In each city of Mr Gaiman’s 9 city book tour for “The Graveyard Book,” he shall read a chapter from said book. These readings will be caught by a camera and shared here at Mr Bob’s remarkable Mouse Circus (Gaiman’s Official website for young readers).
By the end of the tour you have a free book. If you have not heard the man read his own works you owe it to yourself to tune in. Not only is he a wizardly wordsmith, he can weave an aural tale to boot.
So… the tour has started. At each tour stop I read a chapter of the book, and each evening’s reading is being filmed. (Tour schedule is up at http://journal.neilgaiman.com/2008/09/graveyard-book-tour.html and at Where’s Neil)
http://www.mousecircus.com/videotour.aspx is the page on which the readings will be posted.

By the end of the tour you get a free book. (Well, free in the sense that it’s something you don’t have to pay for, anyway.)
(Edit to add: There seems to be sporadic overload on the Mousecircus.com servers, so the Webgoblin is also putting them up at http://www.neilgaiman.com/p/Cool_Stuff/Video_Clips/The_Graveyard_Book_Tour and here’s an embedding of that one)
Why this was a very useful post, Mr Gaiman, and I did share the link with all my friends, invisible and otherwise.
