Shadows of the Apt

Was my first thought when I got a big ol' box of The Scarab Path from Tor UK this week. Yes, I did write it, but I had no idea it would be so enormous in print. Anyone who felt they were missing some pages from Blood of the Mantis will find them in Scarab Path (1).
And I owe a huge debt […]

Yes, yes, not been posting much recently, but busy with the book, don'tcherknow. Or books, to be precise. Book 5 (The Scarab Path), which has been running a bit late, has finally been packed off, and I won't see it again until it's actually in print (release date start August). Book 6 (The Sea Watch) has come back […]

Following on from the critically acclaimed soundtrack for Empire in Black and Gold, I now prolong this exercise in vanity just so far. Be warned, here be Spoilers for anyone who hasn't read Dragonfly Falling.
 Dragonfly Falling (un)original Soundtrack
Track 1 — The Wasps come to Tark (The Blitz, from The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by […]

Another Babel Clash entry here following on from an intriguing story I read by George RR Martin.

Another rant on Borders' site to be found here.

1. The Polish language book 2 is out, entitled Kleska Wazki (1), or at least I've got my copies through, so it should be out soon. The title is a straight translation of Dragonfly Falling and Jon Sullivan's UK art is on the cover.
2. The German language books are also out, and I think we have threevolumes hitting the […]

Well, this is a piece of vanity and no mistake. However, the idea has grown on me, so here it is: the soundtrack to the movie of Empire and Black and Gold. Well, kind of. I'm something of a soundtrack buff, and my media player is stuffed with the things, and sometimes when I'm writing I'll pick […]

Quick post, odd stuff, such as:
I forgot completely to link this which is issue 70 of Comic Book Outsiders which includes an interview talking about the future of Shadows of the Apt.
I've finished Tom Lloyd's Stormcaller with some delight at watching it take a standard fantasy plot, lure it close by playing coy, and then kick it repeatedly in […]

Obviously the best way is to turn up at a signing, however…
For those that can't, for reasons geographical or otherwise, I now have a solution, as promised.
Byron Godfrey, who runs the independent bookshop in Garforth where I live, is able to provide signed copies on request, on the basis that I can pop down and sign some for him as […]

Firstly, thanks to everyone who pitched up at the various signings.
For those that didn't, and that do want a signed copy, watch this place. I have plans afoot.
It's been a while since the last new story went up, partly because of, you know, writing books'n'all, but also because of being unable for some reason to upload to the site, […]
