I found this video on Vimeo. I just love it!

Don’t be surprised if a fortune telling robot turns up in the Dot Robot trilogy  b-)

The Dot Robot Roadshow starts SATURDAY 4TH APRIL, 12.30PM.  BLUE BOAR MARQUEE, CHRISTCHURCH COLLEGE OXFORD. I’m so excited to be at the Oxford Literary Festival for my first date. With just two days to go, if you want to come it’s best you turn up at the venue - but the Box Office number is 0870 343 1001 if you want to call. Dot Robot Roadshow isn’t your average book reading. I’m bringing a bunch of really cool robots including the model of Punk from my book. They’ll be a robot race and a chance to WIN one of two robots on the day!!! And of course, I’ll sign any copy of Dot Robot you like!

Other Dates include: 27th May - Hay Festival. 19th August - Edinburgh International Book Festival. 20th September - Bath Festival of Children’s Literature.

The reviews of my book Dot Robot are in and they’re beyond my wildest dreams! Here are a few:

‘Over-10s will love the hero-schoolboy and digital genius Jackson Farley… your little computing addict will love it.’ The Daily Mirror

‘The Gadget Show’s Jason Bradbury’s up-to-the-minute Dot.Robot looks like if might be perfect for the gamers.’ The Ultimate Book Guide

‘The heroes of Dot Robot play video games, tinker with mathematical puzzles and are approached by a mysterious agency to help assemble fighting machines’. The anonymity of the internet is an opportunity for a downtrodden young geek to compete equally with others and use his smarts to good advantage.’  SFX magazine.

‘It’s brilliant!’ Steve Wright BBC Radio 2.

‘This is my new holiday book!’ Matthew Wright, The Wright Stuff (Five TV)

‘Bradbury bolts his knowledge of cutting-edge gadgetry on to an action-packed and serviceably sinuous plot, resulting in high-calibre high-tech high-jinks.’ Financial Times 

‘This book is perfect for gadget loving kids - especially as all the technology in the book is currently ‘out’ there in the real world right now!’ Bookseller Review, Waterstones

 And just a few of the customer reviews online:

‘This book is frankly one of the best books I have ever read. This may be for younger boys but I’m 14 and absolutely loved it!’ ***** Amazon.co.uk

This is a cracking first book from super-geek Jason Bradbury. It was so gripping that I had to finish it all in one go and stayed up til 4am (on a school night too, tsk). *****Amazon.co.uk

‘I can’t wait for next February when the next instalment is released and will definitely be passing this on to friends.’ ***** Amazon.co.uk

‘A hard book to put down, full of adventure with plenty of twists and turns. Its an easy uncomplicated read that takes a grip of you as soon as you start to read the first chapter.’ ***** Waterstones.com

‘A superb read. A brilliant book that I couldn’t put down! Aimed at kids but I enjoyed it and I’m 42!’ ***** Play.com
