Kepler's

Important Changes Regarding Tonight's Event

Due to events outside Kepler's control, the publisher has booked Mr. Winchester on the "Jim Bohannon" national radio show. The show producers were looking for an expert on China to discuss the recent earthquake there.

Our event will go on as planned, but will be cut short - at approximately 8:05 p.m. - for Mr. Winchester to do the phone interview.

Kepler's will make arrangements for all books to be signed and personalized after the interview. You're welcome to wait, but if that's not possible, we will keep your signed books and have them available to you for pick up at your convenience.

Unfortunately, the Jim Bohannon show, though national, is not aired on Bay Area radio stations. It is, however, on AM stations out of Sacramento and Napa, among other areas. If possible, we will try to air the interview live from the store.

Mr. Winchester will arrive at Kepler's an hour early, so we invite you to get to the store early to meet the author and to get your books signed before 7:30 p.m.

Thank you so much for your understanding.
