Dark Matter ARC

I'm back from my trip to Kalbarri, Western Australia, and have finally gotten my hands on DARK MATTER. Mum's friend was kind enough to drop the mail off at our house, so I could inspect my little treasure. It arrived safe, despite the recent storms, and only the top corners were starting to peel a little from being shoved into an envelope and mailed across hemispheres. Viola!

And what makes it so precious? Inside...

For those who are interested, it says,
"For Joycelyn, many thanks for all your hard work on the Clan - and I really hope you enjoy this!"
The wolf paw print is a signature of Michelle's, which originates from her best selling series, The Chronicles of Ancient Darkness. The Clan is the official fan website for aforementioned series, on which I am a moderator.

I hope you aren't too fond of the cover shown above, because that is only the proof. This is the official cover:

DARK MATTER will be published in hardback (9784092378) and trade paperback (9784092379) on 21st October 2010, as well as an audio file. Pre-order your copy at Book Depository today (free shipping).

The review for DARK MATTER should be up by the end of next week, so keep an eye out for it.
