Recent events (which I've more than likely gone on about far too much) have meant that I've had to scale back on the signings and things that I would normally love to attend. Can't believe I missed Robert Rankin and Peter Hamilton...
There's always an exception to the rule though and it came around a lot sooner than I thought it would. Check this out (from the Forbidden Planet website)...
MICHAEL MOORCOCK will be signing his new Doctor Who novel The Coming of the Terraphiles at the Forbidden Planet Megastore, 179 Shaftesbury Avenue, London, WC2H 8JR, on Thursday 21st October from 6pm until the signing queue ends.
Miggea - a star on the edge of reality. A point where space-time has worn thin, and is in danger of collapsing... and the venue for the grand finals of the Arrow of Law competition. The Doctor and Amy have joined the Terraphiles - a group re-enacting Earth’s ancient sporting events and they are determined to win the Arrow. But reality is collapsing, ships are disappearing, Captain Cornelius and his pirates are looking for easy pickings. The Doctor and Amy have to find out who is prepared to kill to get their hands on the Arrow. And uncover a traitor. And win the contest. And – of course – save the universe from total destruction. This is a thrilling, all-new adventure featuring the Doctor and Amy, as played by Matt Smith and Karen Gillan.
Like the title says, I will make sure that I'm around for this particular signing. The only problem is though... everyone else is going to be there as well. I mean, it's Michael Moorcock! :o)
Get there early for this one, just make sure that you don't arrive as early as I do ;o) The blurb says the signing will go on until the signing queue ends; the website says that the signing will be from 6-7pm. Make of that what you will...
And after they do all that, there'll still be time for breakfast....
