Pub day
I might well go to the pub today because - yay - "Varho: The Hong Kong Dark is published today.
I first started in on what became Varho in early 2014 with an image from a Rudy Rucker novel that I could not shake. I was meant to write an entirely different story but that vision hung in my mind. Then as the year wore on events in Hong Kong erupted in ways that compelled me to make my story contemporary and involve the real world events around me.
However it was another two years before I was able to complete the tale of Lucius Varho, Zanna Lowe, Alexis Vasser and her nefarious partner Cheng. (Does anyone ever use the word nefarious except in book blogs?). Now Varho's story is out. Spin Shift have done a great job with the cover and book design.
And now the follow up story is consuming me - I just have to find out what happens to Zanna and Lucius.
You can find Varho: The Hong Kong Dark at all the usual online stores - with the iBooks store coming soon.
