A Thousand Sons stomp Vampires
Regrettably not a future project of mine, but news that this week A Thousand Sons is the Number 1 SF and Fantasy title, knocking Charlaine Harris off the top spot. And as much as I like Sookie Stackhouse, I'm chuffed to bits at this news. Thanks to everyone who went out and bought a copy, you ROCK!
And in case you're still wondering whether to get a copy, here's some lovely reviews that might change your mind.

Right, back to work on my Sabbat World's short story.

Well done, it's a great book and deserves to be #1!

Congratulations on the No.1 slot! I really enjoyed reading the book, particularly with regard to Ahriman. I have to say his portrayal was nothing like what I imagined him to be (for which I'm grateful!) and he was easily my favourite character in the book.
Next to Wyrdmake that is :)

Congrats, bought the book on Sunday, really looking forward to starting it today now!
Out of interest, where is the best-seller list publically available?

Congrats Graham!!! Another brilliant job!!! Haven't been able to put it down except for a few minutes here and there. You need to come to the States again for another 'Con.

Congratulations Graham. I'm only at page 104, but I can already feel that great things are going to happen.
I expect the 1st spot to be entirely justified !
Cheers !

Congratulations Graham. Unfortunately I'm still waiting for mine to arrive but having read all your previous 40k works I will say it's a long time coming. Now with the ever growing popularity of BL and the HH series maybe more people will experience the genius and majesty of Mechanicum.
Can't wait for Chapters Due.

Glad to help Mr. McNeill....especially since
I purchased 3 copies. Well ok, 2 since one
got paid for and the spare was a gift.
But a well deserving novel to be number one as A Thousand Sons was at least 9 shades of awesome (terrible pun/reference was intended).

Told you mate best i have read in along time! The way you potrayed the T.Sons made the Wolves seem even more magicificent (If thats at all possible) but man do i like Magnus, Ahriman and the rest of the chaps! i dont think any other Legion could have faced them.

Hi there. I’ve just started reading it now, after having my copy signed by Mr McNeill himself in Leeds! Awesome stuff so far. Can’t wait to see how the rest of this turns out :)
