Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? Launching THE FICTIONAL MAN!

Forbidden Planet became unreal last night as we officially launched Al Ewing's first book for Solaris, THE FICTIONAL MAN.

An unsettling tale about a Los Angeles where it's becoming increasingly difficult to tell who is real and who isn't, THE FICTIONAL MAN has already received a five star review from SFX, which called "a fascinating tour de force" and said "it's hard to see how Ewing could possibly better this exhilarating page-turned".

We gathered at Forbidden Planet in London for the man who we assume is the REAL Al Ewing to sign and talk to fans, before heading off to the salubrious night spots of London town for glasses of non-alcoholic beverages and sober conversation. Please note that at least part of the last sentence is a lie.

THE FICTIONAL MAN is published on 9th May in the UK and Ireland.


The unsettling grin of a madman...
