Comment on Amortals Cover and First Review by Matt Forbeck

Exactly. Of course, the reviewer lives in the UK, so I can see how this bumps up against her sensibilities. Amortals is set in Washington DC, and the hero is a Secret Service agent who’s nearly 200 years old. It’s as about as American a book as you can get.

“This novel is really American. I mean really American.”

Which, of course, is a selling point over here (in contrast to the books we occasionally have to point out as “Really British. I mean really British.”)

Thanks, Darrell! I have high hopes for it. With three novels due out this summer, it’s going to be a crazy fun time.

Well darn, that was one of the birthday presents I was looking forward to receiving on the 25th. Well, I’ll just have to keep waiting.

Thanks for the info Matt! I’ll keep checking back for updates.

Thanks! The book has been delayed a bit. There should be an official announcement about it very soon. I’ll post something here when that happens.

The estimated release date is next week! Is there an official date yet? Also, will there be some certain time the book will actually be released in stores, similar to Harry Potter book releases where people line up for hours to get the first copies? Because if there are, I will be there.

Can’t wait!

That Puppy Tweets link is empty as of this writing, Matt. I’d love to see what you came up with for dogs to say. What a responsibility!
