Just a reminder that Dracula is a Racist, my first book-of-words-and-some-pictures-too, is officially available today! And you all thought it was some super elaborate April Fool's prank. C'mon, I would never lie to you, baby.

The book is available in bookstores all over as well as online retailers like Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Borders, Books a Million and IndieBound.

I'll be doing a few signings/readings/doodleparties for the book soon, so follow me on Twitter or Facebook for announcements!

More information about the book can be found over here. You can also read several excerpts from the book on I posted over at Robots With Feelings. They can be read here, over here, right here and here!

Actually, you should probably check ahead. A few people have mentioned that the stores they went to (Borders and B&N) were out of stock because the books were available early.

Hey Matt, I bought your book, and the C&H book about a week ago from Barnes and Noble, and I received both books in the mail not three days later. The wierd thing is, is that B&N sent an email that they'd be sending two packages since they did not have your Drac book yet. (Which was absolutely no problem at all to me.) How come I can order it and get it on time yet others can't? Excluding odvious things like different country's and what not. :)

EDIT: durrrr I need to read ahead more often! All figured out!

Buying this as soon as it pops up in my local Borders. Wish I could download it in pdf and just donate $20 to you, but buying it works too.

Meh, dutch bookstores suck. "No", said the woman, "We don't have your comic yet, try next month!"

Sigh.... I will buy it if it comes out in Holland.

I just wanted to say that I purchased your book on my Kindle and I'm loving it so far, but the real reason for this post is that I wanted to thank you for doing such a great job on the Kindle edition.

All the hyperlinks work, the images are clear and and sized well- there's a full-screen cover and a table of contents and chapter marks for jumping to different sections. Too many books in the Kindle store are sloppily done, and ones with images even more disastrous. I'm really glad to have found a quality ebook, and thank you again!

Awesome! I was really blown away at how well everything was handled. Be sure to include that in an Amazon review! *winknudge*

I'm getting it from waterstones for just £7.99 apparently (that's currently $12.16) what a bargain!

Mine arrived from Amazon UK today. So its now available in the UK too. Happy Times.

Although...Amazon UK still says it's only available for pre-order (http://bit.ly/9EdCiD).

Here's the proof:

Just read some of the inserts from your website, the book sounds like its going to be awesome and really funny.

Do you happen to know if any of those online bookstores ship internationally? I live in South Africa so it'll be A WHILE until your book gets here (if it does at all) and I know Amazon doesn't send here anymore!

Please let me know if you can!

Just bought the book at a Borders on the east coast. I've been keeping an eye out for it, so I was SUPER excited to see it on the shelf! Already laughing and I'm just through the introduction (Loved that extra dedication page...). Can't wait to read the rest! :)
