AN UNHEAVENLY HOST HAS ARRIVED

AN UNHEAVENLY HOST has arrived and looks really great ... already very few copies left.

Folk in the UK will have got their copies already and I have now almost finished packing up and posting European, USA and Rest of World pre-ordered (and just ordered) copies … most have shipped and I hope to ship the last few in the next couple of days.

And I am currently working hard to finish off the Rosemary Pardoe edited, and eagerly awaited, THE GHOSTS & SCHOLARS BOOK OF FOLLIES AND GROTTOES for an early September publication. If all goes to plan I’ll be aiming to announce this one once I’ve finished posting all ordered copies of AN UNHEAVENLY HOST and taken a week or so of deserved rest.

Take care folks. Cheers, Robert.

AN UNHEAVENLY HOST ~ PRODUCTION UPDATE

AN UNHEAVENLY HOST by C.E. WARD [see post below for full details] has been very slightly delayed at my printers. Although I had been told to expect the books before the end of June, I am now advised that delivery will be on (or around) 12 July. Many apologies everyone for the slight wait.

I will, of course, work to get pre-ordered copies checked, numbered, packed and posted as quickly as I can once the books are to hand … and already almost 95% of the print run for this one is sold or reserved.

Thanks for your patience.

Cheers, Robert.

AN UNHEAVENLY HOST ~ NEW TITLE NEWS

NEW TITLE NEWS ...

AN UNHEAVENLY HOST by C.E. WARD

 

C.E. (Clive) WARD is the author of three Sarob Press ghost story collections ... Vengeful Ghosts (1998), Seven Ghosts and One Other (2010) and Malevolent Visitants (2016). Sarob Press also published Clive’s stand-alone novella Legionnaire (2019). The collections sold out very, very quickly and are now almost impossible to find ... and, when they do appear for sale, command very high prices.

And now comes collection number four ... An Unheavenly Host contains eight distinctly Jamesian ghost stories (four are previously unpublished) ~ here you will discover creepy, dark graveyards, churches, lonely farms, shadowy lanes and places where the past intrudes terribly and vengefully upon the present, and where things best forgotten are also best left alone ... and unspoken of. Fill your glass, stoke the fire, and settle down in your favourite chair for a selection of decidedly pleasing terrors.

The rather gruesome wrap dust jacket art is by, of course, the always and ever brilliant PAUL LOWE.

Stories: Autumn Harvest, The Chapter House Window*, A Wrong Turn, Sins of the Fathers*, Assizes, Captured in Oils*, 11334, and Substantiated Evidence* (*original to this volume)

THIS WORLD AND THAT OTHER ~ NEW TITLE NEWS

THIS WORLD AND THAT OTHER

JOHN HOWARD / MARK VALENTINE

This new shared volume offers two original novellas influenced by the supernatural and metaphysical thrillers of “Inkling” Charles Williams (1886-1945).

In “All the Times of the City”, John Howard evokes resonances across time and alternate realities in a London that is by turns familiar and unfamiliar. Caught in a strange spiral, his characters move in a changing City threatened by amoral plotters driven by greed and ambition. But visions of alternative possibilities, of what might have been, still haunt their City too. This is a deeply imagined story that immerses the reader in a tense and troubling drama.

In “Armed for a Day of Glory”, Mark Valentine’s narrator tells us: ‘The Archdeacon thinks I should begin with the Byzantine cloak, the King of Moab with his shewstone, the young archer with the old yew bow, the Dame with the Great Horn, the laird with his lost banner, and Kate with the escaped dragon. They all have their merits and will have their due turn.’ And so they do, in a rip-roaring thriller about an occult conspiracy that only a band of antiquarians and eccentrics can thwart.

This World and That Other follows the duo’s Sarob Press volume Powers and Presences, also inspired by Williams.

Dust-Jacket art by PAUL LOWE.

THIS WORLD AND THAT OTHER is a Hand Numbered Limited Edition Jacketed Hardcover. Lithographically Printed on Quality Cream Bookwove Paper, Bound in Wibalin Cloth (Fine Linen Style), Section Sewn binding, Foil Blocked to Spine, Coloured Endpapers & Head/Tailbands. Approx 128pp including prelims.

Publication currently scheduled for late March/early April 2022.

STOCK UPDATE ~ FEBRUARY 2022

I have just half a dozen copies remaining of King Satyr by Ron Weighell.

And about eight copies only of Sacred and Profane by Peter Bell.

And a reminder to folk that our December 2020 title, Ill Met By Darkness (four original ‘folkish-horror’ novelettes/novellas by the ever excellent Paul Finch) is still available to order.

Also currently available (but both low stock) is Their Dark & Secret Alchemy (novellas by Richard Gavin, Colin Insole and Damian Murphy) and Legionnaire (a signed stand-alone ghostly novella by C.E. Ward with quite amazing wrap-jacket art by the brilliant Paul Lowe).

News of our late March 2022 title coming very soon.

Cheers, Robert.
