Doodled Rare Book Alert - Exclusive From the Publishers of Harry Potter + This Weekend

Good Evening!

From the publishers of Harry Potter comes new first-time author Jon Mayhew with a brilliant mystery adventure story Mortlock. It’s an original tale of two brave twins who take on the forces of evil while they piece together their extraordinary history. The sister is a knife-thrower in a magician’s stage act, the brother an undertaker’s assistant. Neither orphan knows of the other’s existence. Until, that is, three terrible Aunts descend on the girl’s house and imprison her guardian, the Great Cardamom. His dying act is to pass the girl a note with clues to the secret he carries to his grave. Cardamom was one of three explorers on an expedition to locate the legendary Amarant, a plant with power over life and death. Now, pursued by flesh-eating crow-like ghuls, brother and sister must decode the message and save themselves from its sinister legacy.

In our opinion quite simply one of the best children’s books released this year. The publishers at Bloomsbury have put a lot of thought into this books design. Each book has fabulous red endpapers and the page edges have been finished in black.

Jon Mayhew has signed, lined, dated, numbered and doodled some exquisite rare books exclusively for our collectors. Every first edition book has a full numberline and is in fine/fine condition. To view the books CLICK HERE

So start your collection today!

Have a great night!

Best wishes,

Claire

PS Coming soon this weekend a world exclusive fiction title from the publishers of The Name of the Wind.

The Next Big Thing Since Spiderman?

Do you remember last year when Entertainment Giant Disney announced that it was going to buy Marvel and take over ownership of over 5,000 characters including Spiderman and X-Men? Soon after there was a record breaking sale of the first ever Spiderman comic. It would be amazing to have the insight to invest in something like that…
Well now a fabulous new comic book series has been launched in 2010. Imagine a Bogart and Bacall movie recast with Laurel and Hardy. Dressed in dog suits. That's not really quite what Good Dog, Bad Dog is like but still, imagine. Good Dog, Bad Dog, meanwhile, is a knockabout comic noir adventure comedy full of slapstick humour, terrible puns and exciting action. It's inspired by all the old black and white film noirs that we all love but it's unpretentious fun rather than arty homage (though hopefully with a touch of class about it). Comics guru Paul Gravett praised its "snappy patter and clever twists" and called it a "punchy, fast-paced ... witty yarn" and that's pretty much what Dave Shelton was aiming for. It stars canine detectives Kirk Bergman and Duncan McBoo fighting crime in their home city of Muttropolis (I did mention the terrible puns didn't I?) as they tackle villains such as evil Wah Wah Johnson and thuggish Pug Ugly, trade lines with femme fatale Fifi La Confiture and occasionally disguise themselves in unconvincing beards. It's daft exciting fun and it's got milkshakes in it: what more could you want?

Each rare first edition first printing book in stock is signed, lined, dated, doodled and numbered 1 of 1. To view the books CLICK HERE

Pre-Publication World Exclusive Only at Doodled Books

Good Evening
Today Doodled Books has a pre-publication exclusive. Lyme Hall is a sensational new self published book by Stuart Webb. The book is going to be released in the coming months and to celebrate an ultra rare set of chapter samples are available only at Doodled Books. These samples are subtly different from the final book as they are from the proofreading/typesetting stage. They are signed, dated, numbered and pre-publication dated. Infact if you look closely they are dated 2009!
Recently Lyme Hall was featured in The Book and Magazine Collector in December. Journalist Jonathan Scott chose the title as one of the New Wave of New Collectables. As you know Stuart Webb is an award winning author of short stories. He famously helped a number of up-and-coming authors to realise their dreams such as Roderick Gordon and Brian Williams to name but a few. So these samples could become very collectable.

To view the chapter samples and for more information CLICK HERE

Have a great weekend!

Sweet Sorrow by David Roberts

Good Afternoon!

I hope you had a great Christmas. Today you can pre-order the long awaited final Lord Corinth and Verity Brown title. Sweet Sorrow is a brilliant book by the talented author David Roberts. It has class written all over it. This series of books has been featured in the Book and Magazine Collector and many of the titles are now worth hundreds of pounds.

Each book will be signed by the author. They will be UK First Edition First Printings. The books will also be doodled, lined and dated by David Roberts. These books are exclusive to Doodled Books collectors and with the print run estimated at over 1000 books this makes these copies very sought after.

Breaking News- Branded Tape

Currently we are working on some branded packaging tape for www.doodledbooks.com . This is a very exciting development and we are looking forward to the finished design.

Only 10 Rare Books in the World - James Bond meets the Da Vinci Code in this Debut

Hope you had a fantastic day. Today you can order a real page turner called The Best of Men by Claire Letemendia. This is her debut book and it was ten years in the making. Beaumont her lead character is the James Bond of his time and this period piece is thrilling. The social and political detail are fascinating and the cipher theme has a historical echo of the Da Vinci Code. The book is intricate and detailed and has a huge cast list, but the writing is sharp and teleports the reader right back to 1642. As historical novels go, this is awesome and you really get to care about the characters, even some of the villains.

This book is highly recommended and some critics are comparing her work to CJ Sansom and Iain Pears. The UKs leading bookstore Waterstones voted The Best of Men as the New Talent Book of the Month.

Doodled Books has just 4 ultra rare signed, lined and doodled books for you to order - the rest sold out on pre-orders. See this link for more details http://www.doodledbooks.com/the-best-of-men-by-claire-letemendia-1652-c.asp

This really is a gargantuan feast fit for a king so start your collection now!

Mousehunter by Alex Milway


Just uploaded onto the website today are some fantastic rare books by Alex Milway. The amazing thing about this book is the film potential as we can seriously see kids wearing mouse utility belts if the book is turned into a movie.
