Get Shadowmagic in hardback — signed!
Just got this word from Shadowmagic author John Lenahan:
After lots of trials and tribulations, Shadowmagic is finally coming out in a hardback signed/numbered limited first edition of 1000 copies - next Monday - August 4. If you live in the US, I can only recommend you try Amazon.co.uk. Here in the UK it will be available at Borders book shops.
According to my publisher, I am almost sold out with UK bookshop pre-orders (you can read his blog post here) so if you have trouble getting a copy let me know and I’ll see what I can do. (This might only be to tell you to wait for the paperback in January - it will be a lot cheaper.)
Thank you all for taking the time to email me with your comments on Shadowmagic. I know this will sound spectacularly melodramatic but I can honestly say it has changed my life. Rest assured I’m working on Shadowmagic 2 (I’m at 80,000 words) and you will be the first I tell when I’m done.

At the amazon.co.uk site I was only able to ask to be notified when this title becomes available in hardcover. The paperback is available for pre-order.

John, I am delighted to hear of your success. Shadowmagic was a fantastic book, and it clearly requires a sequel. Congratulations, and keep writing!

Awesome! I loved Shadowmagic and can’t wait for the next in the series! I only wish I could pick it up here in the US.
