Portadown-based Northern Ireland SF author Darryl Sloan has dropped me a note to tell me that his new book, Chion, a young adult SF novel, was published in January 2007, and is available for purchase through his website.

There is an MP3 excerpt from the book available on his site, and I’ve hopefully copied the link correctly here:

Daryl Sloan has one previous book, Ulterior, which was published in 2002.
