From Subterranean Press:
We’ve put our upcoming Robert McCammon trade paperbacks (Blue World, They Thirst, The Hunter from the Woods) through their final round of proofing, and are just waiting for their pub dates to roll around. As a reminder, we’ll have a limited number of signed sets of the books, which you can order at the Blue World page.
In other news, Rick’s epic new sf/horror novel, The Border, has been sent to the printer, which means the trade hardcover should ship by the end of May, to be followed 6-8 weeks later by the limited and lettered editions.
Mark Justice gives a great review of The Border in episode 73 of Pod of Horror. The review begins at the 32-minute mark. (There are no spoilers beyond what’s offered in the official synopsis.)
From Subterranean Press:
As Robert McCammon’s The Border approaches its May publication, the reviews are just starting to roll in. Here’s the big one, accompanied by a star, from Publishers Weekly:
Genre-busting author McCammon (The River of Souls) pulls out all the stops for this exhilarating alien-invasion epic, which harkens back to his 1987 blockbuster, Swan Song. The spectacular opening introduces an amnesiac teenage boy who abruptly becomes aware of himself in a full-tilt sprint through a post-apocalyptic battlefield, with wounds that should have killed him, and knowledge and abilities he doesn’t understand…This story blends the gripping horror and action of McCammon’s earliest novels with the empathy of his more recent work, making it one of his finest.
The Limited and Lettered editions are long gone, but we still have a small number of signed trade hardcovers available at the bargain price of only $26.95.
From Subterranean Press:
For those of you lucky enough to score a copy of the sold out limited edition of Robert McCammon’s alien invasion epic, The Border, here’s a first look at the signed, limited edition dust jacket. (The trade edition is still available for order, and copies will be plentiful.)
Meanwhile, back at the warehouse, we’ve been posting excerpts from various books including:
- Fender Lizards (Joe R. Lansdale);
- The Border (Robert R. McCammon) -Don’t miss the opening battle scene of the book!
- Savages (K. J. Parker).
Check them out. You’ll find some mighty good reading.
You can pre-order The Border from Subterranean Press, Amazon US, Amazon CA, Amazon UK, B&N. It will also be available in ebook editions and as an audiobook from Audible. The book will be released in May 2015.
Bulgarian rights for The Border have been acquired by Ciela Norma. A Bulgarian edition of Boy’s Life was released by another publisher in 2013.
Czech rights for The Border and Speaks the Nightbird have been acquired by Classic, who published a Czech edition of Swan Song in 2014.
We previously announced that Chinese rights to The Border were acquired by Nautilus in August 2014.
Subterranean Press posted this update on their website:
We know a ton of folks are waiting for Robert McCammon’s The Border. We’re happy to let you know that it’s right on schedule to be released at the end of May. In one of the next few updates, we’ll post the cover and some of the images from the SOLD OUT signed limited edition.
In the meantime, the signed copies of the trade hardcover (with the epic cover you see here) continue to sell very well. Fewer than 10% of those copies remain available. After that, we’ll be selling unsigned copies.
