Dead Beat available for preorder online…
As you may have learned from reading the news items at our website, Dead Beat, book seven of the Dresden Files, has had its release date bumped up to May of next year — plus, it’ll be in hardcover.
We’ve now learned it’s already available for preordering online!
You can preorder through a local independent bookseller by way of BookSense.Com (Link), or if Amazon’s your thing, order there (Link).
Happy (pre)ordering!
Dead Beat cover art is in!
We’ve got Dead Beat cover art!

EDIT: Several folks have asked about the cover’s art and design. The artist is Chris McGrath. The designer is Ray Lundgren.
Schedule Bump
Jim reports about the release dates on his next books:
I heard this week that my publisher is moving up the next Dresden book in the schedule. Book 7, Dead Beat, is coming out in hardback in May rather than August, so you get the new book 3 months early. Similarly, the next Furies book will be out in July rather than October. Cool, huh? 🙂
