Geronimo Stilton Graphic Novel News
I've recovered somewhat from my Geronimo Stilton and the Kingdom Of Fantasy extravaganza and have a few more little bits of news.
Publisher's Weekly reports today that the first two Geronimo Stilton graphic novels have sold out of their first printing of 50000. No news on a second printing but I'm sure its on the cards.
In other graphic novel news the third book in the series, The Coliseum Con, is out next week (November 24th). Set in Ancient Rome, Geronimo is after the Pirate Cats again as they threaten to disrupt the opening of the great Colosseum, Ancient Rome’s largest amphitheater.
I must say the misspelling in the title (Coliseum vs Colosseum) has me intrigued (Ancient history geeks, am I missing something?).
There is a preview up on Amazon of the first few pages, and you can also read the preview in the previous volume, Secret Of The Sphinx.
Cheers
Inger



I LOVE GERONIMO BOOKS THEY RULE
To answer the spelling of Coliseum, it was spelled Colosseum and later changed to Coliseum. It can still be spelled either way.
The Romans called it Coliseum. That is how they spelled it. Then again, they were ancient peoples. You can’t expect anything else from over 200 years.
Howzit.
