Hi. My name's Jon Evans. I'm an author, world traveller, and recovering techie. I write thrillers about twentysomething travellers caught up in danger in exotic places. I also just agreed to script a graphic novel for Vertigo Comics, and I write the occasional screenplay or magazine piece when bored.
News flash: HarperCollins has released my latest novel Invisible Armies in full, for free, on their web site until June 30th. Read it there while you can!
My first novel, Dark Places (called Trail Of The Dead in the UK) won the Arthur Ellis Award for Best First Novel, and has been translated into German, Dutch, and Japanese. Booklist called my second book, The Blood Price, "fantastic." My latest novel, Invisible Armies, has just been rereleased in mass-market paperback by HarperCollins. My journalism has been published in The Globe & Mail, The Walrus, and Wired magazine.
I'm using MySpace partly for shameless self-marketing; but I'm also going to use it as a photo blog. I've lived and travelled all over the world - visiting some sixty countries across six continents - and a couple times a week, I'll post a picture I've taken in some exotic location, along with a little one-paragraph description/essay.
For far, far more than you ever wanted to know about me, including my text blog, see my official web site.
BLOOD PRICE
Visit the Blood Price webpage.
"Reading BLOOD PRICE reminded me of being a kid running down a too-steep hill, going faster and faster so that you can barely get your feet in front of you quickly enough to stop, loving every second of it. You can't stop. You don't want to stop.... I wanted to keep reading to find out what the hell happened next." — Quill & Quire
