Deadhouse Gates

Начало книги

This novel is dedicated to two gentlemen:

David Thomas Jr, who welcomed me to England with an introduction to a certain agent; and Patrick Walsh, the agent he introduced me to. There has been a lot of faith shown over the years, and I thank you both.

With deepest gratitude I acknowledge the following for their support: The staff at Café Rouge, Dorking (keep the coffees coming…); the folks at Psion, whose extraordinary 5 Series was home to this novel's first draft; Daryl and crew at Café Hosete; and, of course, Simon Taylor and the rest at Transworld.

For my family and friends, thank you for your faith and encouragement, without which all that I achieve means little.

Thanks also to Stephen and Ross Donaldson for their kind words, James Barclay, Sean Russell and Ariel. Finally, a big thank you to those readers who took time to write their comments on various websites — writing is a solitary, isolating activity, but you have made it less so.
