# It is... stonking.
You'll have to wait till the autumn for it to be published.

I'm considering sending the texts of some of his other books to see how they score on sweary words.

# Shameless Plug for Mate Ahoy...
Christopher Brookmyre. There are 6 books in the shops and they're all great. Lots of violence, swearing, satire and funny bits. And sometimes excrement, body parts, and politics.

He's over here, if you want to have a shufty...

# he's trying...
various people have had the rights to some of them... It is almost certain that Parlabane will see light of day on TV or big screen sooner or later. I'd love to see Not the End of the World and One Fine Day in the Middle of the Night filmed too.
