Allen Steele writes in to tell us about the new site dedicated to his Coyote series of books:
A year in the making, this new site is the creation of science fiction author Allen Steele and web site designer Gary Rose. Its subject is the Coyote series of novels -- Coyote, Coyote Rising, Coyote Frontier and the forthcoming Coyote Horizon -- and the novels set in its universe, Spindrift and the recently published Galaxy Blues. Among the many features of this site are:I've read a few of the Coyote stories and they are consistently good. Looking at this new website makes me want to crack open the books that have been taunting me from the shelves...

I've read every word Allen Steele ever wrote. I am delighted to find that a new book about the Coyote universe is due in March 2009. I have stopped checking them out of the library and started buying them as soon as they come out because I know I will read and re-read them He has created an extraordinary world in which I can immerse myself completely. Also makes buying for Christmas and birthdays a no-brainer because my entire extended family is equally appreciative of his work.
