from Charlie’s Diary

…

July will see the publication of my next SF novel from Ace and Orbit, “Glasshouse”, a psychological thriller among the posthuman survivors of a vicious civil war within the human civilization that emerges from the setting of “Accelerando”, hundreds of years hence.

…

Looking forward to 2007 and beyond, I’ve got a two book contract with Ace, for two more SF novels (to be delivered at annual intervals). I haven’t written them yet, but the current plans are for them to be a near-future crime thriller set in Edinburgh in the year 2015 — dealing with a crime that doesn’t exist yet — and then the long-delayed sequel to “Iron Sunrise”, in which Rachel Mansour gets to deal with Space Pyrates. (You can’t go wrong with Space Pyrates, right? Arr!)

..sweet..
