The Skull Throne Tour: the Grim Gathering
Posted by Meg
Last night, Peat traveled to Reading and Bristol to chat with fans and sign copies of The Skull Throne. It was also the third Grim Gathering with Joe Abercrombie, Peter Newman and Mark Lawrence. Check out the pictures:

Next stop on the U.K. tour will be in Birmingham at 12:00pm this afternoon. Or you can catch Peat tonight in Liverpool at 6pm. All tour stops are listed here.
Gutted our little group missed you in the pub (large rowdy group of lads got in the way…Doh!), but thanks again for the signing. Great event, great people and great to meet you. They say you shouldn’t meet your heroes. I say meh! to that, for last night many of us met four of ours.
Roll on next year’s Grim Gathering!
One of the best answers of the evening was Peat’s to the question
“Which character in fantasy would you most like to punch in the face?”
After some thought “Dumbledore” – a bold choice, but one we understood when it was explained.
