Robert McCammon traveled to Troy, MI, on June 6, 2011, to sign and inscribe copies of his new novel, The Five, at the Subterranean Press warehouse.  Over the course of two days, he signed over 1600 copies of The Five, plus about 80 copies of Mister Slaughter.  If you order The Five directly from Subterranean Press, you will receive one of these signed copies.  Photos by Hunter Goatley.  Thanks to the great folks at Subterranean Press for putting out such a beautiful book and for being such gracious hosts!
