book-cover:


This is the story of the awakening and rise to power of intelligible forces beneath the surface of the sea.The almost imperceptible beginnings and the cruelly terrifying consequences of this new threat to the world are seen through the eyes of a radio scriptwriter and his wife.Told with convincing detail and immediacy, this novel shares with John Wyndham’s other books the distinction of being one of the few modern works of science fiction to bear comparison with the famous novels of H.G. Wells.

A burning map. Every epic, my friend Jack used to say, should start with a burning map. Like in the movies. Fucking flames burning the world away; that’s the best thing about all those old films, he said — when you see this old parchment map just … getting darker and darker in the centre, crisping, crinkling until suddenly it just … fwoom.

Brian Francis Slattery has made available Pictures from a Liberation, a collection of country-ish, rockabilly-esque, generally indie-Americana songs with lyrics derived from the wonderfully rhythmic prose of his excellent novel Liberation: Being the Adventures of the Slick Six After the Collapse of the United States of America.
