Titan Books Ltd Birds of Paradise
Book SynopsisMany millennia after the fall of Eden, Adam, the first man in creation, still walks the Earth - exhausted by the endless death and destruction, he is a shadow of his former hope and glory. And he is not the only one. The Garden was deconstructed, its pieces scattered across the world and its inhabitants condemned to live out immortal lives, hiding in plain sight from generations of mankind. But now pieces of the Garden are turning up on the Earth. After centuries of loneliness, Adam, haunted by the golden time at the beginning of Creation, is determined to save the pieces of his long lost home. With the help of Eden's undying exiles, he must stop Eden becoming the plaything of mankind. Adam journeys across America and the British Isles with Magpie, Owl, and other animals, gathering the scattered pieces of Paradise. As the country floods once more, Adam must risk it all to rescue his friends and his home - because rebuilding the Garden might be the key to rebuilding his life.Trade Review'Birds of Paradise sits in a place between Plato and John Wick, a place which frankly I didn't know existed. And it is profoundly human too: whoever has ever known loss will resonate with it.' Francesco Dimitri, author of The Book of Hidden Things

Mira Books Vampire Weekend
Book SynopsisTrade Review“A love letter to the power of music, this thoughtful, humorous exploration of what constitutes living versus mere survival sees Chen (Light Years from Home) at the top of his game.” —Publishers Weekly starred review"A propulsive, poignant ode to vampire mythos, human connection, and the enduring power of punk rock.” —Sarah Kuhn, author of Heroine Complex "Mike Chen is at his best here, with a sharp-as-fangs reinvention of the vampire mythos centered on the power of family, born and chosen, and, of course, punk rock. This book will sink its teeth right into your heart." —Gwenda Bond, New York Times bestselling author"Never getting old sucks! Mike Chen's Vampire Weekend is a kicky homage to punk rock and a delightful exploration of what it means to be 'other,' teaching us that while vampire blood helps, true healing comes from family and forgiveness." —Sierra Godfrey, author of A Very Typical Family "Fresh, intelligent, and darkly funny, Vampire Weekend is my favorite vampire novel since Interview With The Vampire." —Stina Leicht, author of Persephone Station“Vampire Weekend rocks. It’s a fanged love song to punk, guitars, and vampires, and it shines with hope and humor. I loved every beat.” —New York Times Bestselling Author Chloe Neill"Vampire Weekend finally gives us the painfully relatable vampires we've always needed: awkward, cringey, their clothes never quite in style. But with that comes a story of genuine kindness and the gentle wonder of understanding and friendship found in the least likely place imaginable—in your own family, vampire or not." —Natalie Zina Walschots, author of Hench"A strong emotional core carries Chen’s (Light Years from Home, 2022) latest, which is ultimately about healing from old wounds and learning how to embrace life again after loss—even if you’re dead." —Booklist"The narrative shifts through time to tell a story of family and battling loneliness with music for an altogether unique tale." —Book Riot"It’s funny, it’s suspenseful, it’s sometimes heartbreaking but always thrilling. The story will never go where you expect it to go, and that’s just one of many reasons you won’t be able to put it down once it’s open in your hands." —Culturess"Anyone looking for a cute, family story that happens to star someone who lives off blood will be fully satiated." —Tor.com"An ode to a love for vampires, music, and family." —Library Journal“Vampire Weekend by Mike Chen was a fun supernatural romp.” —io9

Open Road Media The Infinity Concerto
Book SynopsisMusic, myth, and magic mix in this tale of a melody not meant for human ears, from the New York Times–bestselling and award-winning author of Darwin’s Radio. Michael Perrin is an aspiring poet, struggling to express the chaotic cadences of his thoughts on paper. He finds a kindred spirit in Arno Waltiri, the film score composer behind several of Michael’s favorite classic movies. The maestro’s greatest piece, however, was performed in front of a live audience only once. The concerto Opus 45, Infinity left its listeners entranced, altered to the very core of their souls. Waltiri’s composition is a song of power. Never meant to be heard by human ears, its melody is as captivating as a siren’s call, its notes ring out like a death knell, and its rhythms shake the very foundations of reality. The music’s otherworldly tones have led Michael through the gate between Earth and the Realm of the Sidhedark, where faeries reign by rule of magic—and where Michael must find his muse if he’s ever to return home. The Infinity Concerto is a fantasy masterpiece by the Hugo and Nebula Award–winning author of the Forerunner Saga, Eon, and other imaginative classics. Trade Review“A delight. A vision of Faery that may owe a bit to a wish to do it right. Read it.” —Analog Praise for Greg Bear “Greg Bear is one of the best of this generation’s idea writers. He explores the very edge of tomorrow and makes you feel what might happen the day after that.” —David Brin “A writer of remarkable talent and fresh vision.” —Library Journal

Rebellion Publishing Ltd. Dream London
Book SynopsisCaptain Jim Wedderburn has looks, style and courage by the bucketful. He's adored by women, respected by men and feared by his enemies. He's the man to find out who has twisted London into this strange new world, and he knows it. But in Dream London the city changes a little every night and the people change a little every day. The towers are growing taller, the parks have hidden themselves away and the streets form themselves into strange new patterns. There are people sailing in from new lands down the river, new criminals emerging in the East End and a path spiralling down to another world. Everyone is changing, no one is who they seem to be.Trade Review"Tony Ballantyne's sixth novel, Dream London, is one of those unclassifiable gems that crop up from time to time. London is transforming into a quasi-Victorian nightmare of instant gratification. One man, Captain James Wedderburn - pimp, egotist and arch manipulator - is charged by the mysterious Cartel to find out who or what might be responsible. Along the way he meets a cast of delightful grotesques - Honey Peppers, a foul-mouthed six-year-old lackey to a psychotic gangster; the charmingly naive frog-man Mr Monagon; and the Quantifiers, huge humans with eyes on the ends of their tongues - as he brings about his own, and London's, redemption. The novel shares the surreal, absurdist whimsy of Alice in Wonderland and Chesterton's The Man Who Was Thursday." - The Guardian "Tony Ballantyne dares to dream...succeeds beyond all expectation." - Locus

It''s a pretty standard dried-up western town.There''s a pawnshop (someone lives in the basement and is seen only at night). There''s a diner (people who are just passing through tend not to linger). And there''s new resident Manfred Bernardo, who thinks he''s found the perfect place to work in private (and who has secrets of his own).Stop at the one traffic light in town, and everything looks normal.
