Curses

I'm about 2/3 of the way through Swancon GoH Scott Sigler's novel Contagious (sequel to Infected) and I can't put the damn thing down. Aaaarrggghhhhh! (in a totally good way).

Apologies to the folk at Fantastic Planet but I just haven't been able to get into town to buy it there. I had to take the opportunity when I saw a copy at a chain store.

Must. Read. Now.

I'm still trying to figure out why, if Contagious is the sequel, why it came out in standard paperback before Infected (which doesn't come out in standard pb until March - fortunately, in time for Swancon).

I'd have to walk all the way to the other side of the house to check, but wasn't Infected self-published, whereas Contagious is a Hodder? Is Hodder retrospectively publishing Infected as a standard pb? I originally read Infected as a free pdf download, and then there's the podcasts; Scott doesn't seem to do the usual thing :-)
