On 16th September will see the pre-order doors open for a very special edition of my new novel ‘Trail of the Cursed Cobras’, which marks my first foray into the world of Middle Grade fiction. The novel will be released on 15th November.
Anyone pre-ordering a copy here will receive a special hardback edition (the hardback edition will feature an all new cover by Alex Moore) which will be limited to only 100 copies. The special edition will include special dossiers on our infamous five (with portrait art by Conor Boyle) as well as a special prologue only to be found in this edition. There will also be a full colour postcard of the standard hardback and paperback edition cover.
Every copy will, of course, be signed by me.
Here’s the blurb for Trail of the Cursed Cobras to give you a taste of what’s to come.
1982, a typical school day : dodging a demon, getting grief from your dead mum and saving the world…
An ill advised short cut pulls twelve year olds Ada Amaya, Bobby Hourne and their friends into a mystery involving a missing school teacher, who is more than he seems, and an antique puzzle box with a terrible purpose.
As the children race across London to solve the mystery they must battle ancient death traps, shadowy government agencies, truant officers and monsters born of shadow and nightmare.
It’s the end of the world versus five kids from a North London comprehensive school.
The odds are even….
And here is early look at some of the new cover for the special hardback edition.
See you on the 16th!
