Well, it must be official!
As has just been posted on Twitter by my publisher:
“I’m overjoyed to share that debut author @AndyRedsmith has accepted a 2 book offer from @canelo_co. His hilarious, artfully constructed #cosycrime #urbanfantasy crossover series is perfect for fans of Douglas Adams & Ben Aaronovitch. Breaking the Lore (bk 1) is out April 2019!”
And:
“A witty, unique new voice, @AndyRedsmith & his curmudgeonly Inspector Nick Paris are sure to captivate. A man of logic and whisky, Nick doesn’t believe in magic...until faced with a 15cm tall murder victim. And the dead fairy is only the beginning!”
Can’t argue with that, can I?
