The 20th July post on Chris' website says - if it is 'Silver' - that it's slated for release in May 2013? (unrelated, I've just had a brain freeze and forgotten what year it is currently... and looking at 2013, I feel depressingly old ... didn't help today that I realised it's been twelve years since I found Broken Sky and that I still have all of the original books...) Either it's not the same book or Amazon UK likes to be annoying and make pages for books nearly two years in advance...

Okay, that's weird then... I failed to read the bit about it being slated for 2013 so - what is this?! Maybe amazon made a mistake or is, as you said, being mean like that... or it's really something altogether different. Curiouser and curiouser.

If the publisher date is the release date, then it should be out on the 1st January 2012... which is still miles before May 2013.
I'm thinking it's a different novel, or it's been written realllly quickly, but there's nothing on his site about it that I can see. Not even Google is coming up with anything else.

Oooh, yes, I forgot about that. PALE is an SF story I wrote ages back for an imprint called Barrington Stoke, who make books for kids with reading difficulties. So basically it's a book written for 14 year olds who have a reading age of about 10. I didn't mention it anywhere 'cause I didn't want people buying it and then feeling cheated because the writing style and story are very simple and basic. So anyway, there it is! SILVER is still set for May 2013, yup. I'm about a third of the way through it. Are you a famous illustrator yet, Kath? I'm waiting for your first exhibition in London

Ah, okay. That explains it. Well, at least something to pass the time with. What's it about? Err... Not famous yet but I'm working on it.

Me too It's a little what-if tale about what might happen if there was a drug that allowed you to come back from the dead and live forever... WooOOOooOOooo... Something like that, anyway.

One day, one day...! *stands on cliff and looks out into the sunset* Ui, that does sound intriguing. Though I guess it'd get pretty crowded pretty fast. If that'd promote finally colonizing the galaxy I'm all for it, though.
