Today has been dedicated to a day-job push of work, so I regret to confess that I don't have much in the way of blogging fodder. I went to the post office and made myself some tea. That's pretty much it.
However! I do have news regarding the
Ganymede audiobook: It's finally gone live! You can get it
here from Audible
. I don't recognize the reader's name, but I'm sure he does a smashing job.
In order to preempt some questions I can already see coming a mile away: No, I don't know why they chose a man to read this one - though about half the POV is Andan Cly's; no, I don't know why they didn't get Kate Reading to cover Josephine's portions; no, I still don't know what the delay was; and I apologize to everyone outside the U.S., for I wish I had an audiobook to offer you, too; no, that kind of thing isn't up to me.
If you have further questions, post them in the comments to this entry and I'll respond as I'm able.
In other news, I have two helpful links to offer up before I log off to chase down some supper:
First up - a truly wonderful review over at Tor.com, courtesy of the inimitable Ay-leen the Peacemaker:
This is American Steampunk
. I swear, there's nothing more pleasant and flattering than watching a smart person think about your material, and respond to it at length. I can't thank Ay-leen enough for taking the time and trouble!
Next, I have a handy-dandy link that could win you a fat stack of steampunk books for free:
Steampunk sweepstakes!
All you have to do is sign up for the Tor.com newsletter (an inoffensive document, I assure you - as I'm a subscriber myself) ... and you'll be entered for a chance to win 16 steampunk tomes, including
Boneshaker,
Dreadnought, and
Ganymede. Go check it out!
Thanks for reading, everyone. And here, just in case you've got your clicking fingers all warmed up and want some brand new steampunk pulp adventure action:
