In the Mailbox: La Guaritrice Dei Maghi

In the last month only two parcels have arrived for me. The smaller contained this: That’s the Italian version of The Rogue. The second parcel was much larger and contained the small paperback version of The Rogue, which means it must be available now, or close to it. The books, when unpacked, were dubbed ‘the [...]

Another Ebook Availability Check

It’s been a couple of months since I checked the availability of my books as ebooks in Australia. I was hoping to find that missing books had finally been ‘fixed’ but didn’t really expect to see any changes. Well, it turned out there were changes, but almost none for the better. Amazon – All books [...]

Ebook Availability Check

It’s been 11 months since I first checked the availability of my books as ebooks in Australia and the last time I investigated was in May, so I thought I’d see if anything has changed. Amazon – All books except Priestess of the White and Voice of the Gods Amazon UK – All books available [...]

Indonesian Voice of the Gods

The Traitor Queen is going well. Last week I passed the big conclusion and this week I’m writing the aftermath and consequence chapters. I managed to squeeze in a bit of work on the Sekrit Projekt and write an outline for short story set a few years after The Traitor Queen, but otherwise I’m not [...]

Things are getting busy here now. I’m aiming to have The Traitor Queen first draft finished by the end of October, then have it all polished up and ready for delivery by the end of November. Writing the final chapters of the final book in a series has got to be the most exciting part [...]

That’s a Lot of Zeros!

Yesterday morning I woke to some amazing news: Orbit has officially broken the 1 million mark for total sales of my print books through UK Bookscan! Thanks to everyone who bought them, gifted them, sold them, borrowed them from libraries and recommended them. And a tip of the hat to the Orbit crew, who really [...]

The Great Reread of 2011 – Reading My Own Books

The main reason I decided to reread all my books set in the Kyralia world was to refresh my memory and lesson the chance of writing inconsistencies into The Traitor Queen. By that I mean details of the world, characters and magical system, as well as plot, that don’t agree across the books. Of course, [...]

The Great Reread of 2011 – ebook formats

A few days ago I finished rereading the Black Magician Trilogy and the first two books of the Traitor Spy Trilogy. For newcomers to this blog, the story so far is this: I decided to reread all of the books in the Kyralia world a) to get all the details fresh in my mind before [...]

The Traitor Queen Blurb

Before I headed off on tour, my publisher asked for a blurb for The Traitor Queen. I didn’t have time to add it to my website then. This morning I remembered I’d written it, so I tweaked it a little and popped it onto the page for the book (under the Books menu above). The [...]

In the Mailbox

These books arrived yesterday: Well, yes, if you’re in Germany you’ll know The Rogue has been out for a while now. It takes a while for books to get to me, and on top of that my agent held onto any mail for me until I got back home. I’m in the middle of my [...]
