my wonderful sycophants.

As advised by those in the know who pay my pieces, who control my narrative, I shall hereby endeavour to fill this post with as much useful information without the hindrance of my rambling getting in the way. I do this because there are some very important things to talk about this week.

Very important.

This has been stressed to me.

Now it has been stressed to you.

I’m definitely not going to ramble on about my show of the year. I'm definitely not going to hesitate in delivering important information, and I quote, “before you go on your usual word wanderings, Robert, which are very entertaining but don’t really help get the information across.”

In fairness, I think they are right.

With that in mind, Obliterated (which is criminally underrated like Teenage Bounty Hunters) is my show of the year. It's a catastrophe that it is likely to be missed by the masses because on the surface it seems like a shallow deep show with a prettier than pretty cast (incredibly pretty across the board). When really it’s clever and hilarious, I think it goes over many people’s heads.

Now in truth, The Bear is once again an absolute piece of art. However, it got pipped at the line for my “favourite show of the year” award by Obliterated. So guys, take a day, get some crisp sandwiches and watch as soon as you can because I’m fairly certain it will get no second season, nor will it last long up on Netflix. These streaming sites are taking down all these shows and it is such a shame.

You know They who are in control will probably be a little pissed that I’m lamenting less successful TV shows, but all this talk of Teenage Bounty Hunters has just gone and made me lament Teenage Bounty Hunters all over again. Let us just stop for a moment and think fondly of that show. Someday, when they make Spark City the TV show… I’ll still probably prefer Teenage Bounty Hunters, but for now, I shall absolutely not suggest you should call in sick from work, or go mitching from school and just watch Obliterated and Teenage Bounty Hunters.

But you really should.

I would.

And I’m awesome.

And I’m also awesome at getting important information across.

Now look, I could always be wrong in recommending these shows- so let me take this moment and suggest that if you enjoyed Cobra Kai, which is also totally an awesome show- then I most certainly think you will enjoy both Obliterated and Teenage Bounty Hunters.

Okay, I might be losing the run of my typing here. Might even be going off point from telling you guys some fantastic news about Spark City…but I just feel its very important that I clarify that I don’t think Cobra Kai is at risk of getting cancelled, unlike Obliterated, or the tragic genius of Teenage Bounty Hunters. So, at least it is nice to have a few certainties in life.

To continue on for a moment about Cobra Kai, I must say the second last season wasn’t my favourite – there was just way too much about Sam going on-I mean really, can anyone argue that Tori isn’t the more interesting character? More Tori, that’s what I say. Thankfully, the last season that aired was near perfect though and I eagerly await the next season.

Where was I?

Oh, yes, I am the bearer of some outstanding important news altogether.

Without any further delay.

Actions of Gods is finally done. That’s it. All done. Final checks and edits are complete.

FUKEN READY!!!!!

All that’s left is for you, my wonderful Spark City fanatic, is to go out and prebook it so it arrives straight to your kindle or whatever on launch day.

But when, the Rob? I hear you say.

And will it be as good as Obliterated or Teenage Bounty Hunters?

I’ll answer the first last. And the last first. And I’ll lie about one of them.

Obliterated and Teenage Bounty Hunters are almost, but not quite, as awesome as The Actions of Gods.

As for release, well, next December 29^th sounds about right to me. So just under a year and it will be in your hands.

Actually, no.

That’s the fuken lie.

They’ll be so pissed I made that joke as well.

Cos it’s not like I haven’t enraged them enough as it is.

Right, important information time part two-

It is out on February 29^th 2024. So like a month and a half or so.

Okay, calm down, there’s still more to come.

Here is a front cover tease. It’s not quite as good as the cover of Obliterated, but that’s only because it’s a tease. Once you see the reveal you’ll be like “Aw sweet, that is better than the awesome Obliterated that I just watched and gave a loved it thumbs up on Netflix. Ooh, I must watch Teenage Bounty Hunters and then go online and set up a petition to make Spark City on Netflix."

Also, They wanted me to tease something about my secret project that I’m currently working on. They heard my pitch and lost their shit. That’s probably why They put up with my shit the whole time.

Here’s a clue.

It is set in the Spark City World, but it is neither a sequel nor a prequel.

It is neither a Novella nor a thousand page epic.

What is it?

Fuken awesome, that’s what it is.

And it begins with the letter R.

Right, all this talk of beautiful things not acknowledged by the masses, I’m off to rewatch Teenage Bounty Hunters (which has an imdb of 7.7 and a 94% rotten tomatoes score.)

Take care of yourself and each other.

And take care of me.

By buying my books and recommending them to the world.

All the best.

The Rob.

PS, first person to set up a petition that reaches as high as 12 million signatures to make Spark City TV show, or movie (I don’t mind really) gets a slightly used signed copy from me. Away you go my little lunatics.
