[Dragaera] DZUR Face Front and NEW

[FRIEDA2133 at aol.com]

Some of you know what I meant by my subject line and some of you don't.

I pre-ordered Dzur at Barnes and Noble and I had to go over and
see if the Brust shelf area was okay.  They had only two copies of 
Dzur and they were both only showing the side or spine of the book.
And then there wasn't any Dzur books in the NEW Science Fiction 
section and none in the New Fiction section.  

So when I left with my copy of Dzur, there was one Dzur book in the 
NEW Science Fiction section Face Front and in the Brust section
was the second Dzur Book Face Front.  

Just my little bit to help spread the word.  Lots of Vlad fans out
there that probably don't even know there is a *NEW* book out.
And even others who might pick up the book for the cool cover.

Dzur has "A SCI FI ESSENTIAL BOOK" on the cover.  But isn't
up on http://www.scifimonthlypick.com yet.

But a Search of scifi.com came up with these

'institutional affiliation" :
