Destroyer Of Worlds New Date
February 16th, 2009I’ve just been informed that Victor Gollancz is pulling forward the publication of Destroyer of Worlds: Book Three of Kingdom of the Serpent by one month, from August to July.
I know that will please some people after the last book went in the opposite direction.
I’ll be posting an extract shortly.

World’s End – US Cover Final Version
February 14th, 2009Here’s the final version of John Picacio’s cover for the US publication of World’s End – Age of Misrule Book One out from Pyr in May.
If you compare it to the earlier version I previewed below, you can see some subtle changes that John has introduced to make the work even better. I’m very pleased indeed.
And if you go to John’s blog he details his working method and the process for this piece, with initial sketches included.

Lord Of Silence Cover
February 3rd, 2009Here’s a first look at the cover for Lord of Silence, my fantasy novel coming from Solaris on August 3.
It’s by John Picacio, who has also completed the art for the US editions of the Age of Misrule sequence. Solaris describe it as “a rip-roaring, carcass-surfing (yes,really!) fantasy” which definitely captures the flavour. The blurb: “Vidar is a man tormented – by a lost memory and a vampiric jewel that demands the life energy of others. Now, with a killer loose within his home city, Vidar must solve a three thousand year old religious mystery to unlock the terrifying secrets of his own past.”
You can pre-order the UK version from Amazon here or from your favourite bricks and mortar bookshop.
Or you can pre-order the US version here.
