"Tonoharu: Part Two"–Now In Stores!

Tonoharu: Part Two is now available at fine retailers everywhere! (At least, that's the word on the street; I haven't been to a bookstore this week, so I can't say for absolute certain. If anyone's actually seen it in a bookstore, please leave a comment!)

But in the very least, it's now in stock at Amazon.com, so if you've been waiting for that, head on over and pick up a copy!

(And of course, you can always order a signed copy from my store.)
