Finally, the day we've all been waiting for, is (almost) here. Klaatu Terminus, the final book in the Klaatu Diskos trilogy comes out on April 8th, and we're bursting with curiosity and excitement.

It's hard to describe this complicated and stunning trilogy. It includes: the rise and fall of societies and religions, maggot-like creatures, and disks that you can step through to travel to other times. The plot twists and turns through time, and we don't know how Pete Hautman kept it all straight when he wrote it.

In celebration of the release of Klaatu Terminus, we are going to have a big party, complete with arugula and goat cheese burgers. Come to Wild Rumpus on Thursday, April 24th at 6:30PM to party with Pete Hautman and us.

Also, read all three books (Obsidian Blade, Cydonian Pyramid, and of course, Klaatu Terminus). Your mind will be blown.

About Book I: The Obsidian Blade:

"...Part science fiction, part adventure, part mystery, but every bit engrossing..." - Kirkus Review

We like Pete Hautman's style. In fact, our teen book club likes his style so much, they have read four of his books (Godless, Invisible, Rash, and How to Steal a Car)—not to mention the Hautman books they've each read on their own.

One of the things we like about National Book Award winner Pete Hautman is how extremely diverse his books are. From realistic fiction to futurist sci-fi to really good vampire stories before vampire stories were trendy, he writes it all.

We are extremely excited about Pete's new book, The Cydonian Pyramid. It's the second book in The Klaatu Diskos sci-fi trilogy (if you haven't read the first, The Obsidian Blade, you are truly missing out). It's got pyramids, nanobots, and time travelling maggots. What more do you want?

So come to Wild Rumpus on Saturday, June 1 at 11AM to talk about time travel and pink maggots. It's going to be fantastic.

Pete Hautman, Rash.; Walter Dean Myers, Lockdown.

This book club, better known as ARRG!, is for ages 13 and up. The cool thing about this book club is that instead of reading books that are already published, you get to read Advanced Reader Copies (known in the publishing business as ARCs) of books that have yet to be published. Then, you tell us what you think! We'll also read one published book each month. At this time, the book club is full. Call the store to find out about getting on the waiting list. Our next meeting will be Saturday, January 23rd at 5:30PM. Our published book this month is Rash by Pete Hautman. The ARC is Lockdown by Walter Dean Myers. Come by the store to pick up your ARC.
