Is that the title of the first of the Noveletts that the Master is coming out with??? :cool:
The Tor website is projecting a publishing date of July 2003 for this release in Hardcover. :D

I'm not totally sure, but I think that's the title of the book that will contain all of the novelettes.
Or at least all the ones written so far...

Not at all Canker ..... I am also waiting with baited breath for more Necroscope --- Certainly a highpoint of the year. Who needs Harry Potter - when the real Harry is coming to a bookshop near you soon!!!!
:eek:

Any specualtion on what part of Harry's life these will feature? Think it'll be different periods throughout the whole saga or related only to one specific time period?

I haven't heard anywhere the actual period the stories will be set. I reckon they could be from various segments .... maybe tying up loose ends but adding to the overall necroscope 'universe'. Wherever I can't wait to see what The Master comes up with .... I can see the majority coming from the Vampire World, possibly while on Starside with the Lady Karen - to be honest I don't know, but its great to mull it over! :D

I would like some explaination as to who Helen was - see Necroscope Knowledge - maybe that question can be answered. ;)
Anyway, I am very much looking forward to the new book. I wonder if I can order it yet.....

When Johno and I were talking to Brian about it on Friday night, Brian said that the new stuff is set just after the Lost Years (if memory and Red Bull serve me right!)

I placed my order on Friday and now I'm just giddy with excitement, can't wait to get my grubby little mits on it cos I'm almost done with the E-branch trilogy (again) and I'm sadly ineed of a strong fix of Keogh, even though I'm enjoying the E-branch books more this time around it's not the same without Harry being the main focus (I'm like a love sick puppy who can't except a breakup)
God I miss those innocent eyes (whimper)

I was just checking out amazon.co.uk. and my order still hadn't been updated t tell me about the shipping, although amazon now say 7-8 days for delivery on the product details... then I noticed the price of the book in my account, differed from that on the site - by about £1.. so I cancelled my order, placed a new one, and behold, it's cheaper, and I now have a delivery estimate... (about a week)
So I recommend any of you that placed a pre-order check their accounts smile.gif

Febuary next year being to long and amazon not responding to any of my emails have led me to follow Top's advice...
The sooner Tor come to the UK the better!

Likewise .. decided to cancel and then re-order, so at least I now have an expected date of arrival.

Had a large package from Amazon this morning - I was hoping they might have slipped one in there without telling - as a surprise, you know... But no :(
I'm starting not to like Amazon - I think we should join together and invite TOR to do a deal with Brit wholesalers (where contracts allow) they have too many titles and authors on their books that we just cannot get over here other than via Amazon and their ilk.
Have FP got any HK & Other Heros in yet?

I wouldn't blame amazon for this, they are generally pretty good - you could alway order from their american counterpart and wait 6 weeks for delivery to get here, then get busted by customs, and have to pay an extra £7 on top, or just wait 2 weeks, to get it from .co.uk
I never thought I would ever say this, but patience is a virtue!

Just checked my amazon account and it specifies that the books are packing and the order cannot be changed ... this normally means the items are dispatched a day later. The delivery date is still estimated as the 16th however!?!?!
Ah well .. just have to see, but hopefully it'll drop on my mat over the next few days .... we'll have to keep each other informed.
