The Adventures of Hotsy Totsy, Clive Cussler’s rollicking sequel to The Adventures of Vin Fiz (2006), has just been released. Signed editions and exclusive signed limited editions of The Adventures of Hotsy Totsy are available at VJ Books (http://www.vjbooks.com).
In The Adventures of Hotsy Totsy (May 2010: Penguin), Casey and Lacey Nicefolk are two regular, all-American brother-and-sister twins who have a secret. In their barn there is a mysterious widget that can turn any small object into a life-size replica.
Since their parents are out-of-town, the twins decide to have some fun and create a real working powerboat using a model boat and their newly found gizmo. Casey and Lacey take their new powerboat and enter a race up the Sacramento River. But during the race, they find that their powerboat is no ordinary boat and that the race is no ordinary race. This is a romping adventure where being the first to cross the finish line is not the only prize.
Clive Cussler is the bestselling author of the Dirk Pitt series, the Oregon Files series, and the Numa Files series–all nautical mystery/thriller novels. Some of the novels in the Dirk Pitt adventures include… (more…)

Some signed first editions come with a sticker on the front of the book saying “signed copy” and it seems those copies are signed on a blank page. Are these books signed for large distribution? Is your Clive Cussler Trojan Odyssey signed on the title page?” (Dave, New Jersey)
John responds…The sticker that you refer to is placed on the book by the publisher simply only to indicate that the book is signed. Typically, they are signed on a blank page (referred to as a tip-in) that the author signs in bulk, and the publisher inserts them in at the bindery. There is some controversy as to whether this type of signed edition holds the same value as a book that has been signed on the title page. VJBooks does receive some books signed in this fashion from various publishers. However, Trojan Odyssey is signed directly on the title page by Clive Cussler .
