Night night book worms; I'm turning the bedside lamp out now.

My Torchwood DVDs arrived while I was evacuated for Hurricane Ike. The cable was out, so guess what I was watching? I started with Gwen and Rhys' wedding, and went from there. Haven't watched Exit Wounds yet, but. . .that's a hard one to watch. Will get to Torchwood Declassified when I'm finished re-watching all the episodes.
Woo hoo!!
'Something in the Darkness' was published in the UK in August.
Not according to online retailers ;)
Anthony.
OK, so it might actually have been at the beginning of September. In any case, I received my copy from Amazon.co.uk on 3rd September.
Re Something in the Darkness:
Apparently he copied a lot of reviews of livejournal (LJ) without the consent of the authors or acknowledgement of their real names, only using their lj handle. This has led to correspondence between these and a call not to buy the book as he is making money from them!
He used these reviews in the first book too and apparently again without consent.
