Lividian Publications will publish three Robert McCammon novels in trade paperback for the first time in 2023!
The Border will be published on July 25, The King of Shadows will be published on September 19, and The Listener will be published on December 12.
In addition to offering the books separately, Lividian will offer a bundle of a limited run of true first printings of these trade paperbacks. This bundle of all three books is for collectors, to be shipped together, that are guaranteed to be from the first printings and are marked as such on their copyright pages. Books purchased individually or from Amazon, et al, may be print-on-demand books, due to the worldwide shortage of paper that’s still happening.
The combined retail value of the three books is $72.97, but the bundle price is just $49 and supplies are limited!

French publisher Monsieur Toussaint Loverture has posted a cool promo video for their May 2023 release of their translation of Swan Song in two volumes. They have not yet released the cover, though they’ve teased some cover designs.
Back in 2019, photographer and makeup artist Amanda Chapman photographed Robert McCammon for his author portrait for Cardinal Black. We also posted an interview with Amanda conducted by Robert McCammon as she applied the makeup. That interview can be found on YouTube.
This year, Amanda has created a whole series of Halloween-themed makeups and portraits, and Robert wanted you to see them. Here are three of his favorites. You can see a bunch more examples of her great work on Facebook in the folder Amanda Chapman’s Halloween 2021. Even more can be found on Instagram page, AmandaChapmanSFX!
From Robert McCammon:
Hello! Here’s a Halloween present for the fans of Matthew Corbett. I hope you enjoy it, and happy Halloween to all!
“Night Ride” is a new Matthew Corbett Halloween story set just after the events of The Queen of Bedlam. It’s a standalone story, so you don’t need to have read the series to enjoy the story.
You can read “Night Ride” for free here, or you can download the story in the following formats:
AZW3 (Kindle), MOBI, EPUB (NOOK), PDF
And in case you missed it, there’s also “The Pale Pipesmoker,” released in March 2019.
Robert McCammon’s novel Cardinal Black, book seven in the Matthew Corbett series, has been nominated for “Best Horror Novel” in the 2019 Dragon Awards!

Amanda Desiree, who previously reported on the happenings at StokerCon 2019, also attended the Locus Awards 2019 event in Seattle on June 29, 2019. She has written up her recollections of the events, which included Robert McCammon on a panel entitled “Playing in the Historical Sandbox.”
