Amber and Chris are due to turn in their dark fantasy short novel, The Seven Whistlers, later this month. In the meantime, they’ve graced us with a weird, chilling excerpt. Check it out.

We’ve just sent Charles de Lint’s early fantasy novel, Harp of the Grey Rose, to the printer. This one has taken far too long from conception to reality, for which we apologize. In just a few short weeks — four, if I have to hazard a guess — it’ll be in stock and shipping, and we’ll all have another of Charles’ gems to enjoy in hardcover.

We’re down to our last few dozen copies of Screaming Science Fiction, Brian Lumley’s blend of horror/sf tales, including one new novella, “Feasibility Study,” making its first appearance anywhere. If you need a nudge, in addition to full-page black-and-white illustrations by Bob Eggleton, consider the glowing reviews:

Given the overwhelming demand, we’ve decided to produce a second printing of Tim Powers’ chapbook, The Bible Repairman. Tim has graciously agreed to sign all 1000 copies of this printing, which will differ from the first printing in that it will not be housed in an envelope, and will be identified as a later printing on the copyright and signature pages.

Our webguy, Dominick, has just created a couple of brand new Desktops that are absolutely FREE. In addition to the new Caitlin R. Kiernan and Tim Powers downloads, you’ll find some for older titles by Joe R. Lansdale, Charles de Lint, and George R.R. Martin.

Kealan Patrick Burke’s new chapbook, The Quiet, is in stock and shipping. In this chapbook you’ll find the original short story and the screenplay for the movie, together with a brand new introduction by Kealan Patrick Burke detailing the story’s journey from page to screen. Tucked neatly at the back end of the chapbook is a selection of stills from the movie.

Caitlin R. Kiernan has just turned in the 3,000 word Dancy Flammarion vignette that will only be available with the $45 Limited Edition of her upcoming book, Alabaster. Fewer than 50 copies of the Limited Edition remain unreserved at this point. It will be sold out prior to publication this August.

Charles Stross’ novella of alternate Cold War paranoia, Missile Gap, has just drawn glowing notice over at Green Man Review. Check it out.

Also drawing praise (from Publishers Weekly and Green Man Review) is the Joe R. Lansdale-edited Retro Pulp Tales.

Next week, the excellent introduction to Thomas Ligotti’s work lands in our laps and begins shipping. The Shadow at the Bottom of the World is limited to only 400 numbered copies and 26 lettered copies, and is preselling quite well. We should have a decent supply of copies on hand, but given our history with Ligotti’s books, those will go quickly when word gets out.

Tim Powers has just turned in the tale we’ll be issuing as a small illustrated hardcover. It’s now called A Soul in a Bottle. Check out the excerpt and new description on the book’s page.
