Hi Linwood, I just finished "Never saw it coming" and enjoyed it very much. I was wondering if you had any plans to write more Keisha Ceylon novels in the future? All the best from Melbourne, Australia - Jeff.
Linwood Barclay
Never Saw it Coming was great fun to write. It started as a novella about a quarter of the length of NSIC that I wrote for a UK literacy program. My publishers asked me to spin it out into a novel. (In the original, it ends after Keisha's encounter with Wendell, and the Justin storyline wasn't in it at all.) I don't have plans to write about Keisha again, but I've left the door open. Melbourne was part of my Australian book tour in 2009, and I hope to get back one day. It's a great city.

Mr Barclay .. not a question, simply to say I have just been introduced to your work and look forward to reading more . I am one to read books in order so I will start with your Trilogy and hopefully move backward. Wishing you much success in 2017 & hope you return to Uxbridge sometime soon?

I'm halfway through Whistle and loving it. So what I needed after a hard week--absorbing and imaginative. Thank you. I'm sensing strong echoes of Needful Things (mentioned in your book) and Something Wicked This Way Comes. Did these books influence you during the writing?

I just read A Tap on the Window. I was just killing time waiting for another book to arrive. It was amazing! I was so confused the whole time and kept on the edge of my seat. Even when I thought I had it figured out I was wrong and then wrong again. Great writing! Is there any order to read your books or are they all stand alone?
