    Looks like you had nice afternoon. Was the shop crowded for the event?

    Surprizingly no, there were about 35-40 fans on hand, and like 20 requests for signed books for people that weren't there. I'd think a writer who is also a media star would pull more people. I asked my brother in-law (the owner) and he said it was a good crowd. The event was really only advertised on Ambers website and the stores e-mail list. Murder By The Book is mostly a mystery/crime book shop, and I've been to signings there by mainstrean mystery authors that were very crowded. Amber's urban fantasy books are a not their main draw, so I guess a lot of the stores regulars just weren't that interested.
