Greetings from the coal-face of independent publishing, folks, where the big news today is that your humble correspondent's The Big O has SOLD OUT at Murder Ink on Dawson Street, Dublin (genial host and improbable crime nut Michael Gallagher pictured, left). Yep, that's A WHOLE FIVE COPIES - or would have been, had Michael not insisted on keeping a copy for his window display. Which is nice ... Sad to relate, Murder Ink doesn't have a website, but John Connolly loves the place, as does Critical Mick, and that's plenty good enough for us. You can always contact Michael Gallagher for orders 'n' whatnot at murderbook@iol.ie ... or just drop him a line telling him what a smashing bloke he is.

I confess to getting at least one Big O last Saturday. You want evidence? I've even got pictures!! http://www.criticalmick.com/images/currently_reading_may_07.JPG

That shop is absolutely great - long may it continue. Speaking as someone who likes a bit of crime but doesn't know much about it, the guy behind the counter has been fantastic when it comes to recommendations.
