Book News : Announcing Jonathan L Howard
I'm delighted to announce our latest signing - Jonathan L Howard!
Jonathan has written a truly exciting far future SF novel called KATYA'S WORLD that I simply can't wait for y'all to read.
Here's the blurb: The distant and unloved colony world of Russalka has no land, only the raging sea. No clear skies, only the endless storm clouds. Beneath the waves, the people live in pressurised environments and take what they need from the boundless ocean. It is a hard life, but it is theirs and they fought a war against Earth to protect it. But wars leave wounds that never quite heal, and secrets that never quite lie silent.
Katya Kuriakova doesn’t care much about ancient history. She is making her first submarine voyage as an apprentice navigator; the first nice, simple journey of what she expects to be a nice, simple career. But there is nothing nice and simple about the deep, black waters of Russalka and soon she will encounter pirates and war criminals, see death and tragedy at first hand, and realise that her world’s future lies on the narrowest of knife edges.
For in the crushing depths lies a sleeping monster, an abomination of unknown origin. And when it wakes, it will seek out and kill every single person on the planet…
How does that grab you? All the details are in the attached press release, and I would be thrilled if you could drop by www.strangechemistrybooks.com to show some love to Jonathan :-)
SO! Our publishing schedule for 2012 is now finalised and this is what you'll be getting:
September: SHIFT and BLACKWOOD
October: POLTERGEEKS and THE ASSASSIN'S CURSE
November: KATYA'S WORLD
