Family was delayed due to a couple of problems at the printers but it is shipping now.

"nything AND I MEAN ANYTHING by Brian Aldiss i have no idea why he is so revered in sci fi writing as (and im not kidding here) i could write better than him and i am pants at writting"

BLASPHEMY! Sorry, but Aldiss is one of my favourite SF writers of all time. Report on Probability A is the best book where nothing happens. Beautifully done. As for Aldiss not being able to write, sorry but that's just ridiculous. Aldiss's prose work is some of the best in the SF field.

Anyway, poo books. Really wish I hadn't bothered with the first three Thomas Covenant books by Donaldson. Also The Vampire Lestat made me angry.

The spines on the hardbacks are pretty much the same as they have always been. On the paperbacks there is a slight change in that the spines are now black with coloured text.

Hello
Yes, the October books should be due in any day now. I've seen the advanced copies already and they are looking good. We've gone for a nice matt finish on the paperback covers which really does make them look classy.

Cheers

Hulloh! Sorry I didn't pop in early, been madly busy.
You don't have to have professional writing experience no. As long as you can write well, that's all that matters.
Just to clarify: This is NOT a line of 2000AD novels. These are entirely new.

Cheers

I'll be there. Looking forward to it. First time for me too,

Books of Inavasions: Volume 1 incorporating Moloch and Golamh will be released mid-January 2006.

All The Best

Bit of a clarification on the Slaine Book.
Book of Invasions 1 will actually contain the first two stories: Moloch and Golamh with additional never before seen art by Clint Langley. The director's cut of the book if you will.
Should be a corker!

Hello All

I  am just working on Invasions Book 1 now as a matter of fact and it will be out for January 2006. It contains the three stories Moloch, Golamh and Scota with, of course, mouth-wateringly good art from Clint Langley.

All The Best

In reply to Amstor Computer.

Yes to those books that you list by months but it is Red Seas: Book 1, Under The Banner of King Death instead of Twilight of The Gods.

Bec & Kawl 1 and Leviathan will be coming out in 2006.

All The Best

Jon

Mornin' all, I trust you're all up bright an early just like me!
Anyhew, now that I have a wee bit of time before I start getting down to more editing I'll just tell you about some books. In October we have Judge Dredd: Satan's Island (this is the Wagner Sin City story) which also contains The Case For The Defence and The Trial of Orlok, we also have Rogue Trooper: The Eye of The Traitor, book 3 of the Rogue books, and Family, the mafia with super-powers.
There will indeed be more Nikolai Dante before the end of the year with the release of The Courtship of Jenna Makarov and the Judge Dredd: Case Files book is due for December as is the next Robo Hunter book. Also on the horizon will be more Slaine, more Rogue, more Strontium Dog and some Caballistics amongst other things.
Anyhew, hope those books pique your interest, I will post a NEWS release nearer the time and the books will be available through the website and all the usual channels.
Right, back to editing with me!
