Hello...Hello...Hello
Waits for the echoes to die away.
Well, I've been gone for awhile. No particular reason except that life has been so quiet that there's been little of note happening. But that's changing, as India Black and the Gentleman Thief will be released on February 4th and is available for pre-order now.
But that's not the only news I have. The India Black Series has been sold to a British publisher.Titan Books will release the first two titles in April. I received the covers for these last week, and here they are:
Titan is an interesting company with an emphasis on comics, graphic novels, historical and adventure fiction, film and television tie-ins, science fiction and detective novels. After looking at their list of representative authors and books, I think it will be a great fit for India.
Finally, RT Book Reviews has the first review of Gentleman Thief. Unfortunately, you have to subscribe to the magazine to read it, or wait another few weeks when they will make it available to the general public. I can tell you that it received four and a half stars and has been designated a TOP PICK.

Splendid!
In 1851, the Great Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations opened in London. Queen Victoria's husband, Prince Albert, was a driving force behind this spectacular display of machinery, inventions and products from around the world. The purpose was to showcase Britain's role as the foremost industrialized nation of the world, and it was a huge hit. A third of the British population, over 6 million people, viewed the exhibition. The proceeds were used to establish the Victoria and Albert Museum.
The event was held in a purpose-built building, the Chrystal Palace.
Made of iron and glass, the building was 1851 feet long, 454 feet wide, and contained almost one million square feet of space. It was remarkably modern in design and was a real feat of engineering. Sadly, it burned in 1936.
Now, the Crystal Palace will rise again. This is wonderful news for Victorian enthusiasts. Can't wait to see it.
