Elric's Back!

Spotted on the shelves, shiny and new, at 3pm, Borders Books, Alamo Quarry, San Antonio, TX. According to Amazon.com, Michael Moorcock's ELRIC: THE STEALER OF SOULS wasn't supposed to release until tomorrow. However this weekend, Moorcock's Miscellany said the book was selling at Forbidden Planet, London (thanks, Guy) and Barnes & Noble in Virginia (thanks, Blackwood Buzz). Today, Pyr's Lou Anders saw the book at Books-A-Million in Birmingham and my pal Brian Farrens spotted it up in far northside SA (again, Borders). So the wait is now officially over. Elric's back and he's everywhere, at least across North America.

I'm thrilled to be a small part of this, and this weekend Mike and I will be celebrating with a book signing/launch party for the new Elric book. Details as follows:

Where:
Austin Books
5002 N. Lamar
Austin, TX
email: info@austinbooks.com
(512) 454-4197

When:
Sat. Feb. 23
4-7pm

I've said it before, but Austin Books is one of the finest comic-book emporiums in the country. It's worth a trip just for its sheer comic-book goodness. For those who can't make it (I'm looking at you, Moorcock fans in the UK), Austin Books has set up a convenient "buy it" button where you can reserve a signed copy of ELRIC: THE STEALER OF SOULS that Mike and I can sign and/or personalise for you this weekend. Scroll down to just below the Elric cover. Hope to see everyone on Saturday! :)
