The May issue of the Shanville Monthly went live today, with all the latest Darren Shan news and updates. As you might expect, it's quite heavy on my new Archibald Lox books, explaining why I released the first three books of my new series out of the blue, exploring the reaction from readers to them, and so on.

There ARE several other articles in among the mix -- including how you can listen to the first Cirque Du Freak audio book for free, and info about another upcoming Darren Dash sale -- but a lot of ithe newsletter revolves around a young locksmith and his adventures in another universe...

Well, it's my first new Darren Shan middle grade/YA series in four years, so I don't think anyone's going to complain too much about THAT! :-) :-) :-)
