The Flame Alphabet is one of those books that seems to have it all on the front end, for me:

• GREAT cover
• in the syfy-ish category
• back cover blurb by MichaelChabon (he’s never lead me astray)
• interesting book trailer (ok, so I’ve yet to jump on the book trailer bandwagon, but this one was particularly creepy & creative)

I just hope it delivers. It’s certainly seems to have a lot going for it. We’ll see…
