    Congratulations, Alex - I'll be checking this out! Great that you had Adi on board too - as a big Marvel fan as a youngster and aspiring artist, you couldnt have grabbed a better guy!

    Thanks Shane! The first reviews hae been coming in and they seem very positive.

    Working with Adi was a total pleasure - the image is fantastic and the quality of the printing the publisher has done is absolutely first rate - the book has a lovely matt finish with the silver foil lettering.

    As I've offered before on this thread, anyone who buys a copy and would like some signed promo material to go with it just let me know and I'll get it in the post pronto.
    So clever my foot fell off.

    Quick update- book sales developing quite nicely, book is going to be book of the month at some independent bookshops shortly and I’ll be doing signings. Also some articles on me in National publications coming up too.

    Can I humbly ask if you habe bought and read it but haven’t yet had time, could you pop reviews on Amazon and Goodreads for me? The reviews do really help.

    Fyi, I ordered it from our Staffordshire library but they can't obtain it until April due to budget restrictions

    Hi Harry,

    Firstly - thanks very much! Ordering from a library is absolutely great.

    Secondly - what a shame they are operating under such restrictions!


    If anyone else here is able to request a copy from their local library I would be delighted!

    Sales doing well so far. Some fantastic short promo videos have just gone live on TikTok - more to come. Take a look and let me know what you think!

    Congratulations Alex. To get not one, but two books past the gate is an amazing achievement. I wish you all the very best with it.

    Fantastic! I'm delighted to hear that. Please thank him for me and if you could leave a review on Amazon and Goodreads I'd be very grateful.

    Next installment is coming along nicely!

    I hope he loves it!

    It is suitable for Young Adults (ie about 13 or 14) and upwards to us grown-ups, and the young at heart!

    Free eBook if you would like one!

    Hi all,

    Book has been selling steadily, but is about to go into a new marketing round with some national coverage, a blog tour and me doing some signings etc. It is also garnering some broadcast media interest, but that is still very much early days at the moment. I have also been asked to work on some scripts, which is nice!

    As a result, I have some eBook copies to give away free!

    If you would like one - completely gratis - then please let me know an email address to send to.

    All I ask is that you pop a review/rating etc on Amazon and/or Goodreads.

    Thanks!
