Launch party for A TRAIL OF FIRE tonight!

The Poisoned Pen bookstore in Scottsdale, AZ, will be hosting a launch party for A TRAIL OF FIRE tonight, October 23, at 7 pm Arizona time.

Diana Gabaldon will be discussing A TRAIL OF FIRE in a livestream webcast from 7-8 pm Arizona time tonight. (That's 10 pm Eastern Time, or 3 am in the UK. <g>)

If you're not able to attend the event in person, you can watch the livestream video here.

You can order an autographed copy of A TRAIL OF FIRE from the Poisoned Pen here, or if you don't want a signed copy, you can order the book from amazon.co.uk.

(Please note: the official release date for this book is November 8, 2012. The Poisoned Pen may be shipping out the signed pre-orders sooner than that, though; Diana said on Compuserve this afternoon that she will be signing all the pre-orders today and tomorrow.)



UPDATE 10/24/2012: Here's the video of Diana Gabaldon's appearance at the Poisoned Pen on October 23, 2012. It's about an hour long, and definitely worth watching. (You might want to skip the beginning, though. Diana doesn't actually arrive until about 3 1/2 minutes into the video.) Diana talks in detail about A TRAIL OF FIRE, and reads an excerpt from "The Space Between".

Among other things, she said:

• There will be a Book 9! Diana has hinted at this in various places online in recent months, but I've never heard her say it before, and somehow that made it more definitive.
• The "shape" of WRITTEN IN MY OWN HEART'S BLOOD looks like "piano keys". (No, she didn't give any details.)
• There may be some news about the possible TV series in the next several weeks. She didn't elaborate, but I promise I'll post here as soon as I hear anything.
• Fans of Theresa's Outlander Kitchen site will definitely want to hear Diana's comments starting at about 53 minutes into this video! Verrrrry interesting. <g>
