Nerf (Scifishocks) is taking part in a 48hr Tweetathon starting midnight (GMT) Sunday to help promote The War of the Worlds: Aftermath. He's planning some crazy antics and also one or two prize giveaways. If you're on Twitter follow him - www.twitter.com/Scifishocks. Also as part of the promotion the Kindle version has been reduced to only 74p! A bargain! |

I have already posted a review, last year. But I have now added comment to the review By S. Johnson "sijon" Every little helps.  Here's my comment: A good review and I agree with most of it. I've not read 'Edison's Conquest of Mars' however I have read Gabriel Mesta's (aka Kevin J. Anderson) 'The Martian War'. Mesta treated the whole thing as a farcical comedy and I became irritated with his repeated self-congratulatory pats on the back at the amount of research into Wells' background. A sequel to a classic like War of the Worlds should be treated with a bit more respect and I feel Tony Wright has done this with 'Aftermath'. |

Didn't know that. I don't own a kindle so I assumed that I'd need a kindle to read it.

My copy came a few days ago. I started to wonder if it was going to turn up at all, as we had ordered it on Christmas day and only got it recently. Looking forward to reading it! |

Blimey! Where do you live? On Mars? That's terrible! Haha, while sometimes it feels like it no I don't, anyway even if I did live on Mars I wouldn't be able to get a copy of the book because it would be banned as subversive propaganda.  But it was a great read, I finished it last night and it was very enjoyable. When I work out how to put a review on Amazon I will. Weren't you also working on a Remembrance book to Nerfy? |

Weren't you also working on a Remembrance book to Nerfy? The front and back cover artwork has already been finished, Nerfy only has to fill in all the blanc pages between.  Simples |

Good work, Nerfy! Congratulations for doing so well! ;D
I have to read Aftermath ASAP and put in my own two cents on it.
