You already arranged it with him, and didn't tell us?!
Er, the British, or the american release date?

It would be nice if we could have a Bartimeaus- based IRC chat, though.

Like I said, I don't have a firm date yet. But we'll try and do it after the book's been out for a bit in the major markets so most people have a chance to read it first.

Haha, I'd feel bad if we forced him to talk about the Barti world since he's kinda preoccupied with other things...

And incidentally, are there forums for his other book series? Or are we basically the everything-Stroud forum now?

Which is probably how I'm a Horla.

What is that thing with Dragoncave?

We should do some kind of publicity stunt to get new (active) members. How about someone tris to get another IRC interview with Stroud?
Dragcave is just some place where you get to raise your dragon pet from egg to adult (like those in my sig), the idea is to make people view it, more view it has, faster it hatches.
As for new members, maybe if we give out some signed lockwood book for *cough*FREE*cough* we may get some...

Out of curiosity, does everybody pay attention to who the author is when they are reading? I don't, :P
I'm more apt to remember the title of the book than the writer.

I'm more apt to remember the plot and character types, than the title, author, or summary.

I... pay attention to that stuff.

I was surprised to hear CaptainInternets the other day describe some events in a series he was reading and I mentioned the title of the book and he went "What's that?" :P

It actually annoys me to no end when the author's name is larger than the title on the cover. Looking at you, Dan Brown -_-

Especially when don't know which is title and which is the author.

Now, let's not be hasty... MrCat is an eternal spring for amusement.
But, do in fact, join us in IRC, it can get rather dull at times.
