The Works of Peadar ó Guilín
We're going to have a second attempt at launching The Invasion tomorrow night (5th April 2018) after the snow scuppered the previous one. All are welcome to come along and have some cake.
Venue: Downstairs in Department 51 at Easons on O'Connell Street in Dublin.
Time: 6:30pm
I'll be in the main Blackwell's Bookshop in Oxford at 5pm on Monday 26 March. If you want me to sign a book for you -- even one you've purchased before -- I'll be more than happy. Say hello! Be of good cheer!
I'll also pop into their new Westgate Shop to jot my name on a few copies of The Invasion and to meet the staff or the bewildered customers.
All are welcome. All of the time.
For anybody in the US looking for a copy of The Invasion, there's a giveaway going on right now at this address:

Dear readers and friends -- you can be both, it's OK! It's better, even.
Today we launch The Invasion, the second and concluding volume in my series about the Grey Land and the Sídhe and multiple, horrible character mutilations. I hope you will consider getting a copy. If you do, it's best to read it in daylight, surrounded by loved ones.
The book is available right now in the UK and Ireland and possibly Australia and NZ too. My North American friends will be seeing it on 27 March.
Thank you all for your support. I'm sorry that the launch event in Dublin was eaten by the weather. The last time I tried to launch the second book in a series, the city was shut down due to the visit of a foreign dignitary and many people couldn't get in. But I've topped it this time with a blanket of snow!
Stay warm!
Very sorry to announce cancellation of the launch of The Invasion tomorrow night. The weather did us in. Take care all of you and please spread the word so nobody shivers alone in the snow with no cake.
If you were thinking of buying my new book, thank you! All support is appreciated more than you can know. Stay warm, everybody!
I am deeply honoured and grateful to appear on the longlist for the Carnegie Medal. Thank you to all librarians for everything you do. And congratulations to my fellow nominees. There are amazing books on this list.
The Invasion will be launching in Eason, O'Connell Street, Dublin at 6:30pm on 1 March. All are very welcome. I hope to do an event in London too some time in March. As for my friends and family in North America, you'll be seeing the book in stores on 27 March.
Thank you!
Blogger Kirsty Stanley will interview the wonderful Haley Barker and myself at the Waterstones Castlepoint store in Bournemouth on Saturday 30 September at 1pm.
Books will be signed! Friends will be made and all will be happy in the land forever more.
Come and join us!
There is a very tiny Facebook Group dedicated to The Call and I have decided to donate some prizes starting on 1 September. This happens to the the anniversary of the book’s launch in Dublin.
The first giveaway? I’m not saying what it is yet, but I can promise it will be both precious *and* rare. Everyone who is a member of the facebook group will be automatically entered no matter where they live in the world.
There will be another prize during the month of September and more at some indeterminate date after that. Heaven knows where it will all end!
Apologies to anybody who is not on FB. We work with what we have!
