I’ve had a fabulous weekend at Chicago’s C2E2 festival as part of my Radicalized book-tour, and now I’m heading to San Francisco for an appearance on Monday night at Berkeley Arts & Letters at 7:30PM with Richard Kadrey. Then it’s on to The Revolutionary Reads series at Ft Vancouver (outside of Portland, OR), and then the Seattle Public Library and finally a weekend of events at Wondercon in Anaheim. Come on out!

Last week’s NYC book launch for Radicalized took the form of a fantastic conversation with the journalist Julia Angwin; the Strand folks were kind enough to video it and they’ve posted it to Youtube. Julia is incredibly smart and a wonderful interviewer, and we had some great Q&A as well.

Tomorrow it’s Chicago’s C2E2 festival and then to Berkeley for an event with the writer and photographer Richard Kadrey, and then the Revolutionary Reads program at Fort Vancouver’s Clark College (just outside of Portland, OR); and then the tour takes me to Seattle and Anaheim!

Thanks to the folks who came to last night’s LA launch for Radicalized, my latest book of science fiction for adults; I’m about to hop a train to San Diego for an event tonight at Mysterious Galaxy at 7:30 PM.

Well, this is awesome: Andrew Liptak picked my next book, Radicalized as one of The Verge’s picks for March! The tour starts Monday!
Radicalized is my next science fiction book, out on March 18 from Tor Books: it contains four novellas about the hope and misery of our moment, from refugees resisting life in an automated IoT hell to health care executives being targeted by suicide bombers who have been traumatized by watching their loved ones die after being denied care. Tor Books is sending me on tour with the book in the US and Canada and I hope you can make it to one of my stops!
