Quick update. Now just waiting on my approval copy. That should be through some time in the week. Providing that's ok, the book will be going on sale straight away! As promised, I'll be offering a signed copy on this forum as a prize soon. |

And the fiction is indeed Fantastical!
I do think that your agent is a very reliable bloke, but then again, I'm a bit biased, being a member here and all.
Very nice looking site you got there nerf, and I'm looking forward to seeing If Aftermath's going to be released oversees (see: NZ). Hope that Remembrance is going well.

Yep, the agent is a good chap and I wouldn't want anyone else to do the job. But don't tell him I said that or his head will get even bigger and we wouldn't want that now, would we?  As for availability, initially, the book should be available online worldwide for sure (on Amazon and such sites) and for order at bookshops in any territories other than the UK. We're looking into the position in the UK at the moment... The site has some work to go on it yet, but I think it's going pretty well so far. 'Remembrance' is in the research stages at the moment. I've got a hell of a lot to do as it will pretty closely follow the course of the real World War I but with a few twists. It's gonna be fun! |

It sounds like fun! Have you read anything by Harry Turtledove? He does a heck of a lot of Alternate History, and my brother has read almost all of his stuff.

Cant wait for my copy, reading the first draft kept me hooked which is pretty rare these days with me reading. I find it very easy to get distracted after 5 lines, but I read many chapters at a time of this one. Congrats on the release Tony [edit] Oh wait I already said all that stuff in the reply at the top of the page haha, ah well shows I meant it |

The approval copy came! Brendan's cover pic really looks great! My esteemed editor needs to make a few changes to the text size and stuff but it looks like we should still be on schedule for an end of October release. Rock on! |
