Here’s a bit of Poppy’s latest, to whet your appetite for its release later this year.

We’ve just announced a special Tim Powers project that will be out later this year, a small format illustrated tale, The Properties of Rooftop Air. This heavily illustrated volume will be available both as a trade hardcover edition and signed limited edition, bound in leather, with a different dust jacket than the trade. Head over to the book’s page for a fuller description and ordering info.

“He’s really a very nice boy,” the father said, shifting in his chair, adding, “when he’s asleep.”

The man behind the desk laughed. “Yes, we have a lot of them here on the island.”

The boy, uncomfortable in short pants, white shirt, black tie and sporty little jacket, squeaked his dress shoes on the floor when he moved, said, “Sorry.”

“It’s just his mother and I, well, we don’t have a lot of time to ourselves, and he causes…trouble.”

“I understand. We all understand here.”

Readers know Rick Kleffel’s Trashotron as one of the places for first looks at forthcoming books, large press and small. He just weighed in on our upcoming Pearls From Peoria (Philip Jose Farmer):

As usual, Subterranean Press is offering an outstanding value for your hard-earned money. I mentioned the page count only once, let me remind you again: 778 pages, $45. Illustrated, beautifully bound and printed. Even or perhaps especially if you’ve never read Farmer this is in the realm of Deal-of-a-Lifetime. This is what the so-called small press is here for and Subterranean Press is offering readers the kind of unique, flawlessly-conceived and executed BOOK that single-handedly justifies a bigger bed stand.

Here’s just a wee bit of glowing praise for William Browning Spencer’s The Ocean and All of Its Devices, via Booklist:

Spencer’s second story collection, after The Return of Count Electric and Other Stories (1993), is a slim but extraordinary volume of strange and haunting tales beautifully told. The title story, which has a certain Lovecraftian atmosphere, concerns the puzzle of an enigmatic family’s annual off-season visit to a seaside resort… Spencer’s stories are scintillating creations, disturbing and beautiful, and his introduction about the perils of being a short story writer is an illuminating diversion, too.

We’re proud to announce a new addition to the Subterranean Press Signature Series of Deluxe Limited Editions. Necroscope is one of the most popular vampire novels of the past twenty years, spawning more than a dozen sequels, and establishing Brian Lumley as a master of edge of your seat, fast-paced horror.

We’ve commissioned none other than Bob Eggleton to illustrate the definitive edition of Necroscope.
