The Devils won a Dragon award! But I can still say I never get any awards because I'm too dangerous a subversive punk maverick, right?

James Cameron spills on why he *has* to adapt The Devils – a fantasy novel with monks, werewolves, pirates and vampires set in an alternate medieval Europe.

“The whole thing is off its tits,” he tells Empire. “It’s nuts.”

I’m sure JRR Tolkien sold a lot of books. But did he have a commemorative plaque on a bookstore toilet? I think not.

Joe Abercrombie's First Law series (no spoilers please!) has been very cool so far. The characters and world have definitely sucked me in. But gods, Abercrombie is obsessed with described what everyone's mouth is doing at all times.

Don't know if @joeabercrombie.com would've bet on being recommended by Duran Duran's Simon Le Bon (in a German interview):
"Yes, I'm currently reading an action thriller by Joe Abercrombie: "The Devils." Absolutely fantastic."

Simon Le Bon: „Ich kam vom Bowie-Konzert und fühlte mich betrogen“

Der Sänger von Duran Duran spricht vor dem Düsseldorf-Konzert seiner Band über Lieblingslieder, Tour-Erlebnisse und den besten Bond-Song.
