Fiction Elite:Dangerous ". . .And here the Wheel" (NOVEL)

Thargoid · Oct 19, 2014

Hi

For those of you following the 'choose your own adventure' style fiction going on in my Garry Clan newsletter, this weekend is your last chance to vote. The next newsletter is good to go, I just need to write the next part of the story, which is dependent on your vote.

3 Options, 3 possible destinies. Help Robert Garry out of a predicament and get warm fuzzies inside as payment.

You can read the story at the following link (which has a link for voting too).

Hi

Thanks for the interest My publisher has about 100 copies of my signature on hand so you are able to buy signed copies from the Fantastic Books Publishing webstore: https://www.fantasticbookspublishing.com/store/

Thanks for getting back, but the store doesn't list any "Signed" versions like the other books, just normal audio, paper and hardback.

Hi

Ok I've taken this query back to my publisher, hopefully hear back soon!

Cheers

Just finished reading this and needed to post....

Absolutely awesome book. I read a lot of Sci-Fi and this has easily been one of the best reads I've had for a long time. Really hoping for some sequels

Thargoid · Nov 14, 2014

Hi. Thank you that is really awesome news. If you have the time. I'd really appreciate an amazon and/or goodreads review please. It helps others decide that it is awesome too

Nomadski · Nov 15, 2014

Still no signed version? Cmon John!

Thargoid · Nov 15, 2014

You're right Nomadski. I asked for an answer to your query the second time around and FBP didn't get back to me - lost in the ether perhaps. FBP have my signature on tap so they can actually provide them. I'll organise an easy way for you to get it.

Sorry

Thargoid · Nov 18, 2014

Ok Nomadski, I have it for you. I banged up Dan at FBP and he's set up a signed copy link on the webstore. It can be found here: https://www.fantasticbookspublishing.com/store/elite-2/elite-and-here-the-wheel-signed-paperback/

Sorry it took so long.

Cheers,

John

Hi.

Its time for some more novel news. The novel has been out for half a year now, so the next step is the Audiobook. I've blogged about the impending release and all the additional extras that the audiobook version has over the currently published version.

Click here: http://andherethewheel.co.nz/2014/12/12/audiobook-and-here-the-wheel-coming-soon/ for the low-down.

Thanks, John

A bigger, better "And Here The Wheel" for our listening enjoyment? Exciting news! I'm very much looking forward to the CDs when they arrive in the post.

Philip Coutts · Jan 30, 2015

So I am about 40% of the way through "And Here the Wheel" and I'm loving it. Particularly because I was born in Aberdeen and the various references make it just that wee bit more interesting. I'm hooked though and I can't wait to see how it all pans out in the end. Great addition to the ED universe.

Thargoid · Jan 30, 2015

Thanks Philip, that's really awesome to hear. The real Robert Garry is from Aberdeen too so it was important to me to give an accurate flavour. Hope you enjoy the rest of it. When you finish I'd really love a review on amazon and/or goodreads please.

Thanks, john

Sorry I've felt a bit vacant this year. I've been working hard on many projects, but now I'm looking toward the launch of the Audiobook of And Here The Wheel. Updates on this and my other projects over at my website: http://andherethewheel.co.nz/2015/02/02/shallow-seeds-and-audiobooks/

Hope to see you over there.

Thanks,

John

Finished last night. Absolutely brilliant from start to finish and had a great ending. I'm off to leave a review on Amazon now.

Thargoid · Feb 6, 2015

Thanks alot Philip, I really appreciate you taking the time to do that

Just as a by-the-by, I'm posted a sample from another project I'm working on called 'The Seed' - a post apocalyptic 2D novel type game. If you are interested you can check it out at the links below:

Awesome,

John, I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the audiobook, absolutely brilliant.

Many thanks to you and all those involved in this project. Provided me with a lot of entertainment.

The podcast you did during the writing process was great too. I really enjoyed the insight into your journey in creating this masterpiece and all the discussions and interviews. I extend my thanks to you and all your guests on the podcasts.

I very much hope you write more elite dangerous books (even better if they are brought alive as an audiobook).
