Odds and Ends

I was very pleased this morning to discover that after a steady decline during its weeks between selling out and going back on press for a second printing, The Painted Man is back in Amazon.co.uk’s Fantasy Bestseller List (currently at #19). Just in time for Christmas!

In other news, Jana and Kris, the folks over at the Reality ByPass blog, have posted an interview with yours truly. Check it out if you have a chance. They ask… different questions than most interviewers.

Also, LibraryThing has started posting reviews of The Warded Man. Two are up so far, and it looks like they will be adding more as advance readers have a look at the US ARC. There’s one there from a fellow going by the moniker Yoyogod, who also put it up on his own blog.

Goodreads is in on the action, too, with a crapload of mini-reviews I hadn’t seen on their Warded Man page.

And for my Polish readers, Monika Frenkiel posted the first review I’ve seen of the Polish translation of The Painted Man, Malowany Czloweik. If you read polish, you can check it out here. Otherwise, you’re stuck with the slapdash Google translated English version.

One response to “Odds and Ends”

  1. About the polish review:

    The review isn’t so great. The spoiler about the story is written nearly the same as on the back of the book and nothing more is being said. It’s just another mundane text, without inspiration
