Answer
"Sarah Strange's life was what you might call ordinary. Then her mother died.
Now Sarah has visions -- visions of a place where dragons darken the sky and a young girl is fighting to survive.
When Sarah confides in her best friends, Mal and Kierlan, about the devastation in her dreams, she discovers that her friends are not what they seem. They are part of the Night World -- and they believe Sarah has a special role in their world. And if Sarah's visions are any indication of the impending danger and destruction, there is no time to lose.... "
First, it was said to be released in April 2010, then it was April 2011, now it's scheduled to be released on July 26, 2011. It's been put off for a decade so why not a couple more years? Hopefully this last predicted release date will be the final release date.

Answer
The top 10 book publishers in the US are as follows of 2001:
From the sales figures noted (all in millions) we could infer their
individual market share. Remember that the total book sales for the US
are $25,356,500,000.
1. Mc-Graw Hill $4,645.5 (in millions) (18.32% market share)
2. Random House (Owned by Bertelsmann) $1,760.8 (6.9% market share)
3. Harcourt General (owned by Reed Elsevier Group) $2,408.2 (9.5%
market share)
4. Verlagsgruppe Georg von Holtzbrinck $2,214.4 (8.7% market share)
5. Scholastic $1,962.3 (7.7% market share)
6. Pearson $6,290 (24.8% market share)
7. Houghton Mifflin (owned by Vivendi Universal Publishing) $1,027.6
(4%)
8. HarperCollins (owned by News Corp.) $975.5 (2000 figures) (3.8%
market share)
9. John Wiley $613.8 (2.4% market share)
10.Simon & Schuster (owned by Viacom) $648.7 (2.6% market share)
From these figures it can be surmised that the top 10 book publishers
have 88.72% of the market.
None of the ten (or any of the other A List publishers) can be contacted directly. They do not accept unsolicited manuscripts. They deal with A List Agents only. Pax - C
