Read Brett Yet?
On April 28, The Desert Spear will go on sale in paperback in the UK, and I’m pretty damn psyched about it for numerous reasons, not the least of which is the excerpt from The Daylight War which will see print for the first time in this edition.
But that’s not all, no sir. Because the awesome folks at Voyager put together a heck of an ad campaign to go with it, and I am really psyched about that.
First off, those of you looking to read The Great Bazaar but unable to afford the super-rare printed edition or access the US eBook, fear not! The same day the paperback comes out, The Great Bazaar will go on sale as an eBook from your favorite e-vendor. Next year, TGB will have a printed edition in the UK as well.
Second, from April 25-May 9, this AWESOME WH Smith poster will grace major station stops all over London:
I am kind of annoyed I won’t be in London to see it in person. If any of you UK readers out there see one, take a picture for the blog, preferably with yourself in it!
In addition to this unbelievable coolness, there will be bookend-style ads in gaming magazines in May:
Waterstones will be promoting BOTH books in May as well. So much awesome I could burst.
Oh man, I want one of those posters! I love your books, man. I haven’t quite finished Spear, but I love it so far…just a hundred or so pages left. Keep it up, man. You’re writing is great!
BLG
Hey Pete,
I’ll be in London on May the 21st for an acting audition. If I find any of those posters I’ll take a photo for you.
I haven’t seen any of them yet (I just came back from another audition in London), but I saw your books in the bookstore.
This is well cool! because i havent saw any press over in the UK for these books! (which certainly do deserve it)
Love the books, I’m blastin through the the spear for the fourth time right now, jones’n for some daylight war. Anyway that an american fella thats been on this band wagon since the first fiddle started can feast his eyes on that excerpt wihtout place’n an order with a UK vendor?
Either way, here’s hopin all those people fear’n the end of the world are wrong. Your in the top three on my list of stories I’ll be pissed if I die before finishing.
Epic posters!
Any chance this graphic will be offered in a large size so us uber fans can make a cool wallpaper for our PC or e-readers?
BTW, I love your books and can’t wait for The Daylight War.
Large digital file that is… sorry I wasn’t clear on that.
Beautiful! Succint, catchy, eye popping. My answer to ‘Read Brett Yet?’ … YOU BET! I agree with the others – would love a poster!
Succinct, I mean. Fat fingers, small letters on touch screen – not a great combo.
I want that poster! If I lived in the UK, they would find one missing LOL Is there any chance the Saviour Vs Conqueror will be released as a poster? Because I would have no choice but to buy it LOL
Also, I am seconding the request for wallpapers ;-p
Here is the largest digital file I have. I do not have the native art files:

Dizzy, the Daylight War excerpt is also available on the US eBook. Hopefully it will be in future printings of the paperback, but don’t quote me on that.
Peat,
You’re ‘The Man’. Thanks for coming through on the large digital file. Hopefully I can put together some Wallpapers. Woot!
Just found your Demon Cycle series and I am hooked! Great stuff and already can’t wait for third book. You have a fan for life!
