Enjoyed this a lot. Very funny with some rather touching inter-planetary friendships.

Comedy writer Daniel Peak (Not Going Out, Code 404) has announced his second comic children's novel, Grimstink.
The tale of an alien invasion gone wrong, pre-order now: comedy.co.uk/people/daniel_p…
New series of Not Going Out starts this Friday at 9pm on BBC1. Co-written by @LeeMack and me, which is to say that I write the scripts and Lee writes his name in at the top
Chuffed and grateful that the very first response to #Grimstink is as generous as this
What a story! It's got it all: goodies, baddies, love, sibling jealousy, aliens, annihilation of Earth and friendship. There are twists and turns that have you guessing the whole way to the end and then there's the humour. It's laugh-out-loud funny in places. @iDanielPeak

Excited to see Sam and Zak out in the world today. My tenth book too! And many thanks to Lucy Mulligan for another great cover.
Tolstoy left it nine years between War and Peace and Anna Karenina. No such slouch, my second book is out in July, a mere four years after the first. Preorderable here: uk.bookshop.org/p/books/grim…
