Well, we're nearly there! Boy, this is EXCITIN'! Nine days until you can get your mitts on THIS BOOK!

Here's a sneak peek at one of the splash pages that appear in the book. Originally a cover from the dfc (and actually relating to events from the SECOND Monkey Nuts book) it shows our intrepid heroes having a few problems with their shipwrecked HQ.

Enjoy!
