Dreadnought Channel: Ahoy!

First of all, I'd like to say thanks to everyone who came out on Saturday to see me at B&N – and send thanks also to the bookstore staff, particularly Covagin* and John, who always go out of their way to be so freaking awesome. The B&N at Northgate has been hugely supportive, and I just can't thank the folks there enough.


So! With that mentioned/lauded/gratefully acknowledged, now on to the Dreadnought and Dreadnought-adjacent news that accumulated over the weekend:

German! I don't speak it! – But that didn't prevent me from doing an interview about steampunk in general and Dreadnought in particular with this fine German publication. I hope the translation is cool, and I'm not talking about all the ways in which I like to stick objects up my nose, or something.


Awesome Dreadnought review at the BirdBrain[ed] book blog – Many thanks to the fine reviewers there, for their hearty enthusiasm on the subject. Fave excerpt: "What's good about it? Lemme list it for ya: zombies! trains! airships! mecha! big action sequences! a strong, independent female lead! (with guns!) a dashingly gruff Texan ranger! soldiers and spies and mad scientists!" Nicely summed up there – thanks again :)


Dreadnought is Pulp Of The Week over at Savage Tales – And huzzah for that! Doc gives this one an 8 out of 10 and is kind enough to recommend it.


Steampunk definitions over at the Mad Hatter Blog – Coming at you with Words of Wisdom (or Dorkdom) from yours truly and a whole host of other genre-appropriate people, including Jess Nevins, Scott Westerfeld, George Mann, my editor Liz Gorinsky, and many others.
