Out on THURSDAY! YES, THIS THURSDAY!
Yes, at last. The book's out and it will be EPIC. It will be the sort of EPIC that will sweep all other forms of EPICNESS before it. Think Conan with Gamma Radiation, hailing from the planet Krypton and adopted by the Wayne family out in Gotham.
I'm hoping you'll be up early, visiting your local bookshop with your £6.99 (about teh price of two of your parents' lattes at Starbucks) clutched tightly in your sweaty fist.
Frankly, take £13.98, buy two copies and keep one hermetically sealed so it will forever remain perfect.
I really, REALLY wish I could tell you something about it. For those who haven't read book 1, look away now for SPOLIERS will follow and you should be thoroughly ASHAMED of yourselves for not having a copy. No wonder people look at you strangely when you walk down the street. That's right, the ARE staring at you.
SPOILERS
At the end of Ash #1, we know Ash has become PRETTY BADASS. After all, he his now the deathless servant of Kali, the Kali-aastra, her divine weapon. So, book 2 opens with him back in London, trying to hold it together and be NORMAL. Not easy when you can kill with a touch. He thinks his problems are over, beyond asking Gemma out on a date at Guy Fawkes Night.
But Savage comes, and he has a mind-blowing plan that requires the aid of Ash. Now you may think that's impossible, after what happened in Book 1, but Savage hasn't survived all these centuries without having plans within plans. The guy's tricky and we find out quite how tricky he is. Which is REALLY tricky.
Anyway, we have all the usual, extreme violence, horror, a few laughs, ancient tombs, demons, and more magical mischief than at the stag party of the head boy at Hogwarts.
ASH MISTRY AND THE CITY OF DEATH. It why writing was invented.

Dear Chevy, You've very kind, I'm blushing. Yeah, I know all about being in the red. Right, in theory the book should be available in Oz right now, or pretty soon since the Commonwealth countries get their copies the same time as the UK do. Failing that you always have good ole Amazon! And be pepared, the end of the book turns EVERYTHING upside down, big time. SarwatPosted by: Sarwat
A really important question. Really!

Hi Sarwat, When will your book be available in Australia and if you say, a really really long time., then would I be better off buying it from England or better still, wouldn't it be really cool if you could just send me one as my mum says that sometimes authors keep multiple copies of their books under their beds and she said she will send you the money because she really likes you because I read your books and I just blew all my money on a mountain bike and I even owe our swear jar 50 cents so she says that's called being in the red and that I should get used to that. Thanks Chevy. I'm 12. I live in Castlemaine in Australia. I think you are awesome!!!Posted by: Chevy Barnes Librio
