In the mail today, The Book of the Dead, edited by Jonathan Strahan for Harper Voyager, cover and interior art by Galen Dara. Looks amazing. My story in here is, “Walk the Earth.” Fellow authors are all on the back cover. I think you can blow it up and see them all. Quite a lineup!
Watched the black and white version. A lot of fun. True to its comic book origins with plenty of 1930’s and 40’s detective flick influence and reference. Also a great Orson Welles tribute. The black and white with Carol Reed shadows and lots of rain. I’m not a huge Cage fan but he was terrific.
Going away to Maine early next week to teach a fiction workshop. Thought I’d post this while I have the chance. I have a new story, “The Book Life,” in this antho — AXE, from Heresy Press, edited by Bernard Schweitzer and Adam Szetela. The list of authors is on the cover. Will be out June 23rd.
