Very glad to hear that you enjoyed the series, and that I didn't let you down. ;)<br /><br />I'm never sure about what's available in what regions. Sorry if some things don't make it to you. I certainly wish anybody anywhere to get my work - if they're nice enough to want it.<br /><br />I'm really happy to have Pride of Carthage as an audiobook too. It was a long time in coming. It felt very good to just be able to do it in partnership with the narrator.<br /><br />I hope to have some more Pride of Carthage news soon.

In the end I gave up looking for it in the local bookstore and spelling your name to the shop assistants and just downloaded the kindle version (after finding out that you don't need the device to read it on the computer).<br />In the beginning your book was up against a mighty obstacle: Since you are one of the three authors whose blogs I read regularly I declared you one of my favorite authors without ever having read a book of yours and so my expectations were extremely high. <br />And I had planned to send the triology to my son as soon as the third book was out in German. So I read very critically. <br />But it did not take too long to get fully enthalled in the story, finding the characterization very satisfying, the development of the plot gripping, the overall problems daunting and making me think "how can they possibly manage to solve this" ... (I wished I was a critic to be able to express it all). In a nutshell, it was one of those books that feel like something important in your live. Right now I feel like starting from the beginning again, because I don't want to say goodbye. <br /><br />On another note:<br />I was very pleased to read that you made "Pride of Carthage" into an audiobook. (It's the next on my list). And so I thought, I would get your other books as audiobooks too. Imagine my annoyance when I was told, that "due to publishing rights" I cannot get "Gabriel's story". Something similar probably holds for "Walk through Darkness". Well, at least I have the Kindle versions - but it would have been nice ... - and maybe I still can hope.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
