On April 9, 2015, Robert McCammon visited the campus of Northeast Alabama Community College. The English classes there had read Boy’s Life and were assigned to create various Boy’s Life-inspired projects: dioramas, games, and other displays. Click on the link below to view a gallery of photos of the projects. Thanks to NACC’s Joan Reeves and Joan Tucker for the photos!

Artist Kidi Bobo has contributed an illustration she did of Swan from Swan Song. You can find more fan artwork on the Fan Artwork page.

I recently discovered two more Japanese publications that included translations of stories by Robert McCammon: The Best of Masques (1992) included “Nightcrawlers,” and issue 4 of Mysteries! (2004) included “Beauty.” The covers for both have been added to the Book Cover Gallery.



Back in January, we mentioned that Robert McCammon’s short story “Yellowjacket Summer” was going to be reprinted in an anthology entitled Bad Seeds: Evil Progeny. The Prime Books trade paperback will be available in July and is pre-orderable from Amazon now. The cover for the book can be seen to the right; it has been added to the Book Cover Gallery.


A couple of great new reviews have shown up on the ‘net in the past few days:


Artist Lia MacLeod posted her design for a book cover and title page for Swan Song on Behance. She graciously allowed me to add it to the Fan Artwork page here. You can click on the image below or click here to see her work.
