NY, Grand Central Publishing, (2012). The advance reading copy of the first book of a dystopian trilogy for young adults, in which detonations have fused humans to animals and objects, except for those living in the Dome. Film rights have already been sold, and the marketing seems to aim to position this series alongside The Hunger Games trilogy and the Twilight series and similar bestselling and critically well-received young adult books. A blurb from Pulitzer Prize winner Robert Olen Butler calls it "the most extraordinary coming-of-age novel I've ever read." This copy is signed by Baggott. Spine creases; a read copy. Very good in wrappers. A somewhat uncommon advance copy, and scarce signed. [#029626] $25
