jpskewedthroneI meant to start this last week, when The Modern Fae's Guide to Surviving Humanity was brand new, but a week later is still good. Just had too much going on, what with work, gym, and Lunacon on the horizon.
Some of the contributing authors to the new anthology also have books coming out at about the same time, so I figured I'd feature those books--and also some of the "coming soon" books from other contributors. First up is Elizabeth Bear's novel Range of Ghosts from Tor. It's been getting some great reviews from various places. Here's the cover art and a brief description of the book. Check it out, and if you haven't ordered Modern Fae's Guide to Surviving Humanity yet, maybe toss Range of Ghosts into the cart at the same time!
Description: Temur, grandson of the Great Khan, is walking away from a battlefield where he was left for dead. All around lie the fallen armies of his cousin and his brother, who made war to rule the Khaganate. Temur is now the legitimate heir by blood to his grandfather’s throne, but he is not the strongest. Going into exile is the only way to survive his ruthless cousin.
Once-Princess Samarkar is climbing the thousand steps of the Citadel of the Wizards of Tsarepheth. She was heir to the Rasan Empire until her father got a son on a new wife. Then she was sent to be the wife of a Prince in Song, but that marriage ended in battle and blood. Now she has renounced her worldly power to seek the magical power of the wizards. These two will come together to stand against the hidden cult that has so carefully brought all the empires of the Celadon Highway to strife and civil war through guile and deceit and sorcerous power.
