New Publication Date (and name) for Faeman

For reasons best known to themselves — at least they haven’t explained them to me — Bloomsbury have decided to move publication of my new Faerie Wars novel from autumn of this year to January of 2011. The launch of the book, originally titled The Faeman Girl and now definitely called Faeman Quest (because research shows, according to my agent, that boys won’t buy books with ‘girl’ in the title) now coincides with U.S. publication of the second Shadow Project novel, The Doomsday Box, to be published by HarperCollins in the same month and year.
