Hi! Episode 2 of this super-professional, big budget video series about the space race is available now on my Youtube channel

One of the things I like most about writing books is learning new things and I learned a ton writing A HISTORY OF WHAT COMES NEXT. I knew almost nothing about the war when I began, very little of the space race and rocketry. There is a “Further Reading” section at the end of the novel where I discuss some of the events and people in the story. That said, there’s a lot that didn’t make it in, so I made a series of super professional videos about the space race. There are six videos. They’re part science, part history, and probably part wrong (I’m not a historian or a rocket scientist), but I tried to make it fun.

The first episode is here and on my Youtube channel

There's a free extended preview of A HISTORY OF WHAT COMES NEXT available right now in ebook format.
You can read the whole story on February 2.

Hi all! Signed, numbered limited editions of the Themis Files are available from Subterranean Press. The covers by Pascal Blanché are absolutely gorgeous. Check it out here.

To celebrate the paperback release of Only Human, and to thank you all for being the best, I wrote a new Lost File set a couple years after the last book. SPOILER ALERT! DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT read that File before you’ve read the whole series, or your head will explode, your cat will lose its hair, milk will go bad before its expiry date. Enjoy! thethemisfiles.com
