Tower Lord – New Review
Thanks, as ever, to Faye at The Social Potato for her review of Tower Lord. She also did a video review of Blood Song last year which you can view here.
Tower Lord audiobook – Sample
Thanks to Hachette Audio for posting a seven minute sample from the Tower Lord audiobook as read by the enviably voiced Mr Steven Brand: https://soundcloud.com/hachetteaudiouk/tower-lord-by-anthony-ryan-book-2-of-ravens-shadow
Enjoy.
PS. Tower Lord is now only 108 hours away if you live in the US and 124 in the UK, just in case anyone was counting.

Tower Lord – Fantasy Book Critic Review
Thanks to Mihir at Fantasy Book Critic for posting the first in-depth review of Tower Lord. It does feature some mild spoilers so you may want to wait if you’re hoping to come to the book completely cold.
Tower Lord – US Audiobook, Pre-order now active
Thanks to commenters Adam and Steph for tracking down the thankfully now active Audible.com pre-order page for the US version of Tower Lord: http://www.audible.com/pd/Sci-Fi-Fantasy/Tower-Lord-Audiobook/B00L4IRLG8/ref=a_search_c4_1_3_srTtl?qid=1403229402&sr=1-3. No cover art yet but I assume it’s on its way.
NB. The 73 hour running time must be a typo as Blood Song came in at about 22 hours and whilst Tower Lord is longer, it’s not that much longer.
and ‘Blood Song’ in French is…
La Voix du Sang. I know this because it’s published today by Bragelonne Editions, available from Amazon.fr and (I hope) all good bookshops.
Blood Song – UK Audiobook now available
To a hearty cry of “Finally!” the audiobook version of Blood Song is now available in the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and South Africa. Buy it from Audible.co.uk, iTunes or wherever audiobook downloads are sold.
Tower Lord sample now up
A small redesign today. In response to a growing number of requests I’ve amended the old ‘Tower Lord: The Frequently Asked Question’ page to include a sample from Tower Lord. Feel free to speculate in the comments about what it all means but remember I won’t be answering any questions on this one. Enjoy.
