An anonymous reader writes: Well, it's out. I can only find Canadian sites listing the leak. I found the Full book online after the partial book was posted earlier. Someone got an actual book and posted camera shots in jpg format of the book itself. This is no hoax. I've read the ending cause I'm a weenie and didn't want it ruined for me. Good story. I'll still be in line at midnight to buy my 2 copies. Thanks JK, love it. http://www.canada.com/nationalpost/news/story.html ?id=782b5d71-685a-4566-9d14-e81a3246e7b8&k=22091
