the
Goblins are Coming!
the long anticipated dystopian novel by
Zsolt Kerekes
will be published in October 2024news November 13, 2023
In
2005 I emailed the first complete draft of a novella called the Goblins are
Coming! (which I had started writing 4 years before) to selected beta readers
in the UK, US and Australia.
They all said the same - make it longer -
we'd like to know what happens before, and what happens next.
I was
busy in those days earning my living as the editor of the leading publication in
the solid state drive market - where my readers were at the forefront of a new
revolution in computer architecture. And in my spare time I had made personal
commitments to write some
books for
children.
In the past 22 years I've picked up and set aside this
novel (as it has now become) on several occasions - at major milestones in my
writing life - expanding scenes in the original novella and adding never before
shared new chapters.
When I embarked on my project to publish 7 books
at the beginning of 2023 - the Goblins are Coming! was #6 on my list. I've
lived with this story for a long time. I look forward to sharing it soon.
###
