/ / Little Brother, News


My novel Little Brother has just come out in the UK, a month ahead of schedule (Waterstone’s, the book-store chain, wanted it as a featured title, but their slot was in October, not November). This is fabulous news, of course, but it does mean that I’m not around to do signings and events right away (I got married on Sunday night and am now on my honeymoon — this was written in advance and automatically posted!). Still, I wanted to make sure that there were signed copies available right away for collector/fans who didn’t want to have to choose between getting a copy now and waiting for a month to get a signed one.

So last week, before leaving for the wedding, I popped into the HarperCollins offices in London and signed a stack of 500 copies of Little Brother that are now on sale through Play.com. It’s only while supplies last, natch, so act now!

PMOG — the Passively Multiplayer Online Game — has two missions for Little Brother. PMOG is a game you play by scavenger-hunting the web, while your browser keeps track of where you go and what you do. It lets you lay traps for other players and score points by luring them in. One of the missions (How I Read Little Brother) was created by my friend Justin Hall, who co-founded PMOG, and the other (Why read Little Brother?) was created by a fan, Treekyte. Both seem like a lot of fun!
