Righto, I can finally reveal the details for the A/NZ Down Under Tour. Most of the days will be taken up visiting schools, so I'm only listing the public events which will occur in the evenings and at the weekends.
For the public signings, all you have to do is turn up and I'll sign as much as possible in the time I have- but for the public events, it might be a good idea to contact the bookshop/library/whatever as soon as possible, in order to book a place.
The Ireland and UK details will be posted when I have them.
Oh, and for those of you who entered the little short story competition on the Skulduggery website, I've just read through the finalists (30 of them) and the winners will be announced before the weekend. Some truly great work in there...

Why thank you for that analogy, Nixion. *sends a wave of darkness at Miss Cain*

*makes the wave turn to ink and it turns on Elaise*

*starts running*
If there was an Adele quote in that one I didn't find it... And my balloon popped
No, Nix. If you were ME, you would feel no obligation to run when someone told you "if" stories.
Nix!! where do we run to??
*pulls dagger away from magnet*

For those of you who don't know, Elaisse is pretty much like Darquesse, except, you know, HERE!

WILL YOU SHUT UP ABOUT BLOODY LYNXIA?!!! I AM HERE NOW!!! DEAL WITH IT!!!!!!!!
