The first copies of Powys Media's first new "Prisoner" novel, "The
Prisoner's Dilemma", will be available at a series of signings in
the UK, ahead of its formal release at the end of March.
First up is a signing / reading event in Portmeirion -- site of the
Village -- on Saturday, March 12th at 1 PM. This coincides with
the Six Of One Prisoner convention at the hotel that weekend, but
is not a convention-only event -- it's open to all visitors. Authors
Jonathan Blum and Rupert Booth, and editor Mateo Latosa, will
also be around the village all weekend -- being interviewed in the
convention, chatting with day-visitors, possibly staging extra
impromptu readings for all comers in the Village surroundings.
Two London signings are also confirmed: one at Who Shop
International in East Ham, London at 2 PM on Saturday March
19th (Patrick McGoohan's birthday, and also Number 6's), and at
Tenth Planet in Barking, London at 12 PM on Sunday March 20th.
There may be at least one additional signing outside of London,
but it is not yet confirmed.
Copies will continue to be available at these shops after the
signings, ahead of their formal release. UK import copies
should also be available at the Forbidden Planet chain and
specialty shops such as Galaxy Four in Sheffield.
A US launch event is tenatively planned for I-CON on Long
Island, the weekend of April 8th, and possibly an Australian one
once Blum is back in the country, but neither is definite at this
point. More news will be announced in the upcoming weeks!
