SOLARIS announces 2008 Line-up
After a massively successful first year, SOLARIS continues to grow in size and scope. These are just a few highlights of what is guaranteed to be a fantastic 2008.
Gail Z. Martin
THE SUMMONER was Solaris’s bestselling title in 2007, and February sees the return of Gail Z. Martin, with the eagerly awaited second book in the Chronicles of the Necromancer series, THE BLOOD KING.
Eric Brown
Critically acclaimed SF star Eric Brown, follows HELIX with two new titles. His deeply affecting science fiction novel KÉTHANI is released in spring and is already attracting five-star reviews. In October we start his stunning new hard SF sequence with NECROPATH.
Paul Kearney
Fantasy master Paul Kearney joins the Solaris list with a major new novel, THE TEN THOUSAND, a gritty epic of an abandoned army.
Lou Anders
Hugo-nominated editor, Lou Anders, has assembled a superb collection of alternate-history-mystery stories in SIDEWAYS IN CRIME, featuring some of the genre’s top writers, including Stephen Baxter, Jon Courtenay Grimwood, Jack McDevitt, Mike Resnick & Eric Flint, and Paul Di Filippo.
