So So Special Launch
(
01/08/2011)
A huge thanks to everyone who came along to the launch of Rob Shearman's new book,
Everyone's Just So So Special, on Friday night and made it such a success. As you can see from our picture, Rob's editor Xanna Eve Chown came along, as did Big Finish stalwarts David Richardson and Nick Briggs, and a lovely time was had by all!
The book tells the history of history itself, with one tale per century. Discover the inside story of some of the world's forgotten heroes and villains and learn that from the most renowned figures to the lowliest who ever lived, everyone really is just so so special. The collection is currently available in
hardback for a mere £14.95, and you can order it by clicking here. If you'd like to become fully immersed in the history of the world as seen by Rob, however, there are still 15 special edition copies of our
leatherbound edition available.
With each copy sold (at a mere £40), Rob will write a brand new, original short story starring a fictitious ancestor of the book's purchaser (or a nominated other party, if you're buying the book as a gift!). The stories will all ultimately be made available online, so everyone will be able to read them all, but only the purchaser will have a hard copy, written out in Rob's own fair hand (and suitable for framing!). If you'd like to order one of these once-in-a-lifetime purchases, click
here. You can also buy the normal leatherbound edition for £29.95 by clicking
here.
If you'd prefer to wait, there will also be a paperback edition, which is released next year, date to be announced. To pre-order that, click
here.
The launch, which featured a reading by Rob from the book and an interview conducted by media man and frequent Big Finish writer Matthew Sweet, will be made available as a podcast sometime in the near future, so if you weren't there you'll be able to hear what you missed!
