Judgement

November 8, 2009

Gary Gibson has made Fergus Bannon’s novel, Judgement, available as an eBook.

Fergus is another GSFWC member and he had just started a very promising writing career when real life got in the way.  His  short stories were published in Interzone and several other places, but he didn’t have the time to market his novel properly. Recently, though, he has been talking about getting back to writing again, so this is a fine chance to see what he is capable of doing.

Judgement is an excellent contemporary thriller with a great science-fictional edge and I highly recommend it.

Autumn BFS Mailing

The British Fantasy Society autumn mailing, which includes a chunky Dark Horizons 55 amongst its other wonderments, is being mailed out on the 6th/7th November.

And you can only be sure of getting it by joining the BFS, although a blood sacrifice to the Elder Gods might achieve the same end.
