Valentino, too. The ghosts of Los Angeles are disappearing right and left!<BR><BR>Iggy Birnbaum is determined to get to the bottom of this mystery, no matter what Neddie Wentworthstein and Seamus Finn say. <BR><BR>There's just the little matter of traveling to another plane of existence, first…and then, of course, not pissing off a witch once she gets there.<BR><BR>From L.A. to Old New Hackensack, fans of The Neddiad will be delighted to join up with Iggy, Neddie, Seamus, and the usual apparitional entourage for another weird and wonderful adventure by Daniel Pinkwater. As Neil Gaiman said about the first book: "it's funny and tender and strange and impossible to describe. What Pinkwater does is magic and I'm grateful for it."<BR><BR>THE IGGYSSEY is vintage Pinkwater: laugh out loud funny, incredible characters, dialogue, humor. And like THE NEDDIAD, this book will be similarly illustrated throughout by Calef Brown. 5153126 16 2 2009 The Yggyssey: How Iggy Wondered What Happened to All the Ghosts, Found Out Where They Went, and Went There total:56|5:16|4:15|3:20|2:5|1:0| 56 210 127 32 4 2 false false Sun Aug 16 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sun Aug 02 11:39:19 -0700 2009 Sun Aug 16 16:01:20 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 1 false false Wed Jun 24 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Jun 24 21:07:12 -0700 2009 Wed Jun 24 21:22:37 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Fri Jul 10 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 10 13:03:50 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 10 13:25:33 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Tue Sep 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Nov 11 20:43:27 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 11 20:47:19 -0800 2009
