Nothing especially new to report. A cluster of foreign sales for What Time Devours and On the Fifth Day (Spain and Russia) and one for Mask of Atreus (Serbia). It’s always thrilling and humbling to think of my books being read all over the world. Am currently polishing Mirror Shoppe ready for it go start …

Reviews: On the Fifth Day
“Not only is Hartley’s novel well paced, with enough twists and turns to keep most thriller fans satisfied, he avoids the missteps of most attempts to cash in on the Da Vinci Code zeitgeist by focusing on the faithful rather than freewheeling conspiracies; his is a welcome take that considers thoughtfully… issues of belief and …

It’s been a while since I added to this, but not for lack of news. I’ll do it in bits… FIFTH DAY seems to have done well. It’s still very much around, and a lot of stores are now carrying MASK again, whose sales also spiked after FIFTH came out. I’ve had lots of good …

Fifth Day is now well and truly OUT! It continues to be strange to me to see the book in central store displays and, perhaps odder still, in grocery stores and pharmacies. I still haven’t stumbled on someone reading it (or Mask, for that matter), something I think will push the strangeness still further. I’m …

Well, it’s been a long semester. My show (Doctor Faustus) opened and closed after a grueling four month rehearsal period which took all my attention. It was worth the work, but it WAS work. In the meantime, MASK continued to sell and I did a deal for an Indonesian edition. The Hebrew version recently came …

Happy New Year! I’ve been pretty lax up-dating this of late as the tail end of the semester got the better of me, but I hope to have more time this year in between various writing assignments and directing Dr. Faustus on the UNCC mainstage. The new book, officially titled ON THE FIFTH DAY has …
