Roswell Rising in Bigger Print

As promised, Roswell Rising is now available in 9.2 font size text. The original format with 8.5 size text is no longer available off the press; although there are some stocked and used copies floating around. The result of this is that the page count has increased from 301 to 386; I've kept the trim size the same. Therefore it is now a thicker book and therefore more expensive; £10 instead of £9. I don't think this counts as a new edition. I have made minor changes to the text, such as correcting a few of the more obvious typographical errors I remembered from before. I have also added four sentences to the sanatorium scene in Chapter 13. This is something I cursed myself for not doing just after I submitted the copy for publication. I have also added an advertisement for Roswell Revealed at the end; and also a timeline of events comparing the real world with the story's setting. I have changed the cover design so that there is an ad for Revealed on the back.
Rising can be purchased at all good bookshops and online, see: http://hpanwo-bb.blogspot.co.uk/2016/08/roswell-rising-is-here.html.

  1. OK, lets see how good you are as an author. Write a short story with 3000-5000 words with just this sentence to guide you. "An elderly man walks into his local police station."

  2. Marshall, I used to love it when my English teacher at school said things like that! I'll see what I can do.
