My Reading Habits: for the Royal Literary Fund

 Here's a little podcast on my reading habits for
the Royal Literary Fund.

GHOSTLORD available for advance orders

I'm delighted that my new book, GHOSTLORD, which is set in the same world as WILDLORD, will be out this year with Little Island. The book is available for advanced orders.

You can order it here from Waterstones.
