Sláine the Exile (2007)

Published in the UK and USA by Black Flame. Exile is the first verse in the Lay of Sláine Mac Roth, son of the Sessair. Essentially it is a bildungsroman, following the young warrior's coming of age. Sláine must come to terms with his warrior's gift, the Warp Spasm, and the grief the fates have in store for him. It all begins with so much promise as Exile chronicles his acceptance into the elite warriors of the Red Branch, but the Morrigan has other plans for Sláine. Sláine encounters Ukko, a filthy dwarven scoundrel, who attaches himself to the young warrior, 'guiding' him in this new life as a rootless vagabond.

Temple: Incarnations (forthcoming)
TPB ISBN: 09776681-6-9

A man awakens in a filthy bedroom with no recollection of who he is or how he got there. Seeing an old Gideon bible on a nightstand, he finds a name to call his own - Temple. This is the story of Temple's quest for identity and purpose in a dying, decaying world.

By turns heartbreaking, enlightening, and surreal, T.M. Wright describes Temple's tale as "a story about Death written by a man who has clearly consorted with devils."

This novella comprises the four part Temple series published in Apex Digest issues five through eight, with a special introduction from T.M. Wright and an Afterword from the author.

Only 100 hardcovers will be produced, each numbered, and signed by T.M. Wright, and cover/interior artist Judi Davidson, and myself. The hardcover is being released without an ISBN as a purely collectors edition. An unsigned, unlimited trade paperback version will also be available.

Elemental (2006)
Tor

In the winter of 2005, after the horrifying natural disaster of the tsunami in Southeast Asia, Alethea Kontis and I joined forces to raise money to help the distressed survivors and have created Elemental.

Elemental has an introduction by Arthur C. Clarke and more than twenty stories by Brian Aldiss, David Drake, Jacqueline Carey, Martha Wells, Larry Niven, Joe Haldeman, Eric Nylund, Sherrilyn Kenyon writing as Kinley MacGregor, and a Dune story by Brian Herbert & Kevin J. Anderson, and many others. Elemental stands as one of the most important genre anthologies of the year, but more than that: in giving real value for the purchase price, everyone who sells this book can be proud, and everyone who buys it will be richly rewarded for supporting the tsunami relief effort.

Smoke Ghost (January 2002)
305 pages - Midnight House - ISBN: 0970734972

A second collection of stories by Fritz Leiber! Assembled here we have some of Mr. Leiber’s most renowned tales with a liberal dose of rarities that have been unavailable in any form for many years. Were that not enough to make this a cornerstone volume, we are pleased to present the first publication anywhere of a “lost” novelette, “The Enormous Bedroom”!


Black Gondolier (June 2001)
304 pages - Midnight House - ISBN: 0967515777

A landmark event for devotees of weird fiction: a new collection of stories by Fritz Leiber! Assembled here is a selection of Mr. Leiber's best horrific tales, many of which have been virtually unobtainable for decades! From the riveting "Spider Mansion" and "The Phantom Slayer" from Weird Tales to the more recent "Lie Still, Snow White" and "Black Has Its Charms" from rare, small-press magazines, this collection provides an overview of Leiber's fifty-plus years as an acknowledged master of the weird tale. While much of Leiber's seminal science-fiction and fantasy remains in print, his work in the field of supernatural horror has been sadly neglected until now.

SHORT TRIPS: DESTINATION PRAGUE (editor)
Release Date: May 2007
Publisher: Big Finish/BBC £14.99 (£16.50 non-uk)
ISBN: 1-84435-253-6 / 978-1-84435-253-1

Prague has its demons - a city saved from the ravages of war and the Third Reich because of its beauty, it is home to Rabi Loew's Golem, Rudolph II's obsession with finding the elixir of youth, scientific genius in the form of Kepler and Tycho Brahe, and the alchemical obsessions of Magister Kelly.

It is believed that there are magnetic energies whose lines intersect in Prague at several spots. Astronomy, astrology, numerology and magnetic forces have all played a role in building the city - but how will they influence its future?

This is the city rich in history, and full of potential - how will it adapt over the centuries to come? Will it have a glamorous rebirth or wallow in a dystopic nightmare? And what will be the role of the old superstitions in the new world?

For the Doctor and his companions, the answers to these questions are only just the start of further mysteries…
