ONE DAY until "The Regicide Report" drops!

How did Bob's new ringtone get him sent to deal with a Dalek invasion in a Birmingham comic shop?

Which civil service department is trying to murder the Queen?

… And when is Mo going to play the final encore on the Bone Violin?

Coming out on January 27th!

@cstross Was Bob supposed to suddenly get the best part of 10 years younger than he was at the start of the series (going from a few years older than me to 5-6 years younger) or was that an oversight?

"Which civil service department is trying to murder the Queen? "

You're playing with Shakespeare? "Let me count the many ways"?

@cstross This moose thought the bone violin had been got rid of in The Annihilation Score by being chucked through a portal to Carcosa? (Then again, she's probably been issued with another one...) <Moose checks BigRiverCo...> Did I really order it in September 2024? Ah well, it's showing as "Dispatched" and expected tomorrow. (I still can't wait to get my hands on it!)

@cstross debating DRM free ebook or heading downtown to Powell's and getting the hardcover edition. Decisions, decisions...

Either way, it's going to be great!

@cstross which option to buy your books sucks the least and gives you the most money? Asking for me. (I'm German)

@Laird_Dave Hardcover from a small local specialist bookstore? I'd recommend Otherlands (in Berlin.) Alternatively, if you can buy the US ebook edition (from Tor.com publishing) it should be DRM free and pays a higher royalty rate than the UK edition.
