Greeting Jackolytes,

Sync City’s final manuscript and cover have landed with the printers, and events are proceeding nicely. The official publication date for Sync City is February 28th, and, for those of you that pre-ordered the paperback version, they should ship on or around that date (or maybe even earlier – stranger things have happened). With this in mind, it’d be a mighty fine idea to make sure you have your correct earth-based address with Inkshares (especially if you have moved), so this compelling novel of man and machine can cruise unimpeded through the labyrinth of the international postal system.

If you are now thinking, yes, a paperback of time-fractured death and destruction is exactly what I need to see off the dregs of winter, then you can pre-order at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and Book Depository, as well as many other fine online bookstores. It would also make a lovely, belated Valentine’s Day gift …

The ebook, which obviously has no postal issues to deal with, is still available for the limbo low price of $5.99 at Inkshares.

Stay tuned!

Cheers,

 Peter

Greetings Jackolytes,

The final cover is upon us! The good people at Ebook Launch have done an awesome job of capturing the essence of Jack and his ride. Below is what those fine people buying paperbacks will receive. And if you still want to join this illustrious club and bag one of these paperback beauties, it’s available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and Book Depository. Imagine how Sync City would look on your bookshelf!  

The ebook, with the striking front cover, is still available for the low, low price of $5.99 at Inkshares. 

Cheers,

Peter

Greetings Jackolytes,

There is movement in the garage, and Jack is getting ready to ride. The final touches are being put on the back cover and spine, and the designer has done a fantastic job. I’ll share it with you when it’s finalized. But what this does mean is that we getting much closer to the publishing date!

I also got this tremendous review from one of my beta readers. He was kind enough to pop it up on Goodreads:

From remarkably edgy, irreverent, and sometimes quirky well developed characters, to movement (sometimes planned, sometimes not) between shifting time lines and realities replete with their own civilizations and cultures, to a shape shifting, sentient frankenbike with an attitude and a best hits of weaponry past, present, and future designed to wreak maximum havoc, Sync City has it all. Ryan had me from the get go, and I peeled through the entirety of it as fast as I could get my hands on new chapters. Another big upside? Unlike some works that have one strong story line, maybe two, and a couple of weaker ones that you’d rather blow through quickly to get back to the good parts, all the lines and characters Ryan builds work in concert and are equally strong and well developed. Grab it, devour it, and get set for the next installation. 

If this inspires you to jump on board and have the ride of your life, you can pre-order the paperback at Amazon (ignore the Jan 17th publishing date – I’m trying to get that changed), Barnes and Noble and Book Depository. The ebook is available for the low, low price of $5.99 at Inkshares. Please help send all these books to a good home and don’t forget to share!

Cheers,

Peter

Greetings Jackolytes,

Well now, where are we at exactly? In the twisting, turning world of publishing, Jack finally has a fixed date for release on the unsuspecting public. And that date is February 28th, 2017. If you have pre-ordered the paperback version of Sync City, then your copy(ies) should appear around that time. If you are an international person of mystery (i.e. a non North American), they may take a touch longer to get to you.

For those of you who went the ebook route, things should be a little more straightforward, and you’ll just need to follow the instructions in the email sent to you at that time.

So what’s new in Jack’s world? Well, my website is new. Or at least tremendously updated. If you click here, you can see my new home page. And if you follow this link, you can read the first two of chapters of Sync City to whet your appetite. Many thanks to my lovely wife, Nicola, for doing all the heavy lifting on this one.

One of the sexy things you’ll notice on the home page is all the online booksellers from which you can now pre-order Sync City. Of course, if you want to get in on the ground floor, then you can very much pre-order it here (and please share with those who have yet to meet Jack). And if you are familiar with the opening scene of Sync City (read here and don’t be shy!), then make sure you come in on the ground floor and not the basement. The basement is a bad place to be!

Cheers,

Peter
