I always enjoy your blog, but today it made my day.
I linked to the article by Stephen King and found a book I couldn't wait to open, THE GARDEN OF LAST DAYS. Like King, I loved HOUSE OF SAND AND FOG, and somehow missed the news this wonderful author had a new book out. Yes, I have been buzzed, and it feels great. Thank you. On my way to the bookstore.
