Guillermo del Toro at Mystery & Imagination this Thursday, 6 pm!

This is a big deal.

From bookseller Christine Bell:

Director, screenwriter, novelist Guillermo del Toro, signing PACIFIC RIM: MAN MACHINE AND MONSTERS and THE STRAIN, Thursday July 25th at 6 pm

Mr. Guillermo del Toro has volunteered to sign as a benefit to our bookshop, this Thursday July 25th at 6 pm. He squeezed us in his already jam-packed schedule in order to help us out before he jets off the next day. What a generous and kind-hearted man. Since the schedule is tight, he will just be signing books and chatting to people as they get their books signed. We will make a signing-line number when you pay us for your book purchase. The books are on a first paid, first served basis.

The pre-order books for both mail order and for attendees are:

PACIFIC RIM: MAN, MACHINE AND MONSTERS. Hardcover in dust jacket. It is a large, magnificently illustrated book with the foreword by del Toro. $45.00

Just In! 20 copies of THE ART OF PUSS AND BOOTS. Lavishly illustrated hardcover in dust jacket. First edition, first printing. $39.99.

Mail orders are welcome, and patrons can bring items from their own collections for signing (there will be a signing fee for items not purchased at the store). Pre-orders are strongly encouraged - and will get you an early space in line.

Please join Guillermo del Toro and help keep the lights on at one of the finest bookstores in town.
