Stranger than Fiction!

What science fiction is this? The booming of cannons in the distance, the sky dark as twilight mid-morning? What is this watery substance coming down outside? Is the air conditioner not working? I can’t hear it running, but it still feels comfortable! What the heck is going on?

A break in the heat wave? Now… that is a fantasy story we can all enjoy!

Trilogy Wrap Ready for Release

Readers of Suzanne Collins Hunger Games series are itching for the conclusion – and will have that satisfying scratch August 24th with the release of Mockingjay, the final book in the well-received trilogy. The series is geared to young adults, but has found readership across the board.

Praise for the Hunger Games series: “Whereas Katniss kills with finesse, Collins writes with raw power.” -Time Magazine “Collins has joined J.K. Rowling and Stephanie Meyer as a writer of children’s books that adults are eager to read.” -Bloomberg.com “Perfect pacing and electrifying world building.” -Booklist, starred review “A humdinger of a cliffhanger will leave readers clamoring for volume three.” -Kirkus reviews, starred review “Forget Edward or Jacob… readers will be picking sides- Peeta or Gale?” -Publishers Weekly, starred review “Leaves enough questions tantalizingly unanswered for readers to be desperate for the next installment.” -School Library Journal, starred review.

The book, in hardcover, carries an $18.99 price tag. Pre-orders received and paid previous to August 24th are priced at $9.95 at McHuston Booksellers.
