Hey all,---Listed most of the books with ISBNs picked up at book sale on Sunday on half.com. It wasn’t my intention to put them right up for sale, but it is such an easy process I thought I might just go ahead. Some of them I picked up because they seemed like good deals, but mostly it was because they were books I would like to read myself. I will honor these prices for direct sales as well as through half. Their covershots will be showing up in the 3-26 and 3-27-06 folders on Covershots 7 CD-R (or DVD-R “gigalog”).
Got a bunch of news for you today, so let us begin!
We've just announced some of our fall titles. Among others, we have:
Zima Blue and Other Stories. A collection by Alastair Reynolds, with an introduction by Paul McCauley. Includes an original story. The limited edition will be signed by Reynolds, with a bonus story, "Digital to Analogue".
Trial of Flowers, a fantasy novel from Jay Lake. Firmly in the vein of Perdido Street Station, The Etched City, and City of Saints and Madmen.
We're also doing a reprint of Walter Jon Williams' wonderful novel, Hardwired. Williams does his cyberpunk riff on Zelazny's Damnation Alley.
Originally published in 1990, Sung in Blood is an impossible (and impossbily expensive) to find novel from Glen Cook. A high fantasy version of Fu Manchu meets Doc Savage. Limited edition details to follow.
We're also rereleasing Kage Baker's excellent collection, Mother Aegypt, in trade paperback this October.
There's a couple other projects pending, and we'll be announcing those shortly.
In other news, we've had a few new releases lately. We've shipped out all the preorders on The Complete Hammer's Slammers vol. 1 a few weeks back, and the limited is almost sold out.
En route from the printer are the trade paperbacks of Charles Saunders' African heroic fantasy novel, Imaro, as well as M. John Harrison's seminal weird novel, The Course of the Heart. We should have them in-hand shortly, and we'll have preorders sent out shortly.
A quick status on other titles:
Maul, by Tricia Sullivan and Snake Moon, by Ray Manzarek are at the printer now. Lurker in the Lobby, our forthcoming guide to Lovecraftian cinema, should be at the printer this week.
We're making very good progress on the first Clark Ashton Smith volume, and will be posting the table of contents shortly.
Perdido Street Station is still pending the receipt of China's artwork, but we're hoping to have it soon.
That's about it for now, so until next month,
Jason Williams
