CHRONAL ENGINE II!

Deinosuchus and tyrannosaurids (Utah MNH)

I am delighted to announce that the sequel to CHRONAL ENGINE (i.e., manuscript sometimes known as CHRONAL ENGINE II: THE WRATH OF KHAAN) is scheduled for publication by Clarion/Houghton Mifflin Harcourt!

What's it about?  Well, here's a teaser: Not long after the events of CHRONAL ENGINE, a mysterious letter found beneath the floorboards of the ranch house sends the teens back to the Cretaceous in an attempt to rescue Mad Jack Pierson!

Dromaeosaurid (Utah MNH)

We don't actually have a final title yet (one of the working titles -- and the title in today's Publishers' Marketplace announcement -- is CHRONAL PATHFINDER, but that might change, as well).  Obviously, the covers below aren't real covers -- I just like the Pulp-O-Mizer.  :-).

Thanks to my agent Ginger Knowlton and new editor Jennifer Greene!

To celebrate, a preview of a new Dino-A-Day T-shirt (photo taken at the Austin Marathon Expo):

Finally, I also greatly pleased to announce that CHRONAL ENGINE will be available in paperback this fall!
