Publishers Weekly leads off its science fiction, fantasy and horror reviews this morning with the first published review of Geosynchron. Overall, it's a very nice review indeed. Here it is, minus one minor plot spoiler from chapter 8 that I'd rather be left unspoiled:
Edelman presents a gritty, tech-heavy thriller that builds on cyberpunk tropes in interesting and detailed new ways. The world developed in 2008's MultiReal and 2009's Infoquake has become inflamed with civil war and rebellion...

This weekend I'll be at the Capclave SF convention in Rockville, MD, a con whose slogan is "Where reading is not extinct." Thus the dodo bird with beanie propeller hat mascot on the right.

It's done.
This trilogy that began with something I dashed off on a laptop back in 1997 or 1998 is now, more or less, finished. Complete. Finito. I have some line editing and a couple of appendices still to write ("On the Islanders" and "On the Pharisees," if you must know). But it's a complete story.
Here are some of the things you can expect from Geosynchron, the concluding volume of the Jump 225 trilogy, when it hits the stores in late February-ish of 2010. (Pre-order it on Amazon here....

Now it can be shown: my editor Lou Anders has posted on the Pyr blog the cover art and synopsis for Geosynchron, the last book in my Jump 225 Trilogy. Here, without further ado, it is. (You can also view a larger version.)
The cover painting is once again by the incomparable Hugo Award-winning artist Stephan Martiniere, whose paintings for the covers of Infoquake and MultiReal have been blowing minds for many a month.
And here is the catalog copy for the book, which provides something of a spoiler
