BLOOD WOOD REVIEW

David Longhorn has reviewed Christopher Harman’s Blood Wood and Other Stories at: http://suptales.blogspot.com/2023/08/blood-wood-by-christopher-harman-sarob.html

Blood Wood sold out very very quickly but copies are probably still available from some of the dealers who stock Sarob Press titles.

In the UK try coldtonnage.com or fantasticliterature.com

In the USA there is camelotbooks.com / darkhollowbooks@metrocast.net / greenhandbookshop.com / ofilip@nstar.net and ziesings.com

The forthcoming Possessions and Pursuits a shared volume by John Howard / Mark Valentine is already (with a few weeks still to publication) looking like it, too, might sell out very quickly. Let me know if you want this one and haven’t yet ordered or reserved your copy … full details in the post below.

Cheers, Robert.

NEW TITLE NEWS: POSSESSIONS AND PURSUITS

POSSESSIONS AND PURSUITS by JOHN HOWARD / MARK VALENTINE

In this third (and final) shared volume influenced by the supernatural and metaphysical thrillers of “Inkling” Charles Williams (1886-1945), John Howard presents a wonder-filled short novel and Mark Valentine serves up two rather amazing novelettes.

John Howard’s fast-paced novel ‘Fallen Sun’ recounts the battle between several rival groups for ownership of a powerful Byzantine talisman, and the different visions they each encounter when it is in their possession. Through many twists and turns of chance and intention, none of the characters emerge unchanged, until the full significance of the treasure is at last revealed.

Mark Valentine’s ‘Masque and Anti-Masque’ is set in a small, ancient university town with a tradition of seasonal processions. But what is their significance? Could the town really be the occult capital of England, as a new book proposes? And in ‘The Prospero Machine’, the cards issued by fortune-telling machines at a seaside resort seem to have an uncanny influence on the town, linked to an obscure society’s work with dream magic.

POSSESSIONS AND PURSUITS is a Hand Numbered Limited Edition Jacketed Hardcover.

Bound in Light Blue Cialux Italian cloth, Foil Blocked to Front & Spine in White, Quality Cream Text Paper, Full Colour Marble Design Endpapers, Section Sewn binding, Head/Tailbands and Ribbon Bookmarker. Approx 176pp including prelims etc.
