It's been something of a mad week for us at The Hobcast Book Show. We've been on the road with our annual visit to the London Book Fair at Olympia, and spent two days in Dorset discussing books with bestselling author Rachel Maclean. Somehow we've also found time to speak to Hobeck Books author Stacey Murray ahead of the release of her first novel for us, the brilliant psychological thriller The Thief of Joy. Stacey sets her story in Buxton and the surrounding hills and valleys of the Peak District, where our protagonist Roz veers from one bad decision to another in her desire to have the life that everyone else around her seems to enjoy. We learn how Stacey's storytelling has been influenced by her experiences in commercial law and film-making, and she reveals what it was like to share a conversation with the late, great Sir Sean Connery.
Also this week, we digest the big news that emerged during LBF24, including big royalty changes promised by Audible to authors and narrators, and will new legislation in the United States to ban TikTok halt the BookTok juggernaut? Plus, we finally bring you a message from the now legendary, Mr Pineapple!
