Well, this is exciting!

Not only can I tell you that H.I.V.E. 9: Bloodline is finally being published on Thursday 6th May (UK release) – and so will be available to order from all good bookshops and e-tailers very very soon, but I can also reveal the fantastic cover created by awesome artist Jason Cook.

Looks suitably exciting, doesn’t it? What do you mean you want to know what’s happening? Well, I can’t tell you that. You’re just going to have to read the book to find out!
