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.
