Subterranean Press has announced the trade hardcover edition of The Hunter from the Woods, which will be available in Fall 2012. You can pre-order the trade hardcover edition from Subterranean here.

Subterranean Press has also published the final part of their 3-part interview with Robert McCammon by Gwenda Bond. She and Robert talk about Matthew, his favorite research finds, the challenges of writing historical fiction, and the exclusive new Matthew Corbett novella that will be included with the limited edition. Robert also shares a tip about something to look for the books that fans of the series won’t want to miss.  You can read part all three parts of the interview on the Subterranean site: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3.

Finally, a few reviews have popped up around the ‘net in recent days:

Finally, Lou Pendergrast has created a Robert McCammon group on GoodReads. The goal is to read one Robert McCammon novel each month and discuss it.

Robert McCammon attended the 2012 Bram Stoker Awards Banquet, held in conjunction with the 2012 World Horror Convention in Salt Lake City, UT, from March 29 through April 1, 2012. There was a group talk and signing held at Columbus Library on March 29, a mass signing on March 30, a “Robert McCammon Q&A” on March 31, and the Stoker Awards the evening of March 31.

I’ve been told that the Robert McCammon Q&A Session was video recorded and will be posted soon on the HWA YouTube channel. I’ll post it as soon as it’s available. You can watch the entire Bram Stoker Awards Ceremony on Ustream.

Here are links to various reports and videos from the event, followed by various photos.  Special thanks to Darlene Dineen of Columbus Library for arranging the signing and sending me her photos.
