2009 marked my debut as a novelist and I want to thank my readers for a fantastic four years. With your help Library of the Dead/Secret of the Seventh Son, Book of Souls, The Tenth Chamber and The Devil Will Come have become international bestsellers with over 3 million copies sold in 30 international translations. I’ve completed three other books — Near Death (which made its debut in Italy in 2012 as L’Ultimo Giorno) and The Keepers of the Library, the 3rd book in the Library of the Dead trilogy (2013). My seventh novel, just completed, is tentatively titled The Resurrection Maker.
I’m gratified that the response to my books has been especially strong in Europe where titles have reached the top-ten bestseller lists in Italy, Spain, France, UK and Germany.
In the United States, Secret of the Seventh Son and Book of Souls were published by HarperCollins and I’m pleased to report that HarperCollins will also be publishing the 3rd book in the trilogy, The Keepers of the Library, June 2013.
The Keepers of the Library:
The End of Days is near…
The Isle of Wight, January 1775. On a stormy night, an American traveller makes an astonishing discovery on the site of a long-abandoned monastery. Locals believe the site is cursed, but Benjamin Franklin is too curious about the apocryphal Library of Vectis to turn away…
Florida, 2026. Will Piper, former FBI agent, is married, retired and living a life of leisure, his thoughts far from the notorious Doomsday Killer case that vaulted him into minor celebrity status fifteen years earlier. But according to what that investigation uncovered at a secret government site in Nevada, the world will change irrevocably on February 9, 2027. Is it the End of Days? No one knows what the Horizon, as it’s been called, will bring, and much of the world is suspended between pre-apocalyptic hedonism and despair.
When a new Doomsday Killer emerges—inexplicably targeting only Chinese people—and Will’s son, Phillip, disappears, Will is instantly drawn back into the case. Spanning centuries and continents, the breathless, high-stakes adventure that he is pulled into may at last reveal what the Library cannot about the future of humankind—if there is to be one…
Two of my books, The Tenth Chamber and The Devil Will Come have been published in English but haven’t made it to the US yet. You can order them from Amazon.com or Amazon Canada or Amazon UK
