The Restoration Game
When it looked like
The Restoration Game would be published in March rather than in July,
Blackwell's on
South Bridge very kindly and cannily offered to host a launch party at (6:30 for) 7 p.m. on Wednesday 17 March at the nearby
Pleasance Theatre. The event is
still on, but will now consist of readings followed by discussion from me, Charles Stross, and Andrew J. Wilson. My own reading will be from
The Restoration Game, and anyone pre-ordering at the event will get an early copy (signed, if you like). [
Update: Charlie will be
reading from his forthcoming Laundry novel,
The Fuller Memorandum - which, if I've remembered some conversations correctly, is partly about an eldritch secret in the Russian/Soviet past. I think we got an
event theme here, folks ... ]
This event is ticketed, but tickets are FREE. Tickets are available from the front desk at Blackwell Bookshop, 53 – 59 South Bridge, Edinburgh, EH1 1YS. For more information or to reserve tickets, please contact Ann Landmann on 0131 622 8206 or
events.edinburgh@blackwell.co.ukThe book has been briefly and favourably
reviewed in The Guardian:
As ever, MacLeod's grasp of political intrigue is first rate, and in Lucy he's created a complex heroine forever in doubt as to the true nature of events.
Labels: coming attractions, local, self-promotion, skiffy
Don't suppose an ebook version is planned for anytime soon?
