The Orphaned Worlds_Book Two of Humanity's Fire Page 49

by Michael Cobley


  A joyful brandishing of the sombrero goes out to John Parker and John Berlyn, my agents at Zeno, to Joshua Bilmes, to the team at Thomas Schluck, to my German publishers Heyne and my French publishers, Bragelonne. A big Dia Duit to Gary Gibson over in Taiwan, to Stewart Robinson in Musselburgh, to Ian McDonald in Belfast, to Eric Brown, Ian Sales, Jack Deighton, Neil Williamson, Keith Brooke, Debbie Miller, the whole GSFWCers, the Edinburgh Writers Group, to Ian Whates, to Pete Crowther, to Trevor Denyer, to the indefatigable Charlie Stross, to Cuddles and Scottish conrunners everywhere. And a salute to Graeme Fleming, progmetalmeister of the Southern Domains (AKA Paisley), and a tip o’ the hat to Ronnie and Katie, to Spencer and Adrian, and absolutely every metal fan in Glasgow and beyond.

  Limitless thanks go, of course, to Susan, who was very patient with my woolgathering and absentmindedness while the book gestated and emerged onto the page.

  The soundtrack for this particular literary journey was provided by Rammstein, Megadeth (new CD is a stormer, I kid you not), the mighty Pallas, Gazpacho, Wobbler, Black Water Rising, the brilliant Red Flag, Gandhi’s Gunn, Heaven & Hell, IQ, the long-lost Mudshark, Sensational Alex Harvey Band, Porcupine Tree, Eternal Elysium, Younger Brother, and Glass Hammer. From here on out, the music just keeps getting better and better. Venceremos!
