I went to my local library and was look at books and found the grave thief and i looked for the first two but they don't have them.So should i find the first and the second and read them.Or is it okay to read number three.Then read numbers one and two.

I'm afraid you'll not have a clue what's going on if you read book 3 first - the series isn't constructed that way so you'll miss a lot of the vital background info you need - sorry!

So what is the official date for Ragged Man?

Will there be any copies handed out to your most loyal supporters (hint: me)? or a competition of some kind for a pre-launch copy?

Well, according to Amazon the official date is 19th of August, which I think is their revised guesswork date made up before the book was handed in. They won't want to push it any later than that however as sept etc may start getting more complicated - and i've also told them the last two sold very badly in the first month because of moving the date so there'd be an author hissy fit if i got shafted with a last minute change again.

There will be some sort of competition for pre-launch copies yet. there will be proofs made this time as well so, depending on how many of those have gone out and how many i have, i might even manage two comps.

Whoopee!!

Can't wait. Just say what kind of bribe you want, and I'll make sure you get it!

Hey tom, almost all the characters in your books have exceptionally awesome names, i was just wondering, how did you come up with such kickass names?
