SUMMARY:OMG BRANDON SANDERSON!
DESCRIPTION:Yes, it's true.  Brandon Sanderson is coming to town.  Cue the squeee!!    On Friday February 15th, Brandon will be in Toronto to celebrate the launch of  A Memory Of Light.  Since the event promises to be huge, and we didn't want anyone huddling outside in the cold, we're hosting it offsite in the basement of the Lillian H. Smith library at 239 College (at Huron, just east of Spadina).  The event begins at 7pm.  Doors will open at 6pm, and it'll be first come, first seated.    A few points of information:    - This is a free event, no tickets or registration required.    - You aren't required to buy the book from us in order to attend, though of course we'd love it if you did.  We'll definitely have copies of A Memory Of Light available for sale that night, along with Brandon's other titles.    - Given the size of the event, we're going to set a limit of 3 books signed per trip through the line (and remember: Brandon's books. Not Robert Jordan's). Then you can rejoin the line, and get more books signed if time permits.    -Books signed?  Definitely.  Memorabilia?  Bring it on.  Body parts?  Er, no thank you.  And yes, you can take photographs.    - It's going to be AWESOME!    &nbsp;

SUMMARY:The Sound of Silence
DESCRIPTION:(Hint:  it's the sound of a whole group of people gathered here to help us celebrate the launch of Michelle Sagara's new novel)    That's right: this coming Saturday, May 5th, we're throwing a party to launch Michelle's newest novel, Silence.   It's her first YA title, (about Emma, who learns that being able to  speak to the dead is only the beginning of her problems) and it is spectacular.   If the book, the company, and the nibblies aren't enough of a  temptation, just think:  you'll get to tease Michelle in a public  environment!    We'd love for you to join us here at the store at 3pm.  Bring a friend!

SUMMARY:Another Chance to See Mike Carey
DESCRIPTION:Come out and spend an evening with British Horror/comics writer Mike Carey.    After a start writing for the British comic magazine 2000AD, Mike wrote the entire run of the Eisner-nominated comic Lucifer -- a story about the devil's quest for autonomy in a deterministic universe -- for DC/Vertigo, as well as a 40 issue run of Hellblazer.  He is an ongoing writer for DC, Marvel, and independent comics.    Mr. Carey's first prose novel was The Devil You Know,  a horror/mystery starring freelance exorcist Felix Castor.  Four  sequels have since followed.  Mr. Carey will talk about his work and  read from his latest novel. Thanks to the Toronto SpecFic Colloquium for  arranging his visit to Toronto.    So join us at 6:30 this evening,  at the Merril Collection (239 College, 3rd floor). The event is free,  and copies of Mr. Carey's works will be available.

SUMMARY:Interesting, But Unsurprising
DESCRIPTION:Yesterday our Random House rep gave us a  list of our best-selling Random House titles for 2010.  Here's a  shocker:  Terry Pratchett features highly (And by 'highly', I mean four  times in the top ten).    Here's the first part of the Random House list.  1. I Shall Wear Midnight, Terry Pratchett  2. Knife of Never Letting Go, Patrick Ness  3. Unseen Academicals, Terry Pratchett  4. All Clear, Connie Willis  5. Blackout, Connie Willis (in TR)  6. Good Omens, Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman  7. His Majesty's Dragon, Naomi Novik  8. City &amp; The City, China Mieville  9. Nation, Terry Pratchett  10. Blackout, Connie Willis (in HC)    It's kind of neat.  We tally our bestsellers ourselves, of course, but we rarely think to break them down by publisher.
