Sorry it’s been so quiet around here this last week. I’ve been flat out (honest!) and you’ll start seeing what I’ve been up to before long.


I’ve been made aware of a couple of awards that HATER has been nominated for. Firstly, RAGE, the French edition of the book, is up for the prestigious Masterton award, and you can read more about it here on the Milady blog.
Secondly, HATER has been nominated in the Best Zombie Book (Fiction) category of the Mail Order Zombie Dead Letter Awards (it’s not technically a zombie novel, I know, but hey…!). Please click here to vote and pick your favourite zombie books and films of the last 12 months.
In similar news, Mihai, owner of the very popular Dark Wolf’s Fantasy Reviews blog, listed HATER as number three in his top ten books of 2009. Mihai also listed Danny McCoyne as his favourite male character of last year! Cheers Mihai.
And finally, I was really pleased to hear that the audiobook of HATER recently won an ‘earphones award’ from AudioFile Magazine. For those of you who enjoyed the audiobook (you can download it from Audible and iTunes amongst others if you haven’t yet heard it), you’ll be pleased to hear that DOG BLOOD will also be released as an audiobook by Blackstone Audio on 8th June.

I’m afraid my GCSE french has long since left my brain, are you nomintaed alongside Scott Sigler? What an honour, both are crackin books,with some gruesome content, but obviously Hater was my fav!
Thanks both!
Dawn, your GCSE French has stood you in good stead… yes, that is Scott Sigler’s Infected that Hater is nominated alongside.
Scott is a top man. In fact, just to tease you all a little more, here’s what he had to say about a certain book that’s coming out in June this year:
“Moody nails what it means to be human by making humans something else. A brilliant, savage, species-wide look in the mirror . . . Moody effortlessly crystalises the frailty of civilisation: a savage look at a future deeply rooted in our evolutionary past”
