Announcing BURIED DEEP AND OTHER STORIES by Naomi Novik

January 7, 2026

We’re delighted to announce we’ll be publishing Buried Deep and Other Stories by Naomi Novik, her gorgeous collection, with a full-color dust jacket and duotone illustration for each story.

Buried Deep and Other Stories is already at the printer!

About the Book:

New York Times bestselling and award-winning author Naomi Novik is one of the most treasured storytellers working today. Known for spinning thrilling, emotional tales that take place in a vast array of worlds, her range and imagination are unparalleled. Buried Deep and Other Stories showcases the wide sweep of her work by bringing together thirteen pieces, ranging from short stories to novellas, many of which take place in her most beloved settings–and including a delicious sneak peek at the high fantasy home of her upcoming series.

Enter here, dear reader, and find dragons, and much, much more:

In “Araminta, or, The Wreck of the Amphidrake,” rebellious Lady Araminta is shipped off by her family in an fantastical version of Regency England, but when she dons a magic talisman after a pirate attack, the swashbuckling adventure truly gets underway…

“After Hours” is a standalone tale that takes place in the world of the Scholomance trilogy, wherein an Eastern European witch with a specialty for mushroom work has to deal with an especially terrible roommate… 

The acclaimed novel version of “Spinning Silver” began with this exquisite novella, in which Miryem takes over her father’s money-lending business and is approached with a treacherous bargain…

Meanwhile, “Dragons and Decorum” retells Pride and Prejudice, except this time Elizabeth Bennet is captain of a longwing dragon in the Temeraire universe…

Finally, in a closing novella appearing here for the first time, “The Long Way Round” gives readers a lush, compelling look at the world of Abandon, where Novik’s next fantasy series will be set. Brother and sister Tess and Aston sail and race over the high seas on ships of his design, usually avoiding the waters infested with monstrous kraken…

Each of this baker’s dozen of stories includes an introduction from Novik. Readers will want to keep Buried Deep in a special place on their shelf to revisit time and again.

Both editions will be:

  • Oversized, 7 x 10 trim size
  • Printed offset in two colors (black and Pantone®) on 70# archival quality paper in Opaque Bright White
  • Full-color dust jacket art by Alyssa Winans

  • Duotone art pieces for each story's title page, 13 illustrations in total
  • Smyth-sewn binding

Naomi suffers from issues which make signing large numbers of pages very difficult. As an accommodation, the limited edition will have a facsimile of Naomi's signature, printed in a metallic ink.
