A 2021 Book

So brace yourself but I have a novel coming out in 2021.
I know. It was three million years between Lexicon and
Providence and now this! But that’s how I roll. You might not
remember, but I blurghed out two novels in quick succession last time,
too. Lexicon was the second blurgh. Now the second blurgh is:


The 22 Murders of Madison May


You know I don’t like to build up my own stuff, so I will just say it feels
like my best book. I might be wrong. I change my mind on that kind of thing
a lot. But I feel very happy about it.


The book is about—and stop here if you’re one of those people who, like me,
prefer to know NOT ONE DAMN THING about the book you’re about to read—a
serial killer who stalks the same woman across parallel lives.


That’s it. That’s all I’m saying. It will be published by Putnam in the
US & Canada in July 2021, with other countries to be confirmed, and by God
we’d better have a covid vaccine by then. Book tours are my only excuse to
leave the house.


In other exciting 2021 news, the Providence paperback hits on May 4.
That’s Star Wars day! So if you’ve been wanting to read it but not in a
heavy book you might drop on your face while in bed and you don’t like ebooks
and audio’s not your thing either, then, wow, how picky are you.

Safari Syrup is my fave followed closely by Jennifer Government. And the term spoiler alert rocks. Because I don't like the story experience ruined by too much info. One of my pet peeves with reviews is reviewers telling the dang story in more depth then the cover blurb.

I'm a new eBook convert. I was of the belief that nothing could compare to holding the actual book. I was so wrong. Now I wish there was a way to magic my entire library into my tablet and out of boxed storage that doesn't involve having to repurchase my entire extremely vast collection of literary works.

Thanks for being constructive during lockdown Max, your fans will be happier with some new Max Barry awesomeness.
