Sorry, been a bit busy updating the Booktrust site and reclaiming my identity on a particular networking site (to remain nameless) to update here.

But now I can, with the lovely news that the French version of The Knife of Never Letting Go is out.  It's called La Voix du Couteau and has a beautiful and completely different cover.  In fact, let me paste it in. 

Now, of course, The Ask and the Answer is just days away from release, but if you prefer French and would like to read the original, here's your chance, translated by Bruno Krebs and published by Gallimard Jeunesse (who are really nice people, every time I meet them)

Vive la France!
