As we enter the final lap here, with\u00a0The Book of Accidents<\/strong> releasing\u00a0next week\u00a0<\/em>(ahhhhh), I figured it was a good time to do one more pre-release roundup.<\/p>\n

I posted tour information<\/a> and where to get signed copies<\/a> already, buuuut — if you wanted to buy signed copies in the UK, then I have\u00a0that<\/em> info available, as well:<\/p>\n

Waterstones<\/a><\/p>\n

Forbidden Planet<\/a><\/p>\n

Goldsboro Books<\/a><\/p>\n

Let’s see, what else?<\/p>\n

A starred review from Booklist<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“Wendig has fashioned a horror story that feels at once old-fashioned and cutting-edge, masterfully taking a familiar scenario and shaking it up to devastating effect. More proof, if proof were still needed, that Wendig is a\u00a0force to be reckoned with across genres.”<\/p>\n

And a starred review from Library Journal<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“Wendig\u2019s\u00a0latest is a bold, impressive novel with fierce intelligence and a generous, thrumming heart; this is the author writing at the height of his powers. It\u2019s intimate and panoramic. It\u2019s humane and magical. It\u2019s a world-hopping, time-jumping ride that packs a deep emotional punch.<\/p>\n

…blends horror, fantasy, and small-town family drama in an ambitious epic that spans both a multitude of worlds and the interior expanse of the human heart. This one\u2019s essential.”<\/p>\n

The audiobook is narrated by Xe Sands and George Newbern — available here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And tonight I’m a part of the virtual Random House Open House, doing a panel about hot new summer reads — you can find details here on how to attend<\/a>!<\/p>\n

I hope you’ll consider pre-ordering the book or asking your library to carry it. It’s weird to launch a book during a pandemic and I’m still… not entirely sure how I’m doing on that front. And it’s an intensely personal book, to boot, a heart-on-sleeve kind of novel, so hopefully it connects and people find their heart is there in the book, too. (Don’t worry, I didn’t steal your heart. Just… borrowed it, for a little bit.) If you’re so inclined to spread the word, that is a great favor you can do. Thanks, and hope you enjoy the book. One more week. Commence to freaking out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
