It's been a little while, but a couple of things have happened:
The Reef was reviewed in the Guardian a couple of weeks ago – which is terrific news:
"Newton treads new ground in his attempt to bring literary concerns to the fantasy genre. The result is a sometimes uneven path between fantastical exoticism and the more mundane aspects of the mainstream, but a path nevertheless worth taking."
It continues to sell well at Waterstones (though I presume so since the wholesaler, Gardners, sends me new orders practically every day…)
No-Man and Other Tales has also been reviewed at Zone-SF, and again it is rather splendid:
"… living proof that Richards is getting better and better as a storyteller and a creator of well carved characters. Which is good news not only for the fans of novellas but for any lover of solid and entertaining dark fiction."
Copies still available, and you know where to buy a copy of either – or both. :)

Back on an even keel…

Hope everyone had a pleasant New Year and the festivities? Here's too 2008, eh?
Anyway, normality is sort of returning to PP towers…
Received the signed bookplates for No-Man and Other Tales, with the pre-orders despatched – yours should be with you in a day or so. Thanks for your patience.
The Reef is about to be proofed ready for printing, and I've just started working on Triquorum III which I hope to bring out at Eastercon along with the above novel. Talking of Triquorum, a new review just appeared over at SF Crowsnest for the first instalment – praising in particular John Grant's tale.
Oh, and a couple of high-profile reviews surfaced for New Writings in the Fantastic: both above-average write-ups in the newsstand magazines SFX and Death Ray.
Why not buy a copy to find out for yourself – that is, a copy of the book (though I'm sure the magazines would also like your cash).
Anyway, that's it for now…
