Alas, it's not GODBORN, but I'm hoping that a listing for GODBORN will hit Amazon and B&N soon. November 2012 is the scheduled release date and I understand the listings appear about nine months before release.

In the interim, I want to mention that the first of my original sword and sorcery novels from Angry Robot Books, entitled THE HAMMER AND THE BLADE, does, in fact, have listings at the big online book sellers. I'm posting this here (and I hope it's all right) because I'm certain that anyone who's enjoyed my Cale stories will love the stories of Egil and Nix.

I talk more about the books and the importance of preorders on my blog. I hope you'll have a read. http://paulskemp.com/blog/the-hammer-and-the-blade-available-for-pre-order/

Yayyy! No more Nickleback earworms for me!!!

Thanks for the very reasonable and objective 10 reasons list Paul!
Please can you use little kitties next time instead of puppies? I don't want to disappoint those little kitties by not buying your book. Hey wait! Not necessary anymore, you already got me with the Nickleback exorcism!

I agree and I'm glad that's the case. :-)

Tanthalas,

I'm honestly not sure of the format in the UK. I presume it will be both paperback and mass market, but don't know for sure.

I'm sure one will be, 9th (same as it was with THE HAMMER AND THE BLADE).

Na, no snippets for me this time! I will buy the novel anyway the very same day it is ready for download!
Tanthalas Posted - 22 Feb 2013 : 02:01:42
I hope Godborn is going along nicely.

I'm anticipating A discourse in Steel, but I'd rather not read the snippet or it'll make the waiting even more hard to endure.

Don't hope. Instead, pray to Shar.
I'm not sure that she's the goddess to pray to, when you want delivery of a physical item.
Hm. That's supposed to be a joke. Or sarcasm. I've lost hope in seeing that book long ago. I refuse to believe until I actually see the physical item. Hoping breeds disappointment.

And, by way of update, the manuscript for THE GODBORN is now in the hands of my editor. Can't wait for this to hit shelves. I believe you will dig. :-)

Tanthalas Posted - 01 Nov 2012 : 20:48:09
That's some great news. I wish Godborn and A Conversation in Blood would come sooner though. :(
skychrome Posted - 01 Nov 2012 : 19:59:40
So many good news with such a small post! Awesome Paul!
