novel novellas

[adelaidesean]

The two novellas I have out this year are not only substantial (>20k) and therefore great bang for your buck, but two of the best things I’ve ever written. As if that weren’t enough, they also connect to existing stories--so if you want to know what finally happens to Ros and Adi, the two most famous lovers in the world of the Change, or if you want to learn more about the world of “A Map of the Mines of Barnath” and “Inevitable”*, then these stories are for you. (And if you don’t know what I’m talking about, never fear: they also completely stand alone.)

They are “The Spark (A Romance in Four Acts)” now out in Legends of Australian Fantasy and “A Glimpse of the Marvellous Structure (& the Threat it Entails)” from Godlike Machines, long-delayed but scheduled to be out in time for Worldcon.

The novella is such a wonderful length to write to in sf&f, and wonderful to read, too. I hope you enjoy these two, if you get the opportuity.

          

* From the Locus Award-winning anthology The New Space Opera 2. Yay, Jonathan Strahan! (Without whom neither of these novellas would have existed.)

Legends of Australian Fantasy is the whole reason I'm following you and have bought The Crooked Letter :) I loved your novella so much! I can't wait to read more of your work :)

My only non-reader child (he's 14) discovered Ros and Adi 3 weeks ago. He started with Changeling and is now on the third book.

Comments so far include "This is the best book I've ever read!", "This is AWESOME!" and "They should make a movie out of this!"

So thank you :)

I'm waiting, with barely concealed anticipation, for this book to hit domestic shores (that is US). Actually I'd settle for UK shores. Shipping from Australia is prohibitive (at best) and despite my overwhelming wanting of this book I can't justify $60 ;-;

That all said, I can't wait to read to read The Spark!

Wow, if I chance to happenstance these, I'll definitely notice them. Those covers /rule/.

With that being said, where did all these books come from?! I'm inundated!
