---Word from Night Shade about their present doings:
We've just added a whole bunch of new forthcoming titles to the site, including new novels from Greg Egan and Walter Jon Williams, the new Detective Inspector Chen novel from Liz Williams, the fourth and fifth Clark Ashton Smith volumes, and a post-apocalyptic anthology called Wastelands that will include stories from Stephen King, Jonathan Lethem, George R.R. Martin, Orson Scott Card, Gene Wolfe, Nancy Kress, Octavia Butler, and a whole lot more. | | New releases
| And we've got three new titles for you this month, and all three rock, as usual.
Laird Barron's collection, The Imago Sequence, is finally here, and we couldn't be happier. This guy is a modern day horror god. The limited has a story not present in the trade, and unlikely to be reprinted anywhere else. Get some.
Richard Kadrey's new novel Butcher Bird is... well, think China Mieville meets Italo Calvino meets John Milton. With some quest fantasy thrown in. And tattoo artists. And a lost Orson Welles movie. It's weird, and unbelievably cool. Publishers Weekly thinks it will appeal to Buffy and Angel fans. Which sounds bizarre to me, but I'm a Buffy fan (less so with the Angel), and I love Butcher Bird, so maybe they're onto something. And last, but certainly not least, we've got some Walter Jon Williams goodness for you. We've just reissued his classic sf novel, Voice of the Whirlwind. A quasi-sequel set in the world of Hardwired, this is essential reading for anyone who loved Richard Morgan's Altered Carbon. Trust us on this one. | |
That's pretty much all we've got for you today, we're keeping it simple. Buy a lot of books, we need to make space. Oh, yeah, and there was that new clutch we had to put in the Night Shademobile.
We'll be down at SDCC next week, so hopefully we'll run into some of you there, although we don't have a booth, so we'll probably literally run into you.
