The Hunter From the Woods
From Subterranean Press:

Robert McCammon’s new collection of linked tales featuring Michael Gallatin, hero of his classic novel, The Wolf’s Hour, looks to be headed to the printer ahead of its scheduled date. At the moment, we’re waiting for Rick to set pen to signature pages. As soon as those are in hand, The Hunter from the Woods shuttles off to the printer.

In the meantime, head over to the Hunter page to check out a few of Vincent Chong’s seven full-color interior illustrations. Hunter is preselling so well that we many not have copies available to our wholesale and large online retail accounts. A direct order is your best bet to guarantee you receive a copy.

Subterranean Press has revealed the cover art for Robert McCammon’s upcoming The Hunter from the Woods, a collection of stories and novellas featuring Michael Gallatin, the lycanthropic hero of The Wolf’s Hour.  The art is by Vincent Chong, who also did the cover art for the recent Subterranean limited edition of The Wolf’s Hour.  The book is scheduled for publication in November 2011. Click on the image to see a larger version.

Subterranean Press has also made the complete novella “The Room at the Bottom of the Stairs” available as a free ebook download in EPUB (NOOK) and MOBI (Kindle) formats.  This novella originally appeared in the limited edition of The Wolf’s Hour, and it is also included in The Hunter from the Woods.  You can download the novella from the Subterranean Press order page.

Russian publisher Эксмо (Eksmo) has released new hardcover editions of four of Robert McCammon’s novels: They Thirst, The Wolf’s Hour, Swan Song (2 volumes), and Boy’s Life (2 volumes).  The covers of all six books have been added to the Book Cover Gallery.
