Robert V. S. Redick MASTER ASSASSINS The Fire Sacraments, Book One

Two village boys mistaken for assassins become the decisive figures in the battle for a continent in a thrilling new desert-based epic by the author of The Red Wolf Conspiracy.

Kandri Hinjuman was never meant to be a soldier. His brother Mektu was never meant for this world. Rivals since childhood, they are drafted into a horrific war led by a madwoman-Prophet, and sur- vive each day only by hiding their disbelief. Kandri is good at blend- ing in, but Mektu is hopeless: impulsive, erratic, and certain that a is stalking him. Is this madness or a second sense? Either way, Kandri knows that Mektu’s antics will land them both in early .

But all bets are off when the brothers’ simmering feud explodes into violence, and holy blood is spilled. Kandri and Mektu are taken for contract killers and must flee for their lives to the one place where they can hope to disappear: the sprawling desert known as the Land That Eats Men. In this eerie wilderness, the terrain is as deadly as the , ghouls, and traffickers in human flesh. Here the brothers find strange allies: an aging warlord, a desert nomad searching for her family, and a lethal child-soldier still in her teens. They also find themselves in possession of a secret that could bring peace to the con- tinent of Urrath.

Douglas Lain BASH BASH REVOLUTION

A compelling coming-of-age post-singularity from Philip K. Dick Award–nominated author Douglas Lain.

Seventeen-year-old Matthew Munson’s a high school dropout, still living at home with his mom, doing little with his time but playing an outdated called Bash Bash Revolution and hanging around the local Dairy Queen. That is, until his dad turns up.

Jeffrey Munson is a computer geek who’d left home eight years earlier to work on a top-secret military project. As a father, Jeff’s been a spo- radic presence in Matthew’s life. Now, much to his son’s displeasure, he’s back, and insists on bonding over video games. The two begin entering local tournaments together, where Jeff quickly shows surpris- ing aptitude for Bash Bash Revolution in particular.

Then, as abruptly as he appeared, Jeff disappears again, just as Matthew was beginning to let him back into his life.

A police investigation threatens to unleash a city’s secret history of evil in the gritty sequel to Firewalk, from the New York Times bestselling author and cocreator of the –turned–hit TV show iZombie.

After reopening a long closed murder investigation, FBI agent Izzie Lefevre and police detective Patrick Tevake have uncovered a bizarre connection between a dangerous new drug on the streets of Recon- dito, California, and a series of mass murders and serial killings car- ried out around the coastal city going back at least one hundred years.

Neal Asher THE SOLDIER Rise of the Jain, Book One

Humanity, artificial intelligences, and monstrous aliens clash over control of deadly technology in this explosive beginning to Neal Asher’s newest Polity series.

In a far corner of space, on the very borders between humanity’s Polity worlds and the kingdom of the vicious crab-like prador, is an immedi- ate threat to all sentient life: an accretion disc, a solar system designed by the long-dead Jain race and swarming with living technology power- ful enough to destroy entire civilizations.

Neither the Polity nor the prador want the other in full control of the disc, so they’ve placed an impartial third party in charge of the weap- ons platform guarding the technology from escaping into the galaxy: Orlandine, a part-human, part-AI haiman. She’s assisted by , a mysterious, spaceship-sized alien entity who has long been suspicious of Jain technology and who suspects the disc is a trap lying-in-wait.

Meanwhile, the android Angel is planning an attack on the Polity, and is searching for a terrible weapon to carry out his plans—a Jain super-soldier. But what exactly the super-soldier is, and what it could be used for if it fell into the wrong hands, will bring Angel’s and Orlandine’s missions to a head in a way that could forever change the • National publicity campaign balance of power in the Polity universe. • Print reviews and feature attention In The Soldier, British science fiction writer Neal Asher kicks off an- • Online publicity and marketing campaign other Polity-based trilogy in signature fashion, concocting a mind- • Targeted blog outreach to SF/F/H melting plot filled with far-future technology, lethal weaponry, and audiences bizarre alien creations. • Goodreads.com campaign including galley giveaways Neal Asher is a science fiction writer whose work has been nominat- • Advance Reading Copies available ed for both the Philip K.

Jodi Taylor AN ARGUMENTATION OF HISTORIANS The Chronicles of St. Mary’s Book Nine

The ninth book in the bestselling British madcap time-travelling series, served with a dash of wit that seems to be everyone’s cup of tea.

Behind the seemingly innocuous facade of St. Mary’s Institute of His- torical Research, a different kind of academic work is taking place. Just don’t call it “”—these historians “investigate major historical events in contemporary time.” And they aren’t your harm- less eccentrics either; a more accurate description, as they ricochet around history, might be unintentional disaster-magnets.

From Tudor England to the burning city of Persepolis, from a me- dieval St. Mary’s under siege to Victorian Rushford and a very nasty case of gaol fever, Max is struggling to keep her private life intact. There’s an ambitious programme hindered by teapots, plus Mrs. Midgely’s objection to dead hamsters in her airing cupboard, and Mr. Markham’s stubborn refusal to reveal his exact marital status.

And as if that’s not enough—the unfortunately not leprosy-laden Malcolm Halcombe is back. Admittedly, none of this is the most se- cure platform from which to launch an initiative to bring down the renegade Clive Ronan, but hey—what’s the worst that could happen?

Logan J. Hunder ASTRO-NUTS

Laser-sharp zingers and out-of-this-world puns pile up at an astronomical pace in this zero gravitas sci-fi spoof from the author of Witches Be Crazy.

Never meddle with unidentified spying objects . . .

The year is: The Future. Mars and Earth are like that divorced couple who don’t exactly like each other but have at least stopped fighting in public. Floating somewhere in between them, amid all the gar- bage and ’s ashes, a transport vessel called the SS Jefferson is homeward bound. Its crew might have even made it on time for once, too . . .

Captain Cox is no stranger to encountering the odd pickle in space, but when a tantalizingly derelict ship crosses paths with the Jefferson, he unwittingly parks in the middle of a NASA-ty inter- planetary squabble. Faced with a marauding and a squad of snobby secret agents, Cox and crew embark on a mad scramble across the solar system, to save themselves from either murder-via-space rifle or imprisonment in the notorious Guantanamo Docking Bay. Maybe they’ll also get around to dealing with the biological weapon that ac- cidentally wound up in their fridge, too.

Available for the first time in trade paperback, the third of five volumes collecting the complete fiction of William Hope Hodgson, an influential early twentieth-century author of science fiction, horror, and the fantastic.

William Hope Hodgson was, like his contemporaries Algernon Blackwood and Arthur Machen, one of the most important, prolific, and influential fantasists of the early twentieth century. His dark and unsettling short stories and novels were shaped in large part by per- sonal experience (a professional merchant mariner for much of his life, many of Hodgson’s tales are set at sea), and his work evokes a disturb- ing sense of the amorphous and horrific unknown.

While his nautical was very popular during his life- time, the supernatural and cosmic horror he is most remembered for only became well known after his death, mainly due to the efforts of writers like H. P. Lovecraft and Clark Ashton Smith, who often praised his work and cited it as an influence on their own. By the latter half of the twentieth century, it was only his that remained in print, and his vast catalog of non-supernatural stories was extremely hard to find.

Night Shade Books’ five-volume series presents all of Hodgson’s • Print reviews and feature attention unique and timeless fiction.

Greg Keyes THE REIGN OF THE DEPARTED The High and Faraway, Book One

A young man looking for death finds purpose in a world beyond our own in this sweeping fantasy from Greg Keyes (The Briar King, Newton’s Cannon).

Errol Greyson hadn’t intended to commit suicide. Or so he told him- self. But waking up after his “cry for help” in the body of a wood-and- metal construct magically animated by Aster—the strange girl from school—was not a result he could have imagined.

Aster’s wild explanations of a to find the water of health that would cure her father seemed as unreal as her description of Errol’s own half-dead existence, his consciousness stuck in an enchanted au- tomaton while his real body was in a coma from which it might never wake. And of course, they would need to recruit a girl—a virgin, no less—who had been dead for thirty years, to lead them through some- thing called the Pale, beyond which a bunch of magical kingdoms existed. Plus, the threat that Aster could turn him off like a light switch, sending him into a hellish oblivion, was a convincing incentive to cooperate.

It all seemed quite mad: either Aster was nuts or Errol was hallucinat- ing.

Greg Egan DICHRONAUTS

Hugo Award–winning master returns with a new novel featuring one of science fiction’s most unusual worlds.

Seth is a surveyor, along with his friend Theo, a leech-like creature running through his skull who tells Seth what lies to his left and right. Theo, in turn, relies on Seth for mobility, and for ordinary vision looking forwards and backwards. Like everyone else in their world, they are symbionts, depending on each other to survive.

In the universe containing Seth’s world, light cannot travel in all di- rections: there is a “dark cone” to the north and south. Seth can only face to the east (or the west, if he tips his head backwards). If he starts to turn to the north or south, his body stretches out across the land- scape, and to rotate as far as north-north-east is every bit as impossible as accelerating to the speed of light.

Every living thing in Seth’s world is in a state of perpetual migration as they follow the sun’s shifting orbit and the narrow habitable zone it creates. Cities are being constantly disassembled at one edge and rebuilt at the other, with surveyors mapping safe routes ahead.

But when Seth and Theo join an expedition to the edge of the habit- able zone, they discover a terrifying threat: a fissure in the surface of • Print reviews and feature attention the world, so deep and wide that no one can perceive its limits.

Real, raw, and funny, small-town cops, hard- drinking locals, and a family of make for an uneasy coexistence in this pulpy supernatural thriller set in a sleepy Nebraska town.

Cherry, Nebraska, population 312, is just off the highway between the sticks and the boonies. It’s where Dave Rhodes and his friends have lived all their lives. They own businesses, raise families, pay taxes, deal with odd neighbors, and, once or twice a month—just like their fathers before them—transform into wolves.

It’s not a bad life, but when one of the group members goes astray, it sets in motion a series of events that will threaten to destroy the deli- cate balance that has kept Dave and his clan off the radar. Between a son getting ready for his first transformation—called The Scratch—a wife with sordid secrets, a new sheriff who knows nothing of the crea- tures in his midst, and a mysterious man in a bow tie with a shady agenda, the middle of nowhere is about to get very dangerous.

Betsy Dornbusch THE SILVER SCAR A Novel

Two men with a bond forged by magic and destroyed by violence must build a new alliance to stop a holy crusade in this post-apocalyptic fantasy.

When Trinidad was twelve, his Wiccan parents blew themselves up in an ecoterror attack that killed several Christians. Orphaned and disillusioned, he fled his home and his best friend Castile to become a soldier for the powerful Christian church operating inside the fortress city of Boulder, Colorado. Raised by a priest and trained by a godless warrior, Trinidad learned the brutal art of balancing faith and war. He is the perfect archwarden, disciplined and devout.

But when the church’s bishop arrives with a silver scar she claims is proof of angelic orders to crusade, Trinidad alone knows her story is a lie. The silver scar comes from a mystical, ancient graveyard called the Barren—a place of healing reached only by Wiccan magic, a place that could turn Christianity on its head.

Accusing her outright would be treason. Searching for proof would mean committing heresy. Either is a death sentence for an archwar- den. Instead, torn between the lure of powerful magic, his love for Castile, and his vows to defend the Church, Trinidad must turn to the • Print reviews and feature attention very people he’d left in his past to stop the crusade.

The Dread Empire spans a continent: from the highest peaks of the Dragon’s Teeth to the endless desert lands of Hammad al Nakir; from besieged Kavelin to mighty Shinshan . . .

The time of the wrath of kings is close at hand. Bragi Ragnarson, now the king of Kavelin, has decided to join forces with Chatelain Mist, the exiled princess of Shinshan looking to usurp her throne.

Paul Tassi HEROKILLER A Novel

Ready Player One meets Gladiator in this high- octane thriller that mixes fight-to-the-death combat and black-ops espionage.

In the near future, the line between entertainment and brutality has blurred. Mysterious billionaire and entertainment magnate Gideon Gellar is a household name from his questionably legal televised spec- tacles where death-row inmates fight to the death. But his old shows pale in comparison to the recently announced and eagerly anticipated global event, The Crucible. A gladiatorial tournament open to the general public to enter, the show’s winner is promised unimaginable wealth and fame if they’re able to survive a series of globally broadcast, fight-to-the-death cage matches.

Former black-ops operative Mark Wei wants nothing more than to be left alone with his drink after sacrificing everything—including his family—in America’s covert war against China, a war won largely because of Mark. But there are rumors that Gideon’s background and business dealings involve shady connections to foreign powers, and soon Mark is reluctantly convinced to dust off his training and enter the tournament as an undercover agent.

As rock stars die of excess and revolution fills the air, newly minted private investigator James Brimstone is spending his days wandering the streets of Los Angeles, looking for low-rent cases as far as possible from his last work-for-hire, an unfortunate run-in with the occult on a set. But fate has a funny way of slapping Brimstone with the dark hand of magic.

When a deadly attack on a veteran’s hall nearly kills his Korean War buddy Cactus, the only clue left behind is a leaf from the Black Lotus, a war drug used in ancient Babylonia . . . that’s supposedly been ex- tinct since the pyramids were young.

On the boardwalk between our world and night- mares, Brimstone must face the darkness within himself to see if he, too, will fall victim . . . to the Black Lotus Kiss.

Evil gods walk the land as armies prepare for war in the thrilling grimdark sequel to the fantasy debut Godblind.

In the besieged city of Rilporin, Commander Durdil Koridam is crowned a reluctant king, and orders that the city’s people must fight to the last rather than surrender to the surrounding armies of the Mireces and their evil Red Gods.

Outside Rilporin, the uneasy truce between King Corvus’s Mireces and the traitorous Prince Rivil’s forces holds, but the two armies are growing desperate to force a breach of the walls before the city’s rein- forcements arrive.
