    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    When Nick falls out with his mother's new boyfriend, he runs away, and soon meets a group of human statues, performing in the town centre. Nick finds he has a talent for this too, and is soon 'discovered' by the mysterious genius Antonin, and whisked away to a training centre for human statues. There, Nick's growing love for another performer, Swan, is set against his ambitions and fears as he realizes the darker side of what is going on at the centre.
