In late-breaking news, The Alchemist of Souls has now appeared on the Random House website for pre-order, with a US print publication date of February 28, 2012 
Unfortunately, the blurb is currently suffering from an even worse attack of Chinese Whispers than the Bookseller announcement back in April, so I’m a bit loath to publicize it until I can get that fixed. I feel like the actual plot of my book is getting buried under the weight of increasingly wild (and inaccurate) speculation about the part of my world which doesn’t even feature in the novels, which is very frustrating.
Hopefully I can get this straightened out before it gets totally out of hand…
