This is actually pretty nice — these “overall” lists can be tricky (recency bias, classics, votes), so it’s great to see MR EINSTEIN’S SECRETARY make it.

This book has been a special one.

Thanks to everyone who voted for it!

It’s out today in the UK! Enjoy!

After last night’s monster opening event, I’m off and running with Mr E’s Secretary!

For those in Sydney, here are the details for my upcoming in-store book signings.

MR EINSTEIN’S SECRETARY.
It’s epic in its epicness.

And in the UK, COBALT BLUE is out today! Enjoy!

Secretary.
Scientist.
Sister.
Spy.

You’ve never met a secretary like this before.

JUNE 5: A brand-new rip-roarin’ rootin’-tootin’ Jack West Jr short story is released.

(Oh and this is a shelf in my office. LEGO Jack is in there with the Ark, Han and Snake. See if you can spot him!)

It’s available! My free short story: a thriller called ROGER ASCHAM AND THE DEAD QUEEN’S COMMAND. You can get the PDF at matthewreilly.com (for worldwide readers) and as ebooks at Apple, Google and Amazon in Australia. Some escapism for these trying times. Hope you like it.
