Welcome
Welcome, finally, to my website. Here's info on me, my books and other writings, what I'm up to, and the inevitable deeply self-absorbed blog. Visit, graze, leave a comment, then go out into the sunshine and read.

Because it won the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize, my lovely publishers Walker Books have brought the paperback of The Knife of Never Letting Go up to this very week! Yes, yes, Amazon says 3 Nov still, but it was shipped from the Walker warehouses today (if everything went according to plan), so it should be in bookstores - and at Amazon - by about Wednesday.
And here's a picture of the cover they've done, which looks even better on the real thing because the Noise is covering it in gloss. Cool stuff.
I've also made a rare update to the Events tab, so take a look. I'm appearing at the UCS Beyond Words Festival on 17 November, and as part of the Big Science Read in Manchester (actually, Bury for my particular event) on 29 November, which is moderated by Katherine Beacon, one of my favourite people in the world. How nice if I see you there (and more to come...)
