Just a quick note to say I've struck a deal with a digital media company to release lots of my back catalogue, including the unpublished horror novel The Sufferer's Song, for the Kindle, Nook and Sony eReaders very soon. This will also include the release of The Last Angel (which was originally published by DarkTales in the US a decade ago under the name The Secret Life of Colors) and will include a 30,000 word essay about the history of the book including massive outtakes from various rewrites, characters that never made it into the final book, etc. Laughing Boy's Shadow and Angel Road will also be part of the package of releases. I've also struck a deal with Crossroads Press to do an audio edition of the Hoke Berglund stories Fragrance of You, All that Remains is You and Remembering Me, Forgetting You, which will be released under the title The Forgetting Wood and will include the Fragrance of You graphic novel in digital format as a bonus. 

MAY 1st 2010 -
There's been a long radio silence following the release of Silver, but over the next few weeks I'll be adding some new updates, covers etc. So what's been happening over the first few months of 2010?

Big news first: I've just finished the first chapter of the new novel Black Chalice, the first in the Knights of Albion series being published early in 2011 by Abaddon in the UK and US. It's a big classic tale of knights and chivalry with my usual dark nasty slant. I'm having a blast writing King Arthur.

New release: Fantastic TV comes out on May 3rd (Monday) in the UK and US and has already earned itself a couple of cracking reviews at Unbound and Wondrous Reads. I will also be doing a series of radio interviews over the coming weeks to promote the book and generally chat about my addition to tv shows. Fantastic TV is an illustrated celebration of five decades of sci-fi and fantasy series. Featuring interviews with writers and creators of each of the classic shows covered, offering a unique insight into the impact of genre TV from the men and women who brought their visions to life on the small screen. Interviewees reminiscences and the author s loving tributes describe the importance and/or uniqueness of all these different shows; how they relate to the world of genre fiction; how video truly did kill off its radio star predecessor, and how these shows continue to influence the writers and artists of today. 

Monster Town, the debut Logan Savile novella has been released as a limited edition from Bad Moon Books in the US. There are a few of the deluxe hardcovers left. They really are works of art with gold foil stamping, full page art and a wonderful flip-book design.

The first of the Silver translations, Srebro, released by Replika in Poland, has hit the streets a few weeks ago, and I've just been interviewed by the wonderful Kazimeirz Świetlikowski for the Polish website Crime in the Library.  

Over in France, Bibliotheque Interdite have released the first two volumes of the Von Carstein trilogy. While in Italy volume one, Inheritance, has just been released by Oscar Mondadori.

Work in Progress Update - London Macabre is finished, at 140,000 words, and is currently doing the rounds. I've begun mapping out a second Greyfriars novel which is as yet untitled. I've recently finished The Horned Man, a novelette for Jean Rabe's forthcoming DAW anthology, Boondocks.  I've just finished the MGM edits on my Stargate SG-1 novel, The Power Behind the Throne, which I believe should be on the shelves in about 6 weeks now. And then there's Redeus, but rather than go into what, exactly, Redeus is here, I'll direct you over to Steve Chats, but I've got my begging cap out. You've been warned.
