it's a book!

O joy, o rapture, o bountiful Jehovah (to quote Toad)!  Today is pub day for Whisper to the Blood, the 16th Kate Shugak novel!

The Poisoned Pen Bookstore is launching the book this evening at 7pm.  There will be food and prizes and Laurie King is flying in from California to hold my sweaty little hand.

If you can't be here in person, you can watch on your computer via live streaming video here.

To order your own signed-on-publication-day copy, email sales@poisonedpen.com and tell Patrick Dana sent you.

Go here to catch up on your Kateology by watching "the Kate Shugak series (abridged)" video.

Go here to read "Conspiracy," a mini short story set between A Deeper Sleep and Whisper to the Blood, written exclusively for publication on www.stabenow.com.

To kick start your book club discussion, go here for A Reader's Guide to Whisper to the Blood.

For help in your lesson planning, go here for A Teacher's Guide to Whisper to the Blood.

 And lastly, my sincere thanks to all the Kate Shugak fans out there.  She lives because of you.  Thanks!
