New Pages!
At last, a proper page and excerpt for The House of the Stag, (which just won a ROMANTIC TIMES' REVIEWER'S CHOICE Award!) as well as one for The Empress of Mars Also, Kage's Bibliography section has been moved to a new page of its own. Check out these links:

  • Bibliography

  • About The House of The Stag

  • About The Empress of Mars

  • About The Hotel Under The Sand


    • COMING SOON FROM SUBTERRANEAN PRESS...

    A new original novella in a limited edition, featuring the Ladies' Auxiliary of the Gentlemen's Speculative Society... although these are no ladies. Lavishly illustrated by JK Potter.

    Available for pre-order now!


    ANCIENT ROCKETS

    Go to www.Tor.com to read Kage's weekly blog piece on early science fiction films!


    THERE WERE TWO EMPRESSES OF MARS...


    Here's what's up: Kage has expanded the original 2003 novella into a full-length novel (and the first reviewer to use the word "bloated" gets slapped for lack of originality). New characters, new adventures, improved science! And there will be two editions: the first, a handsome limited-edition from Subterranean Press with art by J.K. Potter. Coming in May 2009 is the reasonably priced hardcover from Tor Books. All clear now?

    OUT NOW!


    The House of the Stag, from Tor Books, a fantasy novel set in the same universe in which The Anvil of the World took place. But this isn't a sequel... it's the story of how Lord Ermenwyr's parents met, married and proceeded to start their very strange family. An alternate title might have been The Villain's Journey.
