"The Tooth Fairy left the name DreamHaven Books
under my pillow. Usually it's a 25-cent piece;
but given the current value of the U.S. dollar,
the value of this tip was far more glorious.
DreamHaven is a book-seeker's cave of miracles."

- Harlan Ellison

One More Week

Mon, 23 Jan 2012 03:14:37 GMT

I'm down to the last week of regular hours. Things have been going really wel lately, but it hasn't made me change my mind about going to irregular and much-reduced hours. Still most of the sales I'm making are special order sales and mail orders so keeping to the regular schedule still doesn't make enough economic sense. This coming week my regular hours are Tuesday 12-5:30; Wednesday 12-7; Thursday 12-5:30; Friday and Saturday 12-7. Then the PARTY will commence. It may even start a little   ...   Read More »

I've got some signings, readings and even a panel discussion in the works so keep an eye on this space.

And remember, there is a PARTY on Saturday, January 28th at 7:00pm. We'll have food, drink and conversation.   ...   Read More »

Tintin

Mon, 09 Jan 2012 03:01:02 GMT

I just saw The Adventures of Tintin this afternoon and I thought it was great. It was really exciting, colorful and funny. I laughed like crazy.

I'd been worried how it might come out. I'm a huge fan of Herge's Tintin and with the track record of some of Hollywood's adaptations, well, it doesn't take too much imagination to figure out my trepidation.

Creature From the Black Lagoon

DreamHaven Books is proud to announce the first US publication of the novelization of the 1954 classic film, Creature From the Black Lagoon.

The book will contain the original novel but we have added some new items:

- Stills from the film.
- A new introduction by David Schow.
- A new cover by Bob Eggleton.

Due around September, 2011.

Trade Paperback $20.00
Hardcover (Limited to 750 copies) $50.00
