I’ve been checking out Angry Robot Books recently thanks to Twitter – not a name I was familiar with before, but they publish some pretty cool-looking sci-fi and fantasy titles, they’re British-based (hooray!) and they have a rather neat website.
One of their authors, Lauren Beukes, is coming over from South Africa next week to publicise her next book Zoo City. Her first novel Moxyland looks to be a bit Cory Doctorow-esque and should certainly appeal to the Twitter generation.
Lauren will be signing books at Forbidden Planet next Thursday. Alas, I don’t live in London anymore so I can’t hang out with all the cool kids, but if I did, I would. (Did that make sense?)
