Too Hot For North America!!

Fun news today for everyone outside North America. I've released new "author’s cut" e-book editions of the Plague Year trilogy. Due to my contracts with Ace, the new editions aren't available in the U.S. or Canada -- and this weekend, the first book is free. 😉

Here's the revised jacket copy:

At last, the author’s cut of the bestselling apocalyptic thriller! The all-new Plague Year is twenty pages longer, less expensive, and packed with artwork.

“Terrifying.” —Scott Sigler
“Riveting.” —David Brin
“Rock-hard realistic.” —James Rollins

The nanotech was intended to save lives. Instead, it killed five billion people, devouring all warm-blooded lifeforms except on the highest mountain peaks.

The safe line is 10,000 feet. Below, there is only death. Above, there is famine and war. Mankind’s final hope rests with a scientist aboard the International Space Station — and with one man in California who gambles everything on a desperate mission into the ruins of the old world…

BookBub Book Buster

I have a writer friend who’s seen great success with BookBub, an ebook promo site that’s recently hit 1,000,000 subscribers. Since I’m a wild-eyed e-revolutionary now, he convinced me to give ’em a try. See what you think.

Crazy Carlson’s The Frozen Sky is featured now! 🙂

Fun TV/net interview with “Cult Pop”

The good “Double J” team at Cult Pop just released my third interview on their fun, awesome show.

Always a pleasure!

Cult Pop host Jim Hall and studio master Jerry Jesion bring their passion, deep knowledge of sf/f, and some trick questions to the program. And I drink too much coffee. Aha ha ha.

You can find the new episode here…

Great News In 2013!!!

First: I’m alive. I know it’s been quiet for a few weeks. With the holidays and a killer deadline, I’ve been a busy little duck. Back now!

Second: How’s this for an awesome new endorsement of The Frozen Sky!?!?!

“The Frozen Sky combines Golden Age roots with modern-day sensibilities to create a story that is gripping, intelligent, and entirely new. Highly recommended.”
—Seanan McGuire, New York Times bestselling author of Midnight Blue-Light Special

Wow. THANK YOU!!

Third, the Plague Year trilogy has sold in Dutch to a publisher with the awesome name of MACC Zilverspoor, which makes me think of Roger Zelazny, precious metals, and the evil, alien, interstellar spoor seeds from Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Zilverspoor. How can you go wrong with a name like that!? 🙂

Zilverspoor has posted the Plague Year book trailer on their site with announcements that I can’t read in their extremely cool language. Check it out! I love the extra vowels. It looks a bit like Czech to me. My editors there are good, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable. I can’t wait to see the books.

More soon.
