I never lose the thrill of opening a carton of books for the first time and holding the finished product in my hands, feeling the smoothness of the cover, marvelling at the design work and savouring the smell of fresh print.
And the excitement was only increased today because
Evolution Expects, as well as being the last book in the first Ulysses Quicksilver story arc is also the first
Pax Britannia book to appear in the larger B format (rather than the usual A format).
You can see what a difference it makes in the pictures below, with
Human Nature and
Evolution Expects shown side by side. It will certainly give the books a greater presence on the shelf, and make them easier to manhandle when it comes to enjoying them.
And on top of all that the designers have come up with a funky new series logo to go on the spine. And there's a little extra for you the reader too. As well as
Evolution Expects the novel, there's
Conqueror Worm the novella, which takes the world of
Pax Britannia in a rather unexpected direction.
So all that remains for me to say is pick yourself up a copy today and enjoy.
Until next time...
