That new book smell...

Copies of my first novels, The Cold Highways Trilogy have turned up today.

It's quite exciting unpacking a big box full of your own work, though it has taken a while to get this far and it's still a long way from a career.

It's also strange as I'm nearly at the end of my newest novel and I feel I've come a long long way from the kind of writer I was when obsessing over those books.

Anyhow, to preserve the memory, here are a few pictures of the unpacking.

Cold Highways is available from most online book retailers.

Cold Highways: The Complete Trilogy - Out Now!

Cold Highways

I'm happy to announce that my first three novels are finally available in one volume, as a complete paperback.

This 6x9 paperback contains all three books - The Dead, Cities And Signs, and Aires Deep.  Standing complete at just under 550 pages.

It also features a wonderful cover photograph by Emily Ings, who recently also did the cover for Margaret Atwood's Alias Grace.

As more sales channels open up, the book will be available from other sites, at present though - visit Amazon for the hard copy.

The three books are also available in single paperback editions or as a downloadable ebook for the Kindle or Kindle android phone apps.

You can download a free sample of the books by visiting the Kindle store here.
