Comments: Hey Graham, I was a heavy user on this message board when it first started about 12 years ago, been a fan for over 20 years now and thanks to the joy of my other half's kindle I have just finished Mirror which was the first ever book of yours I read. Loved it just as much now. Have downloaded Pariah now and can't wait to start it as I haven't read it in years
Hope they continue to "kindle" your books
Best wishes, James

Comments: Ted...I very much appreciate your comments because I have been working very hard for years to develop a narrative voice which never comes between the reader and the story. It is a lot more difficult and more technical than most people think, and also requires a high degree of poetic rhythm. Realistic dialog is especially hard to achieve, since you can never reproduce verbatim what people really say or (a) it would sound unrealistic and (b) it would be extremely boring. So -- again -- thanks for noticing!

Comments: Dear Mr. Masterton, I discovered you lovely writing style in late 2010 and have yet to be disappointed by a book of yours. The only other author who has this Hammett-meets-Fleming approach to prose that I know of is the early Len Deighton.
That low key, highly specific narrative voice which makes the 30's - 40's American pulps and the 50's-60's British spy novels what they are - a wonderful experience every time. And having this narrative voice in an adventure of the fantastic, instead of the usual crime and spy intrigues - this is very much a cause for celebration.
Thank you for all the lovely hours spend with your books, and I hope to spend many more the same way.

Comments: Smart Rhino Books have just published ZIPPERED FLESH: tales of body enhancement gone bad, edited by Weldon Burge. It includes my less-than-tasteful story SEX OBJECT.

Comments: I think some more are on the way, Garry, but unfortunately my previous US publishers Dorchester are pretty much up the Swannee and it will take a little time before I re-establish a new US publisher. Signs are very hopeful, though.

Comments: I think, yes, all of the Manitou novels will eventually appear in Kindle format. But I have such a huge backlist that it is taking some time. More news as I get it.

Comments: Thank you for passing on the gospel Dominique. I know I have a substantial backlist but I assure you there are more to come...THE RED HOTEL, GARDEN OF LIES, COMMUNITY and PANIC. Plus a major disaster novel DROUGHT. Plus a new collection of short stories is already taking shape, including EX VOTO, the story of s man who refuses to believe in the divinity of saints; SAINT BRONACH'S SHRIFT the story of a man who does believe in the divinity of saints but gets badly burned by his belief; WHAT THE DARK DOES, the story of what happens when you hang clothes on the back of your bedroom door at night; and LITTLE GOUGER, the story of a girl who was so beautiful that nobody was allowed to look at her. Haven't got a title for this collection yet, but it will probably be SOMETHING OF FEAR.
