No, it's another new one that's coming out in July. It's a stand-alone novel called "Magic Street" I believe.

I'd sure love one right here in Ottawa, Ontario (Canada). Yep, I would. Pretty please? *bats eyelashes*

You know, he's never been to Alaska. Ever. For anything. If I recall, it's the only state in the union he's never visited. So before he starts going back to states like Utah where he's been, like, a bazillion times, he ought to consider coming up here to do a signing.
What do you think, Mr. Card? A book signing in Alaska. Sounds fun, right?

There will be a short tour for both Shadow of the Giant in March (mostly east coast) and one for Magic Street in July (no clue where). That's all I know for now. When we have exact dates and locations, they will be on the Hatrack calendar.

Kristine, There is a Barnes and Noble in Alpharetta, GA (metro Atlanta) AND P.F. Changs is across the street! Sounds like a good location to me Posts: 333 | Registered: Feb 2002

Well, OSC could take some hollidays and come in France. France is a great country, especially in the area of Lille. And I'm sure libraries would die to organize a signing with him. *wink wink*

I didn't even click on it and I knew what it was. That's three now, isn't it? They're like the hidden mickeys at Disneyland. Posts: 4089 | Registered: Apr 2003

There was a signing in Spokane? Waugh! I was right NEXT to Spokane before I moved back to Hawaii...
Sigh.
I was just thinking about how long it's been since the Portland signings, Narn. Hardly feels like more than a year. Weird.

quote:Over the years, quite by accident, we found that we had taken our kids to most of the states of the union. So it became a kind of goal to add states to the list.
The rules were simple -- landing at an airport and taking off again didn't count, but driving through any part of a state did count.
By the time our youngest was born, the older kids had visited every state except North Dakota and Alaska.
Alaska we'll visit on a cruise someday, when I work up the courage to face the idea of being trapped on a boat with the same group of strangers for a solid week or more.
But North Dakota ... they don't have any cruises there, and it's not on the way to anything, so the only way to visit it was just to decide to go there.
Those who suggested that we count seeing the movie Fargo as a visit to the state were quickly outvoted. Rules are rules.
Well, now we've been there[. . .]
. . . Leaving Alaska as the only state the Cards have yet to visit. I suppose this passage could be interpreted as meaning that there are states Geoff and Emily have been to that Goodman and Goody Card themselves have not, but somehow, I just don't read it that way.
So my state is left out simply because it's remote. Hawaii is even more remote, but it's also warm, so people don't think of it as remote.
I say forget the cruise. We have airports. We have good restaurants. We have more scenery than you can handle. Just fly in, do a book signing at our Barnes & Noble or Borders, look at some glaciers, bebop up to Mt. McKinley, check out a restaurant or two, and fly back home. Simplicity itself.

But what about your friendly neighbours to the north? Have you been to all Canadian provinces? I betcha haven't! And there are only ten of them! See? Easy, eh? Posts: 1996 | Registered: Feb 2004
