I just got an e-mail from Garth Nix's Australian publishers, and the last Keys to the Kingdom book is coming out in Feb. Usually they come out in June but Lord Sunday took a little longer to write this time around and so instead of coming out this year like intended, it'll be coming out next year. BUT EARLY NEXT YEAR. Yey
Honestly I've gotten so lazy with reading that if it weren't for new releases from Nix and Irvine I probably wouldn't pick up a book at all >.>;

I'd rather wait a bit, to be honest, and give Nix enough time to make it a nice, proper ending. It would suck if the last book fell flat altogether. Still, it's COMING. That's good news as it is ^^

xD actually his books seem to come out in the US and the UK a month earlier then Aus. Ian Irvine books have come out in Aus first and the other two a month later... maybe they'll release it at the same time all around the wooorrrld xDD Poor Nick is the one who has to wait a whole year usually to get his hands on the books >.>

Reasonably so xDD It's awful how long you've had to wait for the Keys to the Kingdom books.
*half watches a debate on the death of democracy* First thought: Nick would like this, Second thought: Bored now *turns over to mindless tween-aimed surf show* After thought: Jo would like this...

Ooh. I still have to read the Saturday one. xD *has had no energy for books lately either* I really want to read Terry Pratchett's new one, though.
Hm. So in Australia you get your books... printed there, right? I wonder if it'd be faster for us to buy our books from Australia rather than from America.

It's pretty good xD Although it's the first Keys book not to be self-contained. It starts in Saturday and continues in Sunday
Depends on the publisher. Allan and Ulwin is Nix's Aus publisher, we also have a Penguin Australia but others are probably from overseas. I'm not sure we have any online book stores like Amazon, and if we do, a good portion of them were probably imported anyway.
