Big Jim's Shadow, Awards, Giveaways & Other Jurassic News!
Sunday, June 08, 2014
All sorts of Jurassic London news lately. More details over on that particular neck of the Internet woods, but to round up:
Big Jim's Shadow is out now! Four stories set in Dublin, 1913. Featuring work from Archie Black, Martin McGrath, Damien Kelly and Stuart Suffel - plus a cover from Jennie Gyllblad. Really proud of this one. It isn't particularly SF/F-y (although it includes an alt-history twist that'll make a big difference to the shared world of Pandemonium), but the stories are great examples of how to pack a lot of power into a very small space. Free on Kobo, Goodreads, Spacewitch. Pennies on Amazon US and Amazon UK.
Sidewise Awards! Adam Roberts is up for "Tollund", his delightfully subversive tale from The Book of the Dead. (Find it here.)
British Fantasy Awards! Sophia McDougall is up for "Golden Apple", her deliciously haunting story from The Lowest Heaven! (Find it here.)
British Fantasy Awards! Again! Speculative Fiction 2012 is up for Best Non-Fiction! (Find that one here.)
British Fantasy Awards! Seriously! Joey Hi-Fi is up for Best Artist! Granted, Joey did spectacular work for so many publishers last year, but I've got a soft spot for his gorgeous retro starmap for The Lowest Heaven. (Very pretty.)
Giveaways! We've sent a stack of books - physical and virtual - to The Cultural Gutter to help with their annual Gutterthon. They're one of our favourite sites and we're proud to support them. Check it out!
Glaze! We only published the limited edition of Kim Curran's brilliant new novel, but if you missed out, there's now a paperback edition! (Find it here.)
New website! Well, template. The second one this year! But it was bugging the hell out of me, and it also needed to be responsive. And voila - now it is!
More! So many announcements! Starting this week, we'll be announcing or detailing a book each week - including a new novella, the details of Irregularity and the first peek at next year's big Jurassic anthology!
