Arriving at Platform 1…

The renowned writer and reviewer D F Lewis has completed one of his legendary ‘Realtime Reviews” of Rustblind and Silverbright. Des was at the launch event itself, and seems to love the book, describing it in his ever-idiosyncratic style as “its own Holy Grailtrack”. He also says “This book no longer surprises me as one gem follows another, all skilfully chosen by the book’s over-arching force of creation…”

Des’s technique is such that he (uniquely among reviewers) makes it almost impossible for me to paraphrase his review without giving undue weight to one story over another, so dear reader, you’ll just have to read his review in its entirety here. Suffice to say he enjoyed every story and predicts this will be rated as one of the best anthologies of the year.

Moonshine 03

There is just a day or two left to get a copy of Moonshine Express complete with personalised bookplates – or a hand-lettered copy of Rustblind and Silverbright (or both!).  With the launch out of the way on Thursday, preorders will close.  It is fair to assume that if you miss getting one of these, there will be VERY few chances for a personalised copy of Moonshine – EVER!
