Yes indeed, today is officially the publication day of Joshua Files #3, ZERO MOMENT.
To celebrate, I’m holding My Big Fat Zero Moment Contest for Joshua fans over at themgharris.com.
How well do you know The Joshua Files? One reader will win the exclusive prize of Joshua Files books and goodies like enamel badges, neon wristbands, a drawstring gym bag and a Joshua T-shirt.
Closing date for entries is March 1st 2010. Go here for contest details.
For the first time so far, the neon-sleeved edition is only available for a short time, a limited run. It’s probably because of this that those retailers that managed to get hold of the limited run have gone out early with ZERO MOMENT. At the time of writing you can still buy this version at Waterstones, Tesco, Sainsbury’s and Amazon.co.uk
But fear not if you don’t get hold of one, because the new neon paperback editions are also very snazzy.
And as shown in the video above, in between sessions of signing all 4700 copies of the limited run, I actually got to watch the first printing of the neon green paperback of ZERO MOMENT!

Well i got my copy of Zero Moment two days ago. I only managed to start it yesterday due to trying to finish The Lovely Bones, but great start.
I love how you manage to convey Josh’s emotions so easily and how it all flows into the story. Back to reading..
I got mine before Feb. finished it today, it ROCKS, keep going MG
Well, my fav. parts were Josh and Ty in the villa putting peps to sleep(lol) and using capoeira to defeat Gaspar, Josh going back in time and saving Ixchel, and Josh and Ixchel jumping off the mountain into the muwan.
Hey MG, I got one more question, maybe you could send it on e-mail if you want it secret, Is Josh Arcadio who lost his name and family while travelling in time…?
Thank you Lukas and Ian!
Lukas – glad to see you are now reading books for adults too! But don’t give up on YA yet…there’s still lots of goodness there!
Ian well, a boy at the launch party asked me the same question…you can listen to my answer on the podcast here: at around 21 mins

hello!!! I’m a French student but sorry my English is quite bad… I’m a great fan of “Joshua Files” and I would like to know when could I buy it in France????
I look foward to read the next book!!!!
Thank you very much
Merci Beaumier Marie!
The good news is that Edition Milan, Joshua’s French publisher, were the first to sign up for the translation rights for ZERO MOMENT. My GUESS is that it will be out in October 2010, on the same schedule as the first two books in French.
thank you very much!!!
Can you tell me when Zero Moment will come out in German, pls
P.S.: I really call Joshua 😀
Hi Josh! ZERO MOMENT in German…? I don’t know. Where’s Frank? Oh Fraaank?!
Fraaaank? What’s that?
Frank Boehmert, the German writer and translator of Joshua Files. See http://frankboehmert.blogspot.com/
Frank is the guy to ask!
Sad to say, poor old Frank doesn’t know nothing … Dressler are the guys to ask. Aber die kannst du immerhin auf Deutsch fragen, Joshua 🙂
Genau, ich kann ein bischen Deutsch verstehen, wenn du ein kleine frag hast.
Hello! I am Sophia Billington age 12.I got Zero Moment this morning, and finished it just now! It’s very interesting and the emotions are conveyed extremely well! However, I’m having alot of difficulty coming up with a theory as to who Arcadio is! Post your theories please? thanks!
Thanks Sophie!
Why not join in the ‘who is arcadio’ thread on official Joshua Files fansite?

I read the first and the second book in my last holiday and the adventure of Josh Garcia fascinated me! Wow!
Congratulations!!! 🙂
But I’m really sad that Zero Moment will not release in German…
So I’ll try to read it in English!
Thanks Timo…and hopefully ZERO MOMENT will eventually appear in German – we’re just not sure yet when!
Yeah, okay.
Than I can hope! 🙂
And if my English sometimes begins to crumble, please excuse it! 😀
I still go to school…
