have fallen out onto the sand, I will finish with it, and the wind will take it away.

Which probably means that books are ready to be shipped and
hopefully I'll get the one I ordered from UK a bit earlier than October 12-14.
That Forbidden Planet book signing would be just an awesome reason for trip to London...

I just received an email from Amazon UK stating that my copy of Little Star will arrive
sooner then originally promised date. Instead of October 11-12 it will arrive on September 23-28.
Excellent news.

I got the same info.

I actually have a tracking number.
w00t!
According to UPS, my
Lilla Stjärna was most recently going through export scan in Castle Donnington (which is strange, since it started its journey early this morning in Edinburgh

).
Edit: Now Philadelphia.

I just got my copy (digital) from Amazon.co.uk, and as they are offering it at half-price ( £6.49 ) I ordered the hardcover as well.

Refresh my memory...Is Australin cover art different from UK cover?
