Attention Kaleb Nation fans. You all must be subscribing to his youtube account by now and know that there are a few things that he's obsessed with. 1) Gnomes 2) Kermit and 3) Owl City. Well, just as a quick blurb I'd like to announce that Owl City has just released the music video for Fireflies here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aI4JLa0hbUw

Prologue Reading

Here is the recording of Kaleb Nation reading the prologue for Bran Hambric: TFC for those of you who missed the live BlogTv show (such as me, who was at a family dinner). Enjoy.

*Spoiler alert. If you do not want to read the book until its actual release date beware.

An Author's Reading

2009-07-19T11:45:00.000-07:00

This is a rare moment in youtube's life, when we are blessed by having the author, Kaleb Nation, himself read us a portion of Bran Hambric, due out 9/9/09.

Mentioned in New York Times and Walls Street Journal

2009-07-14T17:29:00.000-07:00

It appears as though Bran Hambric is getting a lot of buzz. Kaleb Nation's post on this event is:
"The Wall Street Journal was the first to report:
In an interview, Sourcebooks’ chief executive said it will delay by at least half a year the e-book version of “Bran Hambric: The Farfield Curse,” a young-readers title in the vein of Harry Potter that goes on sale Sept. 9. While the book is a debut novel, the author, Kaleb Nation, has a following with his Twilightguy.com blog.
Sourcebooks is issuing 75,000 copies of “Bran Hambric,” a sizable print run in this economy, and has arranged a substantial marketing campaign and book tour for Mr. Nation. (read more…)
This turned into more than a dozen big blogs getting in on the discussion. Now this evening, an article in the New York Times reported it as well:
Sourcebooks, an independent publisher, is releasing “Bran Hambric: The Farfield Curse,” a novel aimed at children, in September in hardcover. It will hold back the e-book until six months later. (read more…)"

This looks like some great news!!!!!

Blurbs

2009-05-12T21:03:00.000-07:00

Kaleb just posted that he received two blurbs. This is an excerpt:

Kim Harrison, bestselling author of The Hollows Series (with Dead Witch Walking), co-contributor to Stephenie Meyer and others on Prom Nights From Hell, and whose upcoming book Once Dead, Twice Shy is currently in my reading pile of ARCs, wrote:

Innocence gives way to danger as Bran pieces together his deadly past before his legacy can rise up to kill him in turn. With characters both silly and serious, Kaleb Nation has crafted a world vastly different from our own where magic sits next to cell phones, and gnomes really do travel. Reminiscent of Harry Potter, Bran Hambric: The Farfield Curse is everything a young adult read should be...
