Win an autographed copy of "State of Fear"

As mentioned below, Dec. 7 is "State of Fear Day" at DB. In addition to the value pricing on Michael Crichton's newest book, that is a regular Dessert Night and we'll have a special guest, too.

Since the publisher is keeping quiet about the nature of the book and won't even release cover art, we're interested in your best guesses. Crichton has been around for awhile, from "The Andromeda Strain" to "Congo" and his last book, "Prey."

Send me your most imaginative blurb about the book. The most creative guesser (and not necessarily the most accurate) will win an autographed copy of the book from DB. Post your guesses here or e-mail them to webmaster@destinationsbooksellers.com. Snail mail entries are also eligible. Deadline for entries is Dec. 7 and judging will be done by DB staff. There's sure to be a late publicity push for the book, but don't worry about guessing "right" on what the book is about. Our criteria will be for the most entertaining and imaginative.

I have my own theories about it, but I'll keep those to myself for now.

Randy it would be near to impossible narrow done Michael Crichton's newest venture in print. The man that writes about such a wide range of subject matter and locations. My guess is that he will be the next author to pen a fictional Holiday book with a twist. Keep up the good work.

Here's my Crichton blurb:

From the streets of New Albania, to the beer gardens of Bavaria and the noodle stands of Hong Kong, reasonably intelligent people the world over confront the mutant strain of Bush-whacked political reality posed by "four more years - a State of Fear."

Okay, so I took the easy way out, but I prefer non-fiction ...
