Just like the #7 bus, you wait two years for a new Adrian McKinty novel and then two come along at once. Falling Glass from Serpents Tail will be out in early March and in late March Deviant from Abrams. The latter is a Young Adult noir (if such a genre exists) set in Colorado Springs. ..
..
This is a little mock up of the cover done by me which wont look a thing like the real cover. It's a colour inverted photograph of a lighting storm in the Garden of the Gods (in the Springs) where chapter 1 of Deviant takes place.

Brilliant! Um, the news, not the cover. :)
Got anything for an old child?
Love the idea of YA noir.
Adrian McKinty: Deviant.
Yes. Yes, I see.
It sounds interesting, I'm looking forward to it.
You've been holding out on us.
Although when I say "you", I feel a bit like I'm addressing the computer-simulated voice of the artist formerly known as McKinty.
Of course, it's possible that's what we've been doing all along.
Adrian,
Great cover. Did Microsoft release the new version of MS Paint?
Anyway, I'm looking forward to Falling Glass.
Two somewhat unrelated abstract questions for you though:
1. Why do you write? I'm sure you're asked this an readings and books signings and the like, but I'm interested in your answer. I ask because DIWMB had a profound impact on me when I read it several years ago. One that I can't really explain articulately or without sounding like a serious brown-noser.
2. Why do you write a blog? I personally know several bloggers who make a living off of blogging (I have two friends who make six figures from their blogs), but you seem to do it for other reasons. What are they?
Thanks,
Josh
Mike, Joshua
Yeah the joys of paintbox.

Deviant will be for an older age group than the LIghthouse book.s
David
Its all making sense now.
John
Well we'll see if it works.

Not really. Its just one of those interminable delays in the publishing world.

Glad you liked DIWMB. I blog because my family are sick to death of hearing my opinions on just about EVERYTHING.
