Just in time for Christmas, here it is: The Wire Re-up: The Guardian Guide to the Greatest TV Show Ever Made. After years of blogging, months of editing and weeks trying to choose a name, our book (and I really mean "our") is now available for pre-ordering. It will be in the shops later this month.
Thank you to all of you who suggested possible names for the book on this blog a few weeks ago. We seriously considered the following: All in the Game, Decoding The Wire, This America, Man, and Way Down in the Hole. But, as some of you pointed out on the blog (the publisher agreed), we have a brand all of our own with The Wire Re-up.
And thank you to all readers/commenters for making this blog such an interesting place to spend time. Hopefully you will love the book; you have contributed so much to it. Alongside our episode discussions the book also includes interviews, features and a quiz. About half of the content is the words written by you readers.
You can order The Wire Re-up: The Guardian Guide to the Greatest TV Show Ever Made at Guardian Books now, and it will be available in the shops shortly. We hope it will make a great Christmas present for Wire-loving family and friends. (If you really want to treat them you could also buy them Truth Be Told, the new version of the official Wire book just released in the UK.)
The weekly blog, of course, continues.
