Welcome to the Guestbook!
I’m always eager to read your comments about my books and stories, so please feel free to pitch in. Here are a few things for you to know:
1) I answer the messages here personally.
2) No message shows up here until I actually answer it to prevent spam and other inappropriate postings. So there will sometimes be a delay before your message posts, especially if I am traveling.
3) Teachers, a gentle request: Please do not have multiple children send me variants of the same message. A group email is much easier to respond to and not such a drain on my time. My thanks in advance for being alert to this.

Hi Bruce!, I recently found my copy of my favorite book from when I was a kid in the early 90's, "The Monster's Ring". I even gave it another read-through just for old times sake. I've always loved the story and the message it contains (at least the message that I think it contains). Just want to say that the story has always been remembered fondly, and it's one of the few things I'd really love to be able to pass down to my kids one day, if I ever have them.
Really though, I just wanted to say Thank You for writing all of your wonderful books and inspiring the minds of those that have read your works.

Hi there Mr. Coville. I started reading Into the Land of the Unicorns and Song of the Wanderer when I was around 6 years old, and here I am 14 years later just finding out that you've written two more books since then! Life is too good. I absolutely loved the first two books growing up (chunks of pages were falling out of both of them just because I read them so many times) and I'm so excited to finally find out how Cara's story ends. In fact, I am about to order all four books and read them all back to back. The tale is beautifully written, and every time I read the first two books I feel myself being drawn into the world of Luster. (Really, I get so sucked in that people have to call my name a few times before I come back to the real world!) I also listened to the audio sample of Dark Whispers - I just love it. I was delighted to find out that you are the narrator! You do a perfect job of it, and every character's voice is spot on. I just wanted to let you know that The Unicorn Chronicles is still my favorite series, even at 20 years old, and even after reading those two books so many times, the story never gets old. I can't wait for all the books to come in the mail so I can continue the journey. Thank you so much for such a wonderful, wonderful read. - Demi
Dear mr. Coville,
Hello, my name is Chiara. I just absolutely love the Unicorn Cronicles. Can you please tell me if you are writing a new book? One day, I am going to make a movie of the Unicorn Chronicles, so I need to know if you are writing any new books.

Hi Mr Coville - today I decided to pop in my old audio cassettes of Song of the Wanderer (I was surprised that I managed to find my old cassette player). When I was younger I had the book pretty much memorized from reading and listening to it so much. When the tapes started playing, the nostalgia slapped me right smack across the nose. Every word, every breath, every pronunciation, and every intonation came back to me. And I nearly cried because these characters were so dear to me, and hearing them (and you!) speak this story again felt like I had gotten back some old friends. Thanks so much for that!
Why isn't there a paperback of The Last Hunt? The book was released three years ago!
I love your book into the land of the unicorns
Hello Mr. Coville, I'm aware that this isn't the typical post to your lovely guestbook, but I am a lifelong fan of your work and I was wondering if you could help me out.
I'm 17 years old, about to be a senior in high school and living at home, and I've been struggling on the topic of my sexuality for almost as long as I can remember. Recently this has been called into more attention as I've developed feelings for a very good friend of mine (a girl). My parents, particularly my father, are not at all accepting of LGBT (we've argued over this in the past). Although my sexuality is still a bit of a grey area for me, I'm beginning to realize that I'm not heterosexual, and I'm terrified of my parents' reactions if they found out. I'm unsure if who I can talk to about this.
Thank you, Kira

I am in the middle of reading "Dark Whispers", and it has been really good so far. I loved the first two books also. I got freaked out a bit in a few places, but it's been good in the rest of the book.
I read "Always October" last July when I did the review for the SFBR's kid section...THAT was really scary. But I loved it!
I think the Unicorn Chronicles are better for me because I'm only 7yo and I love unicorns. I'm also liking the man's journey to free his wife. I can't wait to find out how it all ends!
By the way, you write some really weird books, but it's weird in a cool way. My dad's from Syracuse, too, and he says that lots of weirdness comes from Syracuse. 😛

I have been reading the My Teacher is an Alien Series to my 4th grade classes for about 20 years and always find that the subject matter is relevant no matter what year it is. The students love reading and listening to these books and I enjoy their reaction. This year I've decided to forego the reading textbook and use these books to teach the reading skills, grammar, vocabulary and spelling necessary in my ILA curriculum. I can't wait to start. These books are a treasure and I'm so grateful to have found them all those years ago.
