INCOMING

  • William Peter Blatty, Dimiter.  Thriller.
  • James Lee Burke, Swan Peak.  A Dave Robicheaux mystery.
  • Lincoln Child, Deep Storm.  Thriller.
  • Heather Graham, The Séance.  Paranormal thriller.
  • Laurell Hamilton, Flirt. An Anita Blake Vampire Hunter novel.
  • "John Twelve Hawks," The Golden City.  SF, the third book in the Fourth Realm trilogy.
  • Louis L'Amour, Borden Chantry, Bowdrie, and The Iron Marshall.  Westerns all.  Plus, Long Ride Home, a western collection with eight stories. And then there's The Daybreakers, Lonely on the Mountain, Mohave Crossing, and Mustang Man, four books in the Sacketts series.
  • Noel M. Loomis, Heading West.  Western collection with nine stories.  The introduction is by Bill Pronzini, making me wonder if this is one of the many single-author western collections that Pronzini edited.  Does anyone know?
  • Frederick Manfred, King of Spades.  Western.
  • Andrew P. Mayer, The Falling Machine.  Steampunk, Book One of The Society of Steam.
  • Steven Saylor, Roma.  Historical novel from the author of the Gordanius the Finder mystery series.
  • Charles Stross, Rule 34.  SF.
  • Ralph E. Vaughan, Sherlock Holmes:  The Coils of Time & Other Stories.  A short novel and seven short stories.  The title story is revised and expanded from the chapbook Sherlock Holmes in the Coils of Time originally published by Gary Lovisi's Gryphon Books.  When Hurricane Sandy flooded the warehouse of Gryphon Books (also known as Gary's Brooklyn basement), all copies of the many wonderful Gryphon Books were destroyed and Gary did not have the funds to reprint them.  Vaughn then revised and reformatted the story, added some new work, and...voila!...this book.  In the meantime, Gary is hard at work producing more fantastic works for Gryphon.  If you have a chance to support Gryphon Books, please do so.  (Gary also has some great books available from Fender Tucker's equally wonderful Ramble House.  Hint, hint.)  En of unsolicited commercial message.
