The Eden Book Society

From the Eden Book Society's backlist of horror novellas, Dead Ink Books has reprinted the 1972 titles Holt House by L.G. Vey, Judderman by D.A. Northwood, A Dedicated Friend by Shirley Longford, Starve Acre by Jonathan Buckley, Plunge Hill: A Case Study by J.M. McVulpin, and The Castle by Chuck Valentine.

Update: Recordings discovered in the basement of the Eden family home have enabled the publication of new audio editions, with bonus material and a foreword from Charlie Higson.


Best New Horror

'The Voice of the People', originally published in Shadows and Tall Trees 7, appears in Best New Horror #29, edited by Stephen Jones and published by PS Publishing. It has also been translated into Korean for the World Goedam Collection, a UNESCO Cities of Literature and Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival collaboration.


Dead Letters

Dead Letters is an anthology 'of the undelivered, the missing, the returned', edited by Conrad Williams and published by Titan. Authors received an item of aberrant post as a writing prompt; this was in the mysterious package that came through my letter box, inspiring my story, 'Ausland'. Dead Letters was shortlisted in the Best Anthology category of the British Fantasy Awards 2017.
