Hello, homo sapiens,

For those of you across the pond, I come bearing good news: The Galaxy, and the Ground Within has launched in the UK! I hope you enjoy this last trip to the Wayfarers universe as much as I've enjoyed hanging out in it. You can find various purchasing options here on my publisher's website, or pick up a copy from whichever bookseller you like best.

(If you're stateside, you've got two more months to wait, but pre-orders are open!)

To celebrate the launch, I've got two online events on the docket, plus more to come.

First up, Waterstones is virtually hosting a talk between me and fellow sci-fi author Laura Lam next Wednesday, February 24th at 19:30 GMT. Tickets are £5 general admission, and £19 including the book (UK postage only). Tickets and more information can be found here.

Next month, I'll be in conversation with author Ben Aaronovitch, courtesy of Forbidden Planet. We'll be chatting about the genre on Monday, March 22 at 19:30 GMT. Admission is included with a purchase of the limited signed edition of The Galaxy, and the Ground Within. Details here!

Stay safe, and keep looking up.

Ad astra,

Becky
