ONE WEEK TO THE IRON ROAD PAPERBACK ⚔️💥 Have you ordered your copy? Answer me! harpercollins.co.uk/products/the...

Dave "David" Wragg @davewragg.com · 27/05/2026

And finally, gadzooks! It's an advance paperback of THE IRON ROAD by some guy. Available in the first week of July, ORDER NOW to avoid disappointment. Between us, this one is really bloody good. uk.bookshop.org/p/books/the-...

A paperback copy of THE IRON ROAD by D Wragg Esq laying on some grass - perhaps the same as a previous photo, perhaps not - taken once again by Child #2, 10yo paparazza. The cover is greyscale but for the title in teal, and features the book's primary cast looking moody and unfulfilled. Where does he get his ideas? None can say, for legal reasons.

And what's this coming over the hill? Only @rjbarker.bsky.social in his magnificent striding boots (a Cuban heel?). Cannot wait to get started on this, if only to sniff at word choices. Massive thanks to @bellapagan.bsky.social and Tor UK

A advance copy of MORTEDANT'S PERIL by RJ Barker, lying on a different patch of grass, taken by Child #2 (age 10) who still fancies herself something of a photographer. The cover is sort of purple with a central red and orange flame, in which birds are circling. The typeface is very cool

Most excellent #book haul this week. First I was lucky enough to attend the launch of the extraordinary CAST AWAY by Francesca de Tores. An account of the historical marooning of Alexander Selkirk, the inspiration for Robinson Crusoe, you would not believe how much wanking is in this book.

A hardback copy of CAST AWAY by Francesca de Tores lying on some grass, taken by Child #2 (age 10) who fancies herself something of a photographer. The book is bright yellow with blue text, and a red woodcut of the historical protagonist, Alexander Selkirk, looking agonised(?)

Apparently it's NOT TOO LATE for an eligibility post, if anyone is still in the market for such things. My release of 2024 was novel THE COMPANY OF THE WOLF (hardback, HarperVoyager), not just my best book yet but a genuinely excellent bit of work. Please consider it in your, uh, considerations...

The cover of The Company of the Wolf, drawn by Gavin Reece and designed by Emily Langford. It shows a crouching white-haired woman looking sceptical, while behind her a teenaged girl holds a crossbow and looks, well, a bit spaced out to be honest. Behind them are some other reprobates. It's misty.
