Ha. 'Angry Robot.' If there's a more appropriate publishing house name for Zed, then I can't think of it... (Well, not any that aren't obscene...) Harpers are shit hot, Zed. This is outstanding success. Well deserved, sir, you've worked hard for it. |

Nice one. Angry Robot is fast emerging as a very promising imprint, publishing the likes of Kaaron Warren and Lavie Tidhar - and now Gary McMahon. Oh, and Pretty Little Dead Things is a killer title. |

Thanks again, chaps and chapettes. Angry Robot are great - I'm overjoyed to be going with them on this crazy journey. Kaaron Warren's SLIGHTS was the best novel I read last year )just sneaked it in at the end of December). AR are signing up some great new talent. And me. |

Hooray! trhe photo on the bridge: were you trying to channel Denis Franz from NYPD Blues? [suddenly realizes that people might not know this NBC programme] Think The Sweeny in New York, and mildly up-dated to be set in 'today', but McMahon is nearing retirement and hates playing the new political games and technology. Hmm… much like reality, I suppose… |
