WESTERCON IN LAS VEGAS!


Kage will be Guest of Honor at Westercon 61, July 3-6, at the JW Marriott Resort, 221 N Rampart Blvd,Las Vegas, NV.

WHAT'S THIS?


Go have a listen to a podcast of the Alec Checkerfield story, The Likely Lad! Featured in this week's edition of StarShipSofa: The Audio Science Fiction Magazine. Many thanks to Tony and Martyn for a hilarious reading. And look for more of Kage's fiction, and great science fiction in general, from this promising new audiozine.


OUT NOW!



OR ELSE MY LADY KEEPS THE KEY, a limited-edition novella from Subterranean Press. The further adventures of John James, a nice boy from Hackney whom the fates conspire to turn pirate. Action, plunder, shipwreck, murder, magic, treasure, desert islands, coconuts, rum, a dead man's trunk and many more than fifteen dead men.

COMING SOON (like in September):


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.
