ain't no cure for the summertime news

Tomorrow is a momentous day for each and every one of us. Well, for me, anyways. For tomorrow is the day my book Invisible Armies - easily the best thing I've published yet, I think - is at long last officially released in the USA. It won't actually hit stores for another two weeks yet, but all the same, shop early (at amazon.com or bn.com ), shop often, post reviews on web sites and telephone poles, steal your neighbours' credit cards and shop again. Meanwhile, I'm giving away my next book for free. Yes, free. You see, last year I wrote a novel about a squirrel. Yes, a squirrel. It's called Beasts of New York , and I'm going to serialize the entire thing online, at beastsofnewyork.com , at a rate of one chapter a day, starting in mid-July. It's an unusual little book - I call it "a children's book for adults" - but I'm very, very fond of it, and I'm putting it online in the hope it might find a wide audience, so do tune in if you can
