Remember this?
Behold!
Clean Sweep is now a graphic novel and it will be coming to you in print and through Comixology on March 5th, 2024.
Preorder links: Amazon Kindle | Amazon Paperback | BN | Apple Books
I will have 3 copies of this graphic novel available at Coastal Magic Con. Ask me if you want one.
But wait, there is more.
Andrews McMeel Publishing is offering an awesome giveaway to win this cool sticker sheet (US residents only).
Wooo!
Sarah says
The video is a very appetizing TEASE! Love it!
mz says
“U. S. residents only”
Sigh.
(First??? That would be almost as good as a sticker)
mz says
Arghghgh! I typed someth8ng wrong and missed by a second.
MariaZ says
Congratulations.
Amazing that your stories are being translated into so many different formats.
House Andrews is so good to the BDH always feeding it fresh treats.
MariaZ says
Here boy, here boy, here’s a new treat. It’s a graphic novel. That’s a good Horde, you’re a good Horde.
Moderator R says
We *are* beloved and famously fluffy 😀
PaEla says
sigh..not in the U.S.
but will book 2 also become a graphic novel?
joined Tapas because of it 😄
Moderator R says
There’s no official news on that score, I’m afraid.
Rosa says
is there unofficial gossip?
btw Kate 5 is still unavailable in audible UK, checked for it yesterday because I have to wait for the graphic audio release.
Moderator R says
I am in the U.K. and have no problem seeing it on Audible 🙂 https://www.audible.co.uk/pd/1705294464?source_code=ASSORAP0511160006&share_location=pdp
Rosa says
I use audible uk from the Netherlands and magic slays is still giving this message:
We’re Sorry
Audible does not currently have the rights to sell this title in your country/region. Please consider another book
it’s only that one book, the rest is available
Moderator R says
It is available in the U.K. The issue is probably trying to buy from the EU- I suggest trying another country’s Amazon, like Germany or even Amazon.com
Krystine says
when will it be available in the US on Audible? I’ve been checking for a preorder of the Graphic Audio of Magic Slays, but still only shows the original read by Renée
Moderator R says
Release of GA Magic Slays is on 3rd of April 🙂
Sabrina says
Same 😂
Breann says
Loved the video! 🥰
Sarah says
My local bookshop is showing a pre order for vol 2 in october…is that a spoiler?
Moderator R says
I believe the run on Tapas is split between 2 volumes 🙂, this is the first half of Clean Sweep. (Not sure why Amazon has it as book 1 of 1, it’s book 1 of 2).
Kate says
I have friends and family who love graphic novel interpretations. Sadly, I’m addicted to the words. The pictures are all in my head where I like to keep them.
Words, words, words, many words, more words (as long as they are good ones, strung together well)…
Who says addiction is bad?
Irmel says
Addiction? Who’s addicted? Not me, no Sir! Is it Friday, yet? Issit? Issit? Issit now?
Kate says
😘 Are we there yet?
Tempest says
Addiction? No, we are providing a VITAL public service. We are aiding the economy, keeping wordsmiths employed.
Patricia Schlorke says
If this is an addiction, I don’t want to be cured. We keep HA and other writers in business with our addiction. 😊
Becky says
Horde: Is it Friday? Is the new shiny out yet? When does Maggie come out? Is it Friday yet?
Mod R: Quit whining or I will turn this blog around!
Moderator R says
🤣 I’m more the teen sibling that has to act grown-up and babysit.
And on Friday I’ll be left with the chapter to release while House Andrews are in Florida at the convention.
😎 *Risky Business sliding on the floor*
Tink says
So you’ll be releasing the new chapter at 12:01am Friday your time, right? It’s for release Friday, but they’ve never specified whose Friday, have they? Your 12:01am Friday is my 6:01pm Thursday, but I won’t tell on you, I promise! Mum’s the word.
Patricia Schlorke says
He he he!
Mod R has the power!
Tempest says
I pre-ordered from B&N when they were running the 25% off of pre-orders.
I read it on Tapas, but now I WILL POSSESS IT FOR MY OWN.
*insert maniacal laugh here*
I’d love to see more of the graphic novels, but at least Graphic Audio keeps adding books. I’m hoping the BDH proves lucrative enough for them that’ll do all the series.
Wendy says
I try not to buy dead tree books but i did have to purchase this one! So excited! and possibly winning stickers – bonus!
Emily says
I had never gotten into Tapas before Clean Sweep but I really loved it and would love to see more IA books developed this way.
I think the blog mentioned that the original champion for Innkeeper has left Tapas but would you consider moving it to a creator on webtoons if they don’t continue?
The one book turned comic I follow on webtoons has a really great illustrator, Ashoakmaple. I imagine you probably don’t have the time to adapt the script yourself though.
hope you have safe travels and get to have at least a mini vacation before or after the conference.
Heather says
And now I’m even more enthusiastic about Coastal Magic Con . . .
Anne says
Can stickers become an item available when the merch store is open?
Moderator R says
Stickers already exist in the merch store 🙂 https://houseandrewsmerch.com/collections/stickers-and-other
These *particular* stickers, no, because the art does not belong to House Andrews, but to the publishers.
Zephyr says
I just saw the “freaky shit testing device” addition to the stickers! How did I miss that one before??? I need that one in my life! ^-^
Judy Schultheis says
I pre-ordered from B&N the first time you told us it was available. I’ll get it when it arrives. I’m looking forward to it.
Patricia Schlorke says
Enjoy everyone! Good luck to those who enter the sticker drawing.
Day after tomorrow. Day after tomorrow. Day after tomorrow. (This is the Roman snippet chant.)
Kathryn Halloran says
Really hope I get a chance to buy this at the con!
Tess Benham says
I would love a graphic novel of Clean Sweep.
Looking forward to Coastal Magic, first time attending, and looking forward to meet you!
Bea says
Ordered 🙂 🙂
Mara says
This is so exciting!
But I hope they fix brutus’ tongue for the print version. Since he’s a chow chow it should be blue.
mdy says
This is an exciting update. I will for sure pick up the Kindle version. Fingers crossed an anime adaptation will not be too far away.
Unrelated housekeeping question for you, Mod-R: Is it just me, or did this post not get delivered via email? While I did receive an email, it only contained one post (the Coastal Con Meet and Greet ‘meet at the park’ update). It’s making me wonder if the daily email is delivering only the latest post rather than all new posts within the past 24 hours.
Moderator R says
Hmm, I see what you mean, I just got the email with the same. We can wait a bit and see if the other ones appears, if not I’ll ask about it next week when everyone is back 🙂.
I know with the old newsletter it sent summaries for both posts.
Joy Wilson says
I also never got this in email. I just happened to click the blog and saw this conversation.
mdy says
Mod-R, it looks like it has happened again with the next day’s email update?
The blog has two new posts (‘Sanctuary Ch 5 Pt 2’ and ‘Meet and Greet Hotel Patio’), but the email I received only contained the hotel patio post, which was the newest one.
Fingers crossed that fixing it just takes a simple settings change rather than some fancy coding.
Moderator R says
Yep, I’ve been looking for the same thing, I have it now confirmed. If there are two posts, instead of pushing a summary of both, the newsletter only sends the most recent.
I’ll have to wait until House Adrews are back next week, hopefully people know to check for the serial 🙂
Maria F says
same for me
Gardening says
Accidental discovered this blog-entry (no newsletter), pre-ordered -the print version, will arrive 21 March, yeah!
Mo says
WANT those Beast stickers! I never enter contests, but I will have to try!
Brightfae says
Congrats!!!!
Reenie says
Preordered!!
Jane says
Yay!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 Just preordered my on Amazon!!!
Billie says
Yay! pre-ordered the graphic novel today on Amazon…(it is $1 discounted price if you pre-order.) I can’t say thank you enough for your stories, your blog, your generosity to the BDH, etc. Someone should add a chapter to a self-help book: ‘New Coping Skill for hard days-read/re-read Alone Andrews!’ 😎
Joe Ellett says
Although I have this on Tapas, it’s worth buying again in order to be able to read it in one fell swoop on any and all of my devices without having to go through the immensely frustrating Tapas interface (and it sends HA a little more well-deserved money). Done in a hot second!
Yes, I know that HA publishes its Friday serials in an episodic format, but unlike the Byzantine Tapas experience, the serials are available on any device that supports a decent browser, and HA, most likely house seneschal Mod R, indexes them for us in a very convenient form. And we know that when the serial is done, it will shortly appear in traditional book/ebook format 🙂
Amelie says
I used to work for Comixology! So weird to see my old employer mentioned in a blog post here. Technically the company doesn’t exist anymore. They laid off most of the staff last year (I left the company in 2018 so was not affected) and the Comixology brand has been folded into Kindle Comics. The Comixology app is no more. It was sad to see that happen but the old CEO started a new comics related company.
I am not a big graphic novel person but I will have to buy Innkeeper!
Lizzie says
Gorgeous! I received mine today and it just beautiful! I will enjoy reading this and look forward to trying out this new medium. Thank you so much!
