The Auctioneer
by Joan Samson
introduction by Ed Gorman

A new edition of this classic, long out of print forgotten
masterpiece, with a new introduction by Ed Gorman and cover
art by John Bonath.

Harrowing tensions explode in a series of events that could
happen anywhere, to anyone, just as they do to John Moore --
whose days of freedom run out, who is stripped of his
possessions, his courage, and his hopes, by the ominous
presence of a stranger impossible to resist.

Published to wide acclaim in 1975, The Auctioneer is a
minor classic of American literature, now almost completely
forgotten. The story of John Moore, his wife Mim, and his
mother, is a gripping tale of greed in a small town, which
is quietly overrun by auctioneer Bob Gore. Acclaimed by
Stephen King and Robert R. McCammon and an influence on
King¹s own Needful Things, The Auctioneer is here reprinted
for the first time in 30 years.

³A well-made piece of dynamite...For all their talk, the
author seems to be saying, men will permit their souls to
be carried away bit by bit and auctioned off to the highest
bidder. Samson has written a suspenseful, engrossing novel
with the most gripping and violent ending we¹ve encountered
in some time.² ‹ Newsday

Hardcover, signed by Ed Gorman, 300 copies, $60.

Check them out! The several I have managed to get listened to now, of the twenty-five already here, have all been hugely enjoyable. It is nice to get a lengthy overview of some mighty significant artists -- and a few obscurer ones -- many of whom I had never really heard at all. I may even want to get some of the Properboxes for artists I thought were already well-represented in my collection (Monk, Holiday, Bud Powell, etc.) I went ahead and ordered this batch now because they were down to only two remaining of the Sidney Bechet set, and one I had in my order (Young Tony Bennett) sold out while I was compiling it. A lot of this stuff I never would have thought I would want this much of, but at such bargain prices I figure I can check them out even from mere curiosity. Or maybe it is that I am getting old and wallowing in the past.

---Also these Sarx classical CDs are headed this way now too (also 30% discount, or $4.19 each):

British writer Montague Rhodes James (1862-1936) is the most

influential author of ghost stories in literary history, but his work

has not received the attention it deserves. Warnings to the Curious,

the first volume on James to be devoted entirely to his ghostly

fiction, features a wealth of material old and new about the

scholarly author and his supernatural writing. Please visit our

LAIR OF THE DREAMER: A Cthulhu Mythos Omnibus

By Franklyn Searight

With an Introduction by Robert M. Price, and Illustrations by Robert H. Knox

ISBN-13: 978-0-9793806-0-0

July 2007: 306 pp: $20.00

Frank Searight is the son of Richard F. Searight, Weird Tales author

and correspondent of H. P. Lovecraft. The elder Searight invented the

evocative Eltdown Shards for use in stories like his “The Sealed

Casket” and “The Warder of Knowledge.” Lovecraft borrowed the book

title and employed it in his own stories. And though the elder Searight made no great

effort to carry on the Mythos tradition of Lovecraft, the younger

Searight does. Many enthusiasts of the Cthulhu Mythos have been

delighted to discover a story of Frank’s included in a magazine or an

anthology here and there since the mid-seventies. Thus it is a great

treat and a privilege for us to be able to draw all his Innsmouth

Stories together, along with an unpublished Mythos novel, LAIR OPF

THE DREAMER, for a long-overdue single-author collection. Also

included here is their father-son posthumous collaboration, “The

Mists of Death.”

W. PAUL COOK: The Wandering Life of a Yankee Printer (With Selected

Writings)

Edited By Sean Donnelly

ISBN-13: 978-0-9771734-6-4

August 2007: pp: $15.00

W. Paul Cook is remembered most often as a friend of H. P. Lovecraft;

and so he has lingered posthumously in the shadow of his famous

friend. He labored with love for half a century as a printer,

publisher, editor, and author; the pleasure of the work itself was

often the only reward for his labors. The purpose of this book is to

place Cook in his own light; to illuminate his own talents as a

writer of fiction, essays, and poetry; as a publisher and printer;

and as a sincere exponent of amateur journalism. We will re-open the

door, as best we can, to understand and appreciate the life of a

modest man who styled himself an ordinary printer, but whom friends

called “the Colossus of the North” and a “sterling patron of weird

literature.”

necro again

Just as I was thinking to delete the last posting from Necro Publications (due to lack of interest from my particular clientele, and frankly, myself as well), along comes another. I'm sure I won't order this unless someone comes along and indicates they want me to get it, but here it is for the heck of it:

[Trade Paperback] Unlimited Trade Paperback Signed ISBN: 1-889186-73-2 $16.95 [Hardcover] 52 copies. Signed & numbered $35.00

GYPSIES STOLE MY TEQUILA By ADRIENNE JONES "Adrienne Jones is my pick for “young writer most likely to make it big.” She consistently tells good stories in well crafted ways. Gypsies Stole My Tequila is one of her best. It’s perfectly crafted, wryly funny, and bang-on relevant. If you don’t already know Adrienne’s work, this is a great place to start. If you have read her before, curl up, settle back and experience the pleasure yet again.” —Gary K. Wolf Creator of Roger Rabbit Adrienne Jones is wonderful new voice in humorous speculative fiction. This time out the author of the critically acclaimed The Hoax, offers up a often hilarious, yet always poignant look at coming to terms with growing older. Under Jones’ masterful storytelling, Joe Blood jumps off the page as he struggles against the demons of his own past, while confronting the stubbornness and arrogance of youth in the form of an unfocused, wanna-be rock band. Oh yeah, plus some punk gypsies and meat market full of animal costumed employees. This is a story that simply comes more and more to life with each turn of the page. Like most people on the cusp of turning 40, former punk rock star Joe Blood is wrestling with the demons of his past. Unfortunately, one of them is living in his wall. Determined to hold him to a suicide pact made twenty years before, Joe's Time Demon starts the countdown on the last weeks of his life, calling for death on his 40th birthday. Washed up and defeated, the downtrodden has-been is willing to accept this fate. Until a final test presents itself, challenging Joe Blood to save his own life by becoming the one thing he despises…himself. “Adrienne Jones captures the magic of the up and coming, along with the down and out to beautifully blend them into one man's search for meaning. A captivating struggle of rock ‘n` roll, insanity and the hazards of drugs all in one, follow Joe Blood as he finds his way out of thirty something. Dare WE rock on?” —Dan Mullins, My Dying Bride “Adrienne Jones is as pointed as the devil's pitchfork, and Gypsies Stole My Tequila proves that the heart of rock and roll is still bleeding. One of the funniest writers alive.” —Scott Nicholson, author of They Hunger

PRE-ORDER NOW!!! COMING IN NOVEMBER!

[Trade Paperback] Unlimited Trade Paperback Signed ISBN: 1-889186-72-4 $19.95 [Hardcover] 52 copies. Signed & numbered BONUS MATERIAL: Max's brand new origin story. $50.00

ROAD FROM HELL By GERARD HOUARNER Max the Assassin is back! What started in the pages of Painfreak, continued in the books The Beast That Was Max and Road To Hell now comes to an explosive conclusion. Offered in a VERY limited edition hardcover which contains bonus material including an all new short story with introduction showing us just where Max came from and how he got started on his cursed and tragic journey through a life of murder and sex. Also offfered in an affordable unlimited trade paperback signed by the author. “A non-stop rampage of exquisite horror. Houarner sets off a powder keg of awl-sharp imagery, occult intellect, and bad-to-the-bone super- naturalism to further evolve one of the most terrifying character-lines the genre has seen. An irresistible thriller, horror, and fantasy novel wrapped up as one, by an author who writes like Thomas Pynchon possessed by demons. —Edward Lee, author of House Infernal and Flesh Gothic Max the Assassin is in Hell. Tormented by vengeful spirits and his secret self, the demonic Beast, Max suffers for the pain he caused when he lived, and for losing his chance at redemption through love. Angel, Max's son, is devastated by his father's death and wanders the desert between the worlds in which he saw his father die, searching for a way home. Then he encounters the Caravan of the Dead, who promise him salvation, and Apocalypse. Both their fates depend on Eartha, a young woman from Brooklyn, her circle of outsider friends, the soul of her dead father, a sex club called Painfreak, the Palace of the Djinn, and the ancient spirit of an Egyptian sacrificial cat. Can Hell be broken? Can the dead return to life? Can love conquer pain, vengeance, and death? The answers are on The Road From Hell… “A fascinating and thought- provoking dark fantasy that displays Gerard Houarner’s top of the line literary craftsmanship, Road From Hell is the perfect finale to the Max trilogy. Steeped in mythology and the bizarre wonders of the supernatural, the novel crosses genre borders as Max battles ghosts and demons from the very pit of oblivion. Houarner’s prose is tight, the imagery shocking, and the scenes haunting and diabolically terrifying.” —Tom Piccirilli, author of The Midnight Road and The Dead Letters

---Anyone wanting any of these from me the second price is the Daedalus price. Mine would be a 25% discount from that (maybe 30% depending on what shipping costs). The first price is the original retail (N/A implies import). Before that is the Daedalus stock number if you want to go to their site for more info. Their prices at their retail site may vary from the above, but I think with the discount I give I would still have the lower price. Anything else at their site you might see that you might want, let me know, because I'm sure I wouldn't have any trouble coming up with another order to send them. I only stopped with the above because I had reached a decent total, if decent is the word.

---Word from Ash-Tree:
Please find attached details of the forthcoming first volume in a series of three that will collect all the known short fiction of Henry S. Whitehead. I'm sure we don't need to tell you that this is likely to prove popular.

We also want to let you know that at the beginning of December we shall have available the new collection by the increasingly popular British author, Reggie Oliver. Titled Masques of Satan: Twelve Tales and a Novella, this is a dynamic follow up to his previous volumes The Dreams of Cardinal Vittorini and The Complete Symphonies of Adolph Hitler. Neither of those collections had extensive distribution, but those who managed to obtain them have nothing but praise for Oliver's work, and, as a result of word getting around, reservations for this new collection are already piling up. Please make sure that you have enough on hand to meet the inevitable demand.

As always, thank you for your continuing support. Please let us know if you have any problems reading the attached file.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Earthling Publications Newsletter 10/2/07 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

THE HAUNTED FOREST TOUR IS PUBLISHED ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The third novel in Earthling's popular Halloween Series, THE HAUNTED FOREST TOUR is published! Copies arrived last night and after numbering them and figuring out who gets which copy, I'll begin sending them out later this week and should have them all shipped by the end of next week. PUBLISHERS WEEKLY called TOUR "an extreme horror extravaganza that unfolds like an exhibit at the supernatural theme park in which it's set." An upcoming GOREZONE review will state: "...over two hundred pages of non stop, in your face, gore drenched action...you will be exhausted by the time you reach the satisfying last page...Think Jurassic Park with bloodthirsty demons on an adrenaline rush and you have THE HAUNTED FOREST TOUR." And HORROR WORLD said this: "For the third volume of Earthling's Halloween Series, Strand and Moore unleash this frightening and high-octane tale. So grab your favorite blanket, pour a cup of that warm cider, make sure the candle is lit in the Jack-O-Lantern, and settle in with the perfect novel for a cool autumn night." Link to The Haunted Forest Tour THE ROLLING DARKNESS REVUE 2007 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peter Atkins, Glen Hirshberg, and Dennis Etchison return for a fourth year of storytelling with ROLLING DARKNESS REVUE 2007. This year's perfectbound softcover book is extra special: in addition to stories by the above writers, there is the framing script/story in four parts (for their live performances) as well as interior illustrations!
