Weekender Hello Plus Links

Just a quick note to say hello to everyone we met at the Sci-Fi Weekender, and a specially big hello to everyone who's just discovering this website for the first time! We had a lot of fun doing interviews and panels, meeting up with fans and making new friends.

Our books were so popular that the Telos Table sold out -- if you're one of the customers who missed them, there's a link to order "Liberation" (our guide to Blake's 7) here, another for "Fall Out" (our guide to The Prisoner) here, and you can get "By Your Command" volume 1 (our guide to Battlestar Galactica) here.
