The Lock In Hardcover Has Arrived at the Scalzi Compound

And it appears Athena has arrived at a particularly surprising part of the narrative!
The hardcover looks great, by the way. The story inside of isn’t bad, either. You’ll all be able to judge for yourself, a little less than a month from now.
So excited for this to come out. I loved Unlocked and the teaser chapter.
I like the editing of the photo to have the only color be the little people on the cover of the book. That some photoshopping or were you able to do that with some other method?
Photoshop.
“OMG, I tell him and I tell him and Dad still gets semicolons wrong!”
John Barnes:
You didn’t know this, but that’s a very ironic thing to say about this particular book.
Why must you taunt us? The Lock In book physically exists, yet most of us cannot get our hands on it!
TAUNTING SCALZI TAUNTS.
Not sure it that was a ZOMG!!! or an incipient yawn. :D If you used Krissy and Athena as testbed readers, they may have already exceeded their RDA of Lock In.
How are YOU so special that you get an advance copy of Scalzi’s latest novel?!?
Oh, right – never mind…
Great photo!
Athena is so grown-up and poised these days in the photos you post. It always makes me smile.
I love that cover. Wish I would be able to get one when the book comes out.
Dammit, I read the subject, and thought that this was about the hardcover copy of “The Lock.” But this is about something else entirely!
(More seriously, the comment about semicolons has me even more intrigued about the book.)
Athena is a riot. What trickery was involved I wonder. The arcane witchery of Moola?
GAH! I just finished the prequel last night and while I am intrigued, the description of people getting locked in triggered my claustrophobia. I thought I was over it but the hee bee gee bees got me while driving home from work.
gah!
