"Bod is an unusual boy who inhabits an unusual place-he's the only living resident of a graveyard. Raised from infancy by the ghosts, werewolves, and other cemetery denizens, Bod has learned the antiquated customs of his guardians' time as well as their timely ghostly teachings-like the ability to Fade.

Can a boy raised by ghosts face the wonders and terrors of the worlds of both the living and the dead? And then there are things like ghouls that aren't really one thing or the other.

This chilling tale is Neil Gaiman's first full-length novel for middle-grade readers since the internationally bestselling and universally acclaimed Coraline. Like Coraline, this book is sure to enchant and surprise young readers as well as Neil Gaiman's legion of adult fans."

Cartea urmeaza sa apara pe 30 septembrie. Cum vi se pare subiectul? (stiu vreo 2 fani Neil Gaiman pe aici ) Mie imi aminteste de Un loc placut si numai al lor.

Am citit The Witch's Headstone, care a fost publicat ca nuvela si e de fapt capitolul 3 din carte, si mi-a placut foarte mult ce am vazut acolo. O sa ti-l dau cu urmatoare ocazie. E foarte Neil Gaimanish, in stilul Anansi Boys combinat cu partile mai intunecate din American Gods.

Unde publicat? unde, unde?
Dar sper ca nu e prea pentru middle grade readers

Parca in Locus.

Nu, nu e pentru middle school. Are niste chestii foarte "tari" in ea, in traditia Gaimaneasca.

Abia astept sa apara. Mai sunt 5 saptamani
