Evening’s Empires – Chapter 1 and a signed copy competition

Paul McAuley’s brilliant new SF novel, Evening’s Empires, published earlier this month. We see this as an opportunity to share the first wonderful chapter with you and run a competition! There’s still time to take advantage of our offer on The Quiet War eBook – the first book in the sequence – which is £1.99 for a limited time only, if you want to get stuck into that first. Evening’s Empires is the latest novel in the Quiet War sequence, but also works brilliantly as a stand-alone.

You can read the first chapter here.

We have 5 signed copies of Evening’s Empires to give away. To enter, simply read the extract and answer the following question:

How big is Themba’s monolith?
