Honourkeeper Nottingham signing photos

It's a few hours after a hard day's signings in Nottingham for the release of Honourkeeper, my second novel about the hardy race of dwarfs.

First stop was Games Workshop Nottingham at Friar Lane. Admittedly, it was a slow start, but I signed the odd few copies of Honourkeeper as well as the recently released Tales of Heresy (which I was editor, alongside Lindsey Priestley). Dan, the GW Nottingham manager, was very amiable and kept me company for most of the hour I was there.


After that, and a little lunch to keep me going, it was over to Warhammer World. Here, I as invited to participate in a game of Warhammer recreating one of the battles (albeit very loosely) in Honourkeeper. I'll be honest, it's been a while since I played Warhammer and I found the experience every bit as fun as I remember.


I was joined by a bunch of other games and I just want to give a shout out to all my fellow gamers, especially to the Dwarf/High Elf alliance that emerged triumphant with me at the end of the battle (you all know who you are).


Special props goes to Jim from Warhammer World, who ran the game expertly well and reminded me of the Warhammer rules at the start of the battle until the old mojo kicked in and all those years of gaming came flooding back - it's just like riding a bike; a bike, spiky bike that launches fireballs and spits lightning bolts. ;-)

As well a couple of hours of enjoyable (and sometimes random) gaming, I also signed a fair few Honourkeepers and Tales of Heresy. Thanks to everyone for coming, especially to a chap called Nick (great name, great name :-)), who had travelled all the way from Leighton Buzzard (I hope that's right, Nick).


I had a lot of fun and thanks too to Rich Packer, the Warhammer World manager, for a well organised and great event. Much appreciated!

Enjoy the snaps of both signings. Hope to be back again soon.
