-- Lots
of my publishers have
their own web sites,

about the books which I
don't know -- such as
when they're going to be
released, how much they
will cost, etc!!

you're buying before you

loads of translated
copies of my books. They
even have the Japanese
Darren Shan fan book

big spider on the cover,

own even if you can't
read Japanese!!!!

balladeer, like nobody
else out there! Mixes
strong political songs
with weirdly sweet
ballads and manic rock
rants!! Check out some
of the songs on his site
("Bubble Electrician",
"City of Styrofoam Cups"
and "Escape from the
Planets of the Apes" are
especially brilliant),
then buy his CD if you
live in one of the areas
which stock them!!
(Sadly, they're not
currently available
online.) Go>
-- this is
a Darren Shan fan site,
but better than most and
worth checking out.
Contains some nice
features, such as a
chronological list of
all my released work,

of my books before I
do!!! A worthy companion
piece to my own site!
