We rely on the fans to spread the word. We can only announce the books’ releases. It’s up to the fans to review the books, discuss them. Certainly we can respond to questions, but it would be inappropriate for us to lead discussions of our own work.

I announced the publication of the books on OA and GBA and the Eagle Transporter Forum. From that point on, I can only really only answer questions, give updates, etc.

It’s part of the “silence is unfortunately golden” phenomenon that was mentioned in another thread. All of us, the authors, editors, artists, at Powys would love nothing more than to see the fans debate the content of each novel, the changes, the developments, the little details and revelations. We plan them out very carefully, always with future novels in mind. We set things up in Resurrection that don’t come to fruition until Omega. That’s eight years keeping secrets!

So post away! All we ask is that people put in SPOILER warnings and SPOILER space. Other than that, go for it!

And if people feel like posting on other Space: 1999 forums, well, we won’t complain. That’s what they’re there for–to discuss Space: 1999!

There’s been a little discussion of the new books at Gallifrey Base and TrekBBS.com.

You know, it might be worth getting in touch with the people at io9.com… but you never know if they’d be favourably enthusiastic or play it for laughs.
