Book Tour!

To celebrate the launch of The Black Prism, Orbit is sending me on a book tour. I’ve been trying to put together a rider to rival some of these. I think I’ll demand Vegemite. I’m a simple man.

    Probably already been said and will likely not happen for a while yet, but COME TO THE UK!!!

    We’d love to see you and London is an amazing city

    1. Selena Hallahan says:

      Or, in September, Edinburgh…. 😀

    2. Saad says:

      yes please come to London!!

      1. Jayson says:

        Please come to the UK, damn I’ll even put you up if it helps!

        1. Heaven-leigh says:

          *starts chanting* UK! UK! UK!

  2. Brice says:

    I will be there for the Glendale signing for sure! Very excited for the next book, thanks for all your creative work.

  3. Katie says:

    COME TO HOUSTON, TX! You’ll be right close in Dallas anyway, its just a hop skip and a jump. It would be excellent to meet the author for once that my friends and myself that are fans would jump for the chance.

    1. Alderan says:

      Why don’t you just go to Dallas? Really, if he was in Michigan but was like two hours drive from me…. Heck yea I’d drive that.

    2. Aaron says:

      I’m all for that one would be nice to not have to drive the 6 hours to dallas 😛 COME TO HOUSTON !!!

      1. Fallon says:

        Yes please come to Houston!!! It would be so much easier to drive a hour then five!!!^-^

      2. Ginger says:

        Please come to Houston!

        I am reading your books. The other day I saw this guy in Starbucks reading your books. We are all reading your books. Come to Houston please!

  4. j4ysivyer says:

    Just saw your rider and, as an Aussie, I applaud your “demand” 🙂 Moreover, I’m so looking forward to this new book – the first 3 chapters were fantastic! Just wish I had the opportunity to go to one of your signings. Oh, well…one day, I hope.

    1. Quicksilveraus says:

      Ugh Vegemite :s

  5. Tim says:

    We’re happy little vegemites as bright as bright can be/We all enjoy our vegemite for breakfast, lunch and tea/Our mummies say we’re growing stronger every single week/Because we love our vegemite/We all adore our vegemite/It puts a rose on every cheek

    Had to do that.

  6. ria says:

    Come to Dublin, Ireland. Loads of people here love your books. Forget the west coast, do a European tour. It’ll be great fun, something different. You can see America whenever you want – get Orbit to send you across the Atlantic 🙂

    1. Selena Hallahan says:

      I agree!!! Come on…. Dublin…. 😀

      1. dazen says:

        please please please come to Ireland !! and Cork 🙂

  7. Hannah says:

    so…Brisbane, Australia is out?

    1. Bonfire says:

      Yeah seriously I would travel to Brisbane to get all of them signed! But I guess we Aussie miss out again!

  8. Judy Gauvin says:

    Well it seems you’re going to be staying in the US this round… Maybe you can pick New York for the last stop though? Give your Canadian Fans from across the border a chance to pop down?

    It would give me an excuse to arrange a kidnapping of my fiance and see how long it takes him to figure out where I’m taking him… 😉

  9. Gabe says:

    Come to Victoria, BC! “The most beautiful place on earth!”

  10. Noah says:

    Vancouver B.C. It’s less than three hours north of Seattle.

    If the Seattle date wasn’t on a Thursday I’d totaly be there.

    1. Martin says:

      Come to Toronto please!

  11. Chris says:

    New York, NY. The east coast needs Weeksian goodness as well.

  12. Dario Madrigal says:

    I know I probably won’t be as convincing as others, but I like for you to come to Chicago, IL its a great city and I’ve lived here my entire life and I wouldn’t wish to live any where else so I wish you could stop by. I really enjoyed your books more than you know thanks for time.

    1. Laura says:

      I totally agree…Brent Weeks going to Chicago would be the best thing ever!

  13. Jessica says:

    Miami, Fl is awesome that time of year

  14. Ron C> says:

    I third the NY option, been dying to meet you over here. I’ll keep my fingers crossed 🙂

  15. Dex says:

    August 29th! I’m there

  16. Linda says:

    Dear Brent,

    I am so excited Orbit has chosen Orlando for your signing. I will definately be there, I loved the Shadow books and am looking forward to Prisim.
    All the best, Linda

  17. Joe says:

    when you hit denver, do you think you could come down to colorado springs?

  18. Kristina says:

    Ohhhh, darn I move out of Denver on August 20th. I am so dissapointed.

  19. Jesselyn says:

    Super excited that you are going to be in Dallas. My husband (and I) is a huge fan of your Night Angel trilogy. He likes to pretend he is not though. Liking fantasy novels is unfortunately not “cool”. Thank you, however to you are Orbit for (finally!) decent fantasy covers. If I had to carry another book with a bodice ripped hooded man on a cliff on the cover…
    All that to say. We will be there!

  20. Stacy says:

    Seriously? No East Coast? Ok… Florida… let me revamp…. NO NY???? I just got home for a few days and looked up your schedule. I don’t know about that publisher of yours. Leaving out Philly, NYC and Boston? Mmmmmm…. LOL… I know how it works.. I’m just sad. I’m sure I know SOMEONE in those cities that can say hello for me and get me a signed copy 😉 Remember…. sometime in the middle of those crazy flights and timetables to… breathe. Best advice I ever got before I hit the road! Enjoy!

  21. Hyatt says:

    I know! What about GA or NC or VA?But mostly GA.

  22. Adele says:

    So Brittan is a no-go? All the good things happen in America 🙁

  23. Daniel Bennett says:

    It really saddens me as a fan who has read the night angel series multiple times and listened to the graphic audio to hear that you arent even coming remotely close to the northeast there are quite a few fans of your work up here and I know many of them are eagerly awaiting your next series. Is it possible to request/send in for an signed copy of your new book it would really make someone like me happy.

  24. Garrett LaLone says:

    You should make a way to link these dates/events as an event on facebook on someone’s calendar. I’m in San Diego and will most DEFINITELY be attending the book signing on the 27th, and I’d be very proud to show it on my facebook page.

  25. mark anthony devaney says:

    the books are that good i didnt read them i inhaled the fuckers completly!!!!!!

    1. Moe Smith says:

      and swearing about it only goes to show how truly intelligent you are.

      fail.

      1. kiwi says:

        you can’t bitch about someone being stupid while not capitalizing a word in your sentence.

        “fail.”

  26. Nicolas Reid says:

    D.C. would love to have you as well. Come visit the east coast! We don’t bite… hard.

  27. Nathen Wheel says:

    No northeast Us states dang, think about the New Yorkers!

  28. Nathen Wheel says:

    P.S. My offer to send my copy of the book and 20$ still stands…. 🙂

  29. Brad Tarnowsky says:

    There is an aspiring author here in Greensboro, NC who would REALLY like to meet you!!

  30. Piotr Szczepanski says:

    Hello Mr. Weeks,

    Patiently and with great eagerness I’m awaiting the time that you will visit Europe. I do realise that this event might not happen for few more years, but we’ll be here … waiting. Doesn’t really matter which country or city you’ll decide to visit, i assure you, everywhere you’ll have plenty of fans excited about your visit 🙂

    Till we see each other, best regards.

  31. Doug Brady says:

    Kansas City would also be an excellent location. It’s one of the largest cities in the U.S. and it’s located in the Midwest which is not represented in your tour (Colorado doesn’t count). Just something to consider. Of course, this might just be my ploy to get you within driving distance for myself as well…

  32. Josh says:

    Stop by Bakersfield, CA. You have quite a few avid fans out here that would LOVE a chance to meet you!

  33. Andrius says:

    OMG! Brent, you are just so kick-ass i have to use the word kick-ass to describe it.
    I don’t know if you actually read this but if you do I will officially become eccstatic.
    Before I go any further, I just have to say that your books are all just simply amazing.
    There is simply no comparisson to the level of writing you have thus attained in the fantasy genre (comming from someone who has read all there is to read in said category… I will spare you from my enumeration of them… suffice to say there are many).
    Your mastery for creating not characters but actual people in your books is astounding. I can only hope to one day be as good as you. Your plots are constantly filled with non-stop action and suspense and I cannot fathom how you put it together so well.
    Simply put, I’m a huge fan. I live in Montreal and have been spreading the good news (your news that is) ever since I first read your breath-taking trilogy. I work at my local Indigo (Chapters as you might know it… its a book strore if you don’t…) and have been taking much care as to your book beeing on constant display (hope this doesn’t seem like obsession, even though it probably is…). My friends and I would love to see you come by (it gets boring in our igloos… lol). Plus, I’ve never been to a book signing so it would be pretty awesome.
    Anyway, that pretty much sums up all I had to say. In case this comment is ment for discussion and as means to contact you, than, yes:
    FAIL
    However, if this does reach you, I would love to back from you. I have so many questions to ask (being an aspiring author). Anyway, hope your hand does’t cramp up from writing!
    Yours truly,
    Andrius

  34. Matt Hayes says:

    Aw, man, Dallas! Crap, I’m in San Atonio…

  35. kiwi says:

    No Canadian locations at all? I call shenanigans!

  36. Dylan says:

    Come to Ohio

  37. Destiny says:

    Sooooo… when ya coming to St. Louis?? How about the 9th of September? Or, actually, any day in September besides the 15th. I have a thing. But other than that, totally workable!

    Some other people will probably come, too. I’ll invite my family or something 🙂

  38. amanda says:

    Please make the hop down to Austin! Austin is better than Dallas anyway!

  39. Jonathan Triplett says:

    I can’t wait till tomorrow when you come to Seattle!!!!

  40. keith says:

    any chance of coming to Canada?

  41. The Druid says:

    Well what can i say.. after reading the night angel trilogy thrice, and laughing out loud when i read the end of your acknowledgements, i have to give it to you Mr Weeks.. ill give u the chance alright!! You keep ’em comin and ill keep on reading ’em.. give me that “helluva ride”
    JUST COME TO ENGLAND SO I CAN GET IT SIGNED!!

  42. Josh says:

    Come to Minnesota Brent!

  43. RYAN BAUGHMAN says:

    ONE WORD = “MIDWEST”

    PLEASE, THANKS!

    BTW- AWESOME WORK!

    RYAN B.

  44. brad dickey says:

    Thanks B.W. for a great event in Dallas this most previous Sunday!

    It was a sincere pleasure to watch you work with so many folx, and talk with them, taking time to connect. It must have been the high quality of TEXANS present, because I know not all Book Signings are so pleasant. I dunno maybe YOU had something to do with it as well.

    I took the liberty to sit back and just watch you interact, and the people were excited coming INTO the store, but they were MORE excited after connecting for a bit with you and getting their books inked by your hand. Even some frumpy mothers who came in cause their child drug them in, (drugged them in? ooo DUI bad idea), got excited listening to your excitement, and left smiling and nearly, NEARLY, as excited as their kiddos were.

    You were gracious with your time. Dallas, and I thank you.

    bd

  45. Grant Convey says:

    I request you come somewhere in the Midwest. preferably Nebraska, but just the Midwest will do.

  46. Kit says:

  47. Joshua S. says:

  48. Neneh says:

  49. BigR4014 says:

    Hi Mr. Weeks,
    I just wanted to thank you signing my books at costco. My brother and were the ones that drove down from Tacoma and it was WAAAYYY Worth every mile. My brother and I enjoyed meeting you and your wife. Thank you for sitting down and having a conversation with us about your books. it is nice to know that you care about your fans and are really down to earth. I look forward to reading many more of your books in the future. Thanks, again.
    Also, My father-in-law loved what you wrote in his copy. He sends his thanks as well.

  50. Christy says:

    WE LOVE BRENT WEEKS IN THE MIDWEST. Seriously, if you are within a 200 mile radius of the Michiana area, I will be there! (this would also help me with my Christmas list, since my mother and brother would be THRILLED with a signed copy!)

  51. Jason says:

  56. Marc S says:

    You should come do a tour in Canada!

    1. Brett says:

      I second the motion of a tour in Canada Toronto would be awesoe. If you can only do the states I’ll settle for buffalo.

      1. Phil says:

        I’ll jump on this bandwagon. Come on dude!!

        1. Claire says:

    Please, master of the words, find your way to the frozen wasteland in the Midwest known as Wisconsin. Come to the Fox River Valley are or the Green Bay area. I have the NAT and the first of the Black Prism that needs your signature.

    –Archtus

    P.S: I’m sleepy. Up all night reading your books. Again. My words will be strange.

  58. Amanda B. says:

    Would you ever consider making it out to Chicago for a book signing? I introduced all my friends to your Night Angel series back in 2008 and a lot of them would love to get a chance to meet you. (Eventually I’m click that link to get a signed book.) Great writing and intriguing story as always.

    1. Katti B. says:

      I second that, PLEASE come to Chicago!! I’ve never been to a book signing, you’d be my first!!

  59. laura m says:

    definatley come to the uk! Plymouth if poss.

  60. Savannah says:

    You should come to the Middle Tennessee area. I’m not sure how many people read your books here, but I know for a fact that I would love to meet you!

    1. Zachariah Lee Scouten says:

      I would totally come. I would love to shake hands with the genius of the Night Angel Trilogy and now Lightbringer.

    2. Matt R. says:

      Hey, I’m totaly in. but a little more north, say Nashville,TN or Lousville, KY

  61. Sophie Thornton says:

    When are you going to come to Australia?? You have to come soon so I can meet you!!!

    1. Alex says:

      And your’e obviously a fan of vegemite, so why not come down and eat all the vegemite you want?

      1. Bettina says:

        Yeah, come to Australia you have heaps of fans here and there is lots of Vegemite not to mention that Australia is just the best anyway.

  62. Chris says:

    I have been gone for the Air Force for six months, I get back and see that I have missed your San Francisco day. Today you’re in Bakersfield, too far for me to drive today… maybe you should make a quick stop in Fairfield on your way back home… you’ll have me there to praise you for as long as you want…

  63. Steve says:

    Come to Arizona!

  64. peter says:

    Please come to Philadelphia!!!!!

  65. Rico says:

    Why don’t you visit Germany in this “tour” i know that you have many fans here! Cause i promoted your previous books a little bit, by reading from it on air! (i’m moderator at europe’s biggest internetradio #Musik.fm 😉 )

  66. Sean says:

    Come to new orleans we will show you a good time in addition to having a book signing.

  67. Shawn Pogue says:

    Okay, i love your books they are amazing i just started the black prism two days ago and could not lift my eyes from it. I just now finished it and I definatly cannot wait until the next one. Just when is the next book coming out? Oh and If you could come to Tennessee area that would be amazing mainly around Claksville or Nashville. Clarksville is right next to Ft. Campbell so you could do a book signing for the soilders. That would be more plublicity for you among the soilders especially those who are about to go over seas and need something to distract them. One of the soilders I met at the museum they have (I was volunteering there) was reading the night angel trilagy. He said it was the third time he read it but he just loved reading it over and over missing small details each time. He left with the rest of his unit to Afghanistan (sorry terrible speller), so he would miss it unfortunatly. I have much more to say but i think i have rambled quite enough sorry to waste your time. If you want to talk more (would be great) my email is shawnlink32@hotmail.com. I love your my books both night angel trilogy and the black prism, i cant wait until the next one comes out.

  68. brian graham says:

    There are many dedicated followers of your pencraft in Atlanta, GA who would enjoy you coming to our city and signing books. Orlando was so close too. Please consider extending your book tour or have another one. Not only will I be in line with each of your novels and a furry costume for you to sign, I would gladly take you to Atlanta’s most sacred place: the Clermont Lounge. A place where strippers go to die!

    Now you cannot say no.

    Regards,
    Brian

  69. Daryk Nunn says:

    Come to Oklahoma!!!

  70. charlie says:

    1. Sebastian says:

  71. Rachael says:

    Your books are so awesome:) I love your writing style, It is so original. Please please please come to Gainesville, FLl! Oh. In your extras from the Black Prisim where you stated “it has a map of course its good” I have always said the same thing. I always judge a book by its cover and look for maps. Hasn’t failed me yet 😉

    Thanks for the hours of otherworld entertainment.

  82. Scotty G says:

    I would just like to take a moment to thank you for sharing your writings with us. I would of said works because I know sometimes they feel that way, but something that has created such joy and entertainment in soo many others aside from myself must not ever be considered such. I read approximately 3-4 books and week and without a doubt your pieces are among the best I have ver read in the genre. Thank you very much for letting us in to your world and sharing it with us. Please don’t ever stop.
