The Mortal Coil Tour


I have returned!

And just time, it appears. The comments section from the last entry is close to spilling over into our first THOUSAND count... 852 when last I checked. You people are INSANE.

I, on the other hand, am completely normal, and as such I have been going about normal things for the past week. Normal things such as scheduling TV appearances, radio appearances, newspaper interviews, heading over to London to sign 1250 copies of Mortal Coil in two hours, organizing tours and generally making sure everything is running smoothly on the run-up to publication day.

Of course, SOME of you don’t have to WAIT for publication day, do you? There are some of you, apparently, who already HAVE Mortal Coil. Try as we might to ensure that every bookshop releases it on the same day, some of the little scallywags do like to sneak a few copies out ahead of time. And so it is probably wise, at this point, to make a rule about NO SPOILERS in the comments section until, oooh, at least the 10th of September. After the 10th, let’s all agree to label the posts CLEARLY with SPOILER WARNINGS- but even so, try and refrain from being TOO blatant...

Because I know, oh how I know, that there are those of you, out there, who will see a spoiler for the book and you will READ it, despite knowing that you’re going to pick up a copy of your own the very next day...! You just can’t resist it, can you? But you must TRY! Promise me you’ll at least TRY, because I assure you, finding out what happens is much more fun when you read from the BOOK, and not from a spoiler...

Now then, this tour business. Whenever I tour, we always pick a certain section of the UK to focus on. Last time I was down the south, this time I’m... er... somewhere else. Details below!

Harly Ryker said...

ARE YOU NOW!!???!?!?!?!? You'll known me. I'll say "Pretty pony unicorn princess" quite loudly, and if you hear, come over!
My mum just wants to get out of work, haha. She works in a kids home, and they're a bunch of trouble. So, we were discussing how we were going to work it out, and she said. "I'll take you out at 2, sure." And it slipped my mind to tell her that I wouldn't need to be taken out at that time. Whoopsies.
:)

Kate Stuart-Smith said...

Kate Stuart-Smith said...

Kate Stuart-Smith said...

Dragona you are evil

Star Lord said...

I may not come back on this laptop for a very long time; my dad is getting really ****** off with me, and said either I don't get a month on it or he bins it.
I have an evil dad, and I feel like depression has taken over me, I feel like an emo, but I'll never slit my wrists.

My dad shouted at me for not concentrating, I think I might be slightly dislexic, and I am easily destracted. I have really sharp fingernails, and last night I had an itchy eye: you know what happened from there.

Harly Ryker said...

I have to go to school on the day mortal coil's coming! But I have to pass through the town on my way home,So I'll pay the taxi driver to drive like a mad man into the town, do a tuck and roll int waterstones, glare at eeeeevil waterstones man if he's there, grab the book, pay, go home,ignore homework(wrapping books and getting something signed, oh what a hard first day!) And READ!!!!!

Star Lord said...

I scratched my eyeball with huge sharp fingernails: OW.

I might not post a blog on Tendrils for a very long while.

Kate Stuart-Smith said...

ha , i hope your ok. I have only ever met my dad twice , and my mam doesn't punish my brother and i so ive never had that problem anyway how was school

Star Lord said...

Can I have a minion sheep?
Or a minion bunny?
My best friend has 3 cats now, Gimli, Isabella, and Ziggy.
His mum and dad are divorced, and his mum's boyfriend matt, has a daughter who has moved in with my friend.
Apparently my friend's mum can't afford much: She bought my friends "To-be-step-sister", a kitten because she felt sorry for her.

How sad is that.

Kate Stuart-Smith said...

very - gives you mini minion ninja bunny-

Star Lord said...

School was a ****load. The usual. I get teased about Hitler because I'm half German: My best friend's quarter German, how come I'm the only one getting bullied?

Yeah, I'm OK.
It happenes a lot.
I'm going to scare a lot of people at Halloween: I'll dress up a Freddy Krueger.

Star Lord said...

I'll give you all Minion Samuri Kittens!

Thanks, Bunny.

Star Lord said...

Dragona; why are you killing all those poor cute bunnys?
Revive them and give them to Bunny.
Or I'll set one of my Samuri Kittens on you!

Harly Ryker said...

aww, Sarthacus!He does sound evil. He shouldn't shout at you, that's not the way to get you to concentrate, that'll make you MORE ditracted and annoyed, so you won't be able to concetrate!I guess that's his way oh parenting, but, personally, I don't think that that helps your child. I think that that'll get him anywhere. Don't give up, Sarthacus!
(and no, I'm not a parent, but at one stage was wanting to become a consouller.Now, possibly a lawyer. But I've got a strong opinion about parenting.

Kate Stuart-Smith said...

YAY FOR SAMURAI KITTENS , and bullies are ****heads -gives you big stick- use this lol

Star Lord said...

Hehe, thanks Bunny.
-Takes stick and sharpenes it-
I like big sticks now!

Star Lord said...

-Stick turns into aSamuri sword-
Mwuhuhahaha!
Mwuhahaheeehheheheee!
Mehahahahahe--
-Coughs-
UGHA EGHEE UHE OOHUGH AAAGHEE!

Night all, got to go.

Kate Stuart-Smith said...

bye-bye

Harly Ryker said...

And I don't know my real dad, I'm adopted. I'm sure glad I don't, apparently he's not nice. But I've never been punished, my rents don't really do that. I don't really do any thing worse than being sarcastic, so my mum's glad she passed on that gene haha. My nana's like on my side though, so if anything ever goes wrong, she sorts it, cuz she lives with us. LOVE YOU NANA!!!! She's away with my aunt to visit her cousins in Enneskillen. so my uncle's looking after me, coming to get me around 9, then we have to go to the dump. =( not a happy Harly.

Harly Ryker said...

Darkane Claw said...

Hey people off the universe,
I saw Scott Pilgrim vs. The World again today. BEST MOVIE EVER WATCH IT NOW! Do you know how hard it is to fill a punch bag with water? Very I tell you, VERY.
Sarthacus, the distraction thing sounds like ADHD. I'm quarter German and I have cousins who live in Scotland. Scotland is awesome.

Unknown said...

bye, i am leaving this blog cause some stupid fucking people posted spiolers. if anyone cares enough i might come back. bye.

Liz said...

hey yall! hows it going?

Unknown said...

Well i really am hoping to see you when you get to Bluewater. And i wont even be getting a copy signed for myself, but for my best friend Josh. Who went out and brought every single book for me, the last one the day it was released. So this time i want to do something special for him. Only problem is work. So may i ask how long you are there for?

Mary Hiashi said...

My oh my. Such language from you people. Dear me, whatever shall we do? *Laughs a little crazily* Don't mind me. And on the off side, why are we all talking about minion animals and such other fantasy creatures. Such insanity! But I am not one to talk, am I? My minds as twisted as a string of DNA. (What?)Yep. But does anyone have any myths, legends they have to share? Any at all? *Starts crying* I need ideas! And I can't wait for Dias de les Muertes (or whatever it is exactly.)
Blessed be,
Miss Mary Hiashi

Unknown said...

Man it SUCKS to live in the USA when the author of your favorite book lives in Ireland.
The newest book comes out practically a month later then for those in Europe.
AND YOU DON'T GET TO GO TO DEREK'S BOOK TOUR AND MEET THE MAN HIMSELF, THEREFORE HAVING FULFILLED A LIFE GOAL.
*HINT, HINT*
;DDD

Mary Hiashi said...

I do love Halloween. You know what else I love? Books, lots and lots, and lots of books. One of my goals in life is to get a nice, big library. And a grand piano. (I'll need a loooooooooooootttttttttttttttttttttttt of money. Those babies cost a fortune.) My other goal is get lots of money for as little work as possible. It'll have to be something a lond the lines of english. I've already made 100 dollars from the school board a little while ago for writing. That award got me a few others. ;) The downside was that I was valedictorian for my grad class. That wasn't fun. (My fellow graduates thought process: she's the best at writing, pick her. My thought process: Heaven help me.) And I know that 100 dollars isn't that much, but for the very minimal amount of time I spent on it I'm good. Plus it's a start, ya.
I hate speeches. And when you win awards for higher end stuff you have to dress up a bit. Or at least that's what my mother says. My parents are like five year olds I swear.
Blessed be,
JammersFlood

Unknown said...

Ah, A personal library would be beyond awesome :D
I could just escape to it through my secret doorway activated by removing a certain candlestick. (To those of you who've seen Young Frankstein: "PUT. ZE CANDLE. BACK." ;D)

Mary Hiashi said...

Ooooh. I sympathize with Ebony.Although I live in Cananada. (Purposefully miss-spelt by the way.) Why must it take so long for the books? *Sighs with tears brimming in her eyes.* And damnation I put JammersFlood instead of my 'name'. Gomenesai.
Blessed be,
Miss Mary Hiashi

Alexandre Requiem (Lynda) said...

Oh.
Are we doing character now?
Well, then...
I realize my character's name is MY taken name, but who really cares?

Name: Alexandre Requiem (Ali to his friends...friend...alright, he has none)
Age: Looks around 23, but is 628
Powers: Necromancy (uses metal silver glove to channel shadows), also can control time. Not go back hundreds of years, but if he was in a fight and he was about to be stabbed, he could go back one second and step aside so the blade wouldn't touch him.
Fighting: Doesn't like direct combat, prefers shooting shadows at people (shadows kind of...eat them, transfering their souls to him)
Weakness: Too arrogant and vain, thinks he's the best at everything.
Strength: Not THAT strong, but not weak either. Very fast.
Appearance: Orange-amber eyes with vertical pupils, spiked dark-blue hair, quite pale, likes wearing bowler hats, long black coat, black shirt with ruffles.
RUFFLES!!

That is Alexandre.

-Lynda.

Alexandre Requiem (Lynda) said...

Oh, and he's French.

SkulduggeryPleasantRulz said...

Wow... How do all of U people who always comment on here do it? Do U go 2 skool? Coz I can neva come on this blog that often UNFORTUNATELY becoz of stoooopid skoolwork and assignments! Grr! I wanna C wat evry1 says evry hour of the day... And work on drawing Skulduggery characters becoz I like doing it... Has evry1 heard the audiobooks of Skulduggery Pleasant? A.W.E.S.O.M.E! I got the 1st 1 ages ago but I wanna save up 4 dem other 2 (Playing with Fire and The Faceless Ones) off iTunes! GRR!! GET THEM OFF iTUNES PEEPLZ!! SOOOO WORTH IT!

Also, MORTAL COIL IS BY FAR, THE BEST SKULDUGGERY BOOK YET! SOOOO FUNNY!
Yes Derek, even though Laura may not think UR so funny, we minions of URs think U R.... hmm... yep, probably the most hilarioustness person on this big round sphere of ours. Probably in the martian worlds too...
Hey? Would you put ALIENS in UR stories? That'd B really weird. LOLz. But uf U did, U would have to make them hilarious. LOLz.

And shewhofallsupstairs... If U didn't give away the place where U live, it should B okay. They can't stalk U unless they know where U live. People like that take UR last name and where you supposedly live, look it up in sumwhere like Yellow Pages or something to get addresses and if there is only one there, that is probably URs. Then they will probably look it up on Google Earth or sumthing. Also people, don't 4get 2 secure UR FaceBook and MySpace etc. pages so that public people can't view UR personal information. And don't put UR hometown or skool.

Umm... Yeah, sorry Derek to be wasting UR blog, I just thought I'd warn people.
Learnt about that stuff when these cyber police people came to our skool.

So... once again Mr Landy...

Wow... How do all of U people who always comment on here do it? Do U go 2 skool? Coz I can neva come on this blog that often UNFORTUNATELY becoz of stoooopid skoolwork and assignments! Grr! I wanna C wat evry1 says evry hour of the day... And work on drawing Skulduggery characters becoz I like doing it... Has evry1 heard the audiobooks of Skulduggery Pleasant? A.W.E.S.O.M.E! I got the 1st 1 ages ago but I wanna save up 4 dem other 2 (Playing with Fire and The Faceless Ones) off iTunes! GRR!! GET THEM OFF iTUNES PEEPLZ!! SOOOO WORTH IT!

Also, MORTAL COIL IS BY FAR, THE BEST SKULDUGGERY BOOK YET! SOOOO FUNNY!
Yes Derek, even though Laura may not think UR so funny, we minions of URs think U R.... hmm... yep, probably the most hilarioustness person on this big round sphere of ours. Probably in the martian worlds too...
Hey? Would you put ALIENS in UR stories? That'd B really weird. LOLz. But uf U did, U would have to make them hilarious. LOLz.

And shewhofallsupstairs... If U didn't give away the place where U live, it should B okay. They can't stalk U unless they know where U live. People like that take UR last name and where you supposedly live, look it up in sumwhere like Yellow Pages or something to get addresses and if there is only one there, that is probably URs. Then they will probably look it up on Google Earth or sumthing. Also people, don't 4get 2 secure UR FaceBook and MySpace etc. pages so that public people can't view UR personal information. And don't put UR hometown or skool.

Umm... Yeah, sorry Derek to be wasting UR blog, I just thought I'd warn people.
Learnt about that stuff when these cyber police people came to our skool.

So... once again Mr Landy...

I am going to go and follow your blog shewhofallsupstairs ;o can I petz your minion sheep? :} or do they prefer hugs toooo?


xDBx

Thankyou,formythoughtsareshared said...

NOOOO!!
Darn it. bitch. Fly to INdia, will you?
During the NOvember and December holidays, I will persuade my parents to fly me to Ireland/UK/USA/London/Germany to get my book signing(if they were to allow me - ya like REAL)
Can you fly to Singapore to sign? Um... for me and the other Singaporeans who know SP(very little, let me tell you first). I will paint you golden and offer sacrifices too.
Because, in Borders, in the late 2009, I tried to find Skulduggery Pleasant Book 2 n 3, but there was only book 2. In early 2010, Book 3 came out(ridiculous). I only managed to find The ONLY copy of Dark Days in MPH(I'm a lucky guy...)
Why do some people have the copy of Mortal Coil? Too unfair. DAmn
In the 1st book, Skulduggery kept saying DaMn. Why doesn't he say it now?
tanks for reading.

I'll see you at Foyleside in Londonderry, Derek, and I'll bring along a few mates. Hopefully. ;D

I don't have it ready now, but I reallyreallyreally want to do a Spring Heeled Jack cosplay to one of your signings, so next year~? If you see a stupid looking teenager looking ridiculous in a top hat and suit next year, that'll be me. 8D

Ludi Sen said...

In the name of Derek Landy, BAD MINIONS!!! I can understand that you are eager to express your feelings about the latest book The Mortal Coil, but you obviously have absolutely no consideration, for the people that haven't read it yet. I have only just started reading the series and am on Dark Days, but I'm already hooked on it. I'm mainly posting this comment so you know how grateful I am that you decided to write these books in the first place. But then my BFF Lenka (in my opinion the awesomest person in the world), told me that when I went on here to comment to scroll all the way down, ignoring the comments because all you evil people decided to say what happens out load (figuratively speaking of coarse). Personally, I am annoyed about this. But oh well I guess it's my fault for not reading quick enough, I guess I'm just lucky that I practically blindfolded myself so I wouldn't be tempted.
I'd just like to give a special mention to my BFF Lenka, because she got me interested in the books in the first place, and because she has managed to write the most inhumanley long letter I have ever seen! You might want to check out her website: http://lenkasweet.blogspot.com

from Ludi Sen (Lenka's BFF)

P.S. ignore my ranting, don't take it personally, I go on a bit, can't wait to read The Mortal Coil

xx

By the way, I hope your very grateful for this comment, you will not believe how long I've been yelling at the laptop and bugging Lenka to help me out. All I can say things aren't as easy as they seem - ... not for me anyway

XX

ok now this is on the right page

Anonymous said...

and no, Ludi, it's still not on the right page :L
but thank you for the mention and you soooo know you're more awesome! even if you really can't use blogger :P xxx

Ebony Orvil said...

GULP!
AAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
AGH! AGH! AGH! AGH! AGH! AGH!
I finished Mortal Coil last night.

DEFINITELY THE BEST BOOK EVER!!!!!!!!!
Also I have started reading other people's comments again (at least some of them :)



****S P O I L E R S**** DO NOT READ ON UNLESS YOU HAVE FINISHED IT!!!


Alexandre Requiem I agree with you on Caelan. I mean I DO like him but I just don't want another Twilight.

gulp! Last night I put the book down and spent a long time crying. I won't say what happened just in case some idiot (sorry) reads this and gets everything spoiled for them.

This adventure was more intense, sad, frighting and exiting than any other adventure from your books Landy!




****S P O I L E R O V E R****


PLEASE COME TO WATERFORD OR SOMEWHERE CLOSE BY!!! Mary-Ellen wants you to come to Wexford so GO!! Then I can just drive over and see you!! PLEASE I AM DYING HERE!!


Also sorry about the spoiler I have nobody to talk to SP 5 about so I just couldn't hold it back! (None of my SP friends have got the book yet).


You know the way I finished SP last night? Well it is just so good that I am reading it again! I know this is gonna give me REALLY bad "PostSkulduggeryPleasant syndrom" but I guess I will have to live with it.


"PostSkulduggeryPleasant syndrom" is what I get after I have finished Skulduggery Pleasant. I try to move onto another book but all I can think of is Skulduggery Pleasant. I just CAN'T adjust back to normal books!! I don't know why but usually Louise Sachar books do the trick. Unfortunately I have read all the Louise Sachar books (that I know of) but one. Fortunately I bought that book the day I got Skulduggery Pleasant Mortal Coil! If anyone is wondering what this Louise Sachar book is it is called "The Cardturner". I think it was released recently because it cost 17 euro. Honestly! I don't know why I am not broke because over the Summer I bought eleven books!! I am a bookaholic! It's probably my dad's fault because he takes me to all these bookshops (he is kinda a bookaholic too).



GOD! I just got a HUGE fright!!!! My dad who is at the moment watching the all Ireland Final just ROARED: YYYEEEESSSSS!!!!!! Looks like the match is going well. Anybody whose dad yells at the TV when there is a match on say I. (I wonder how many people are gonna do that).

HI,
I came to see you in Milton Keynes last weekend, i did do a comment last weekend as promised, but computer crashed and don't think it went through.

my site is
http://beckysbarmybookblog.blogspot.com/2010/09/author-signing-derek-landy.html

there is a review of my day out to meet you, and a photo of the picture i did for you also, said i would show it to you.

leave me a comment if you like. thanks :D

Franco said...

Hey Derek, I'll be disappointed if i don't get a response, all the work i've put in to scrolling down to actually get to the comment box will be wasted haha. Is there going to be a film ?? I really hope there is :) if so when will it be out?

barmybex said...

SPOILER ALERT:
Just got done with Mortal Coil... Great book, despite the ending. I thought I was going to throw up. This is just about the only time I've gotten emotional over a book.

All I have to say is that you better get the girl back. To normal. Tanith, I mean. I can't tell what your twisted, ingenious mind has in store, Derek, but I think that you might go either way where the plot is concerned - and if Tanith dies, or stays this same way through the series, I might get really depressed. Please bring her back. I'm begging you.

All in all, great book. Changed a lot since the first SP; I personally prefer the shorter-term, detective type stuff. Not so much the end of the world type stuff.

Just sayn'.

Ah ha ha ha!

Birmingham. Waterstones. I saw the Golden God.
I even glimpsed him coming into the other Waterstones in Birmingham by mistake at the same time we did.
