Lurulu has arrived! *bounce*
Yes, I bought "Lurulu" today, or "De lokkende verte" as the Dutch translation is called!
I don't think the bookstore realize this is really a premiere. Before the english version is available, the Dutch can read it. :)
Allright, you all are dying to know all about it, right? :)
Well, it has 222 pages and 12 chapters, divided in sub-chapters. I've finished the first chapter, which is a 17 page summary of the previous book "Ports of Call" ("De wilde vaart").
I was happy to see some chapters start with an excerpt of the "Handboek der Planeten" ("Handbook of the Planets"? I've never read an english version). No footnotes however, which I assume is quite a taske if you have to tell the story to your wife who than writes it down...

See? Told you so :) 
Apparently Lurulu has been printed in October already!
