Nonstop is republishing Silverberg’s Lord of Darkness, and Kickstarting The Monkey’s Other Paw

A press release from Nonstop Press:http://sfscope.malibulist.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/MonkeeCOver1aa2.jpg

As an experiment in publishing our forthcoming anthology The Monkey’s Other Paw (subtitled: Revived Classic Stories of Dread and the Dead) is now a live Kickstarter campaign.

We’re asking for backing for The Monkey’s Other Paw specifically to help get this project to press. Most of the stories are already in hand (authors include Barry N. Malzberg, Paul Di Filippo, Steve Rasnic Tem, Don Webb, and Damien Broderick). Your backing will help us pay for final copy editing, finish the prepress, pay for production-related freelancers and printing, get review copies to the right places, and much more. But mostly we are trying to get our books directly into people’s hands. We have a modest Kickstarter goal for The Monkey’s Other Paw, as we said, this is more in the nature of an experiment, so please follow this link to get more info and also see a trailer for the book.

As always, we greatly appreciate your support.

Robert Silverberg’s Lord of Darkness Returns

Nonstop Press is bringing out the first new edition in thirty years of Robert Silverberg’s Lord of Darkness, a book called “gripping and compulsively readable” by George R.R. Martin. The novel is one of Silverberg’s rare ventures into historical fiction. Most of his notable body of work falls chiefly under science fiction.

Lord of Darkness will be published October 31 during Halloween in New York City. Nonstop Press senior editor Luis Ortiz said, “This is a unique novel that was overlooked when it first came out, booksellers did not know where to shelve it, but it is an exciting adventure story very much in the spirit of George R.R. Martin’s recent work. I think the book was ahead of its time.” Ortiz added that there will be an advance e-book version, under our new e-first/print-second program, available on the Nonstop Press website before the print edition comes out. Nonstop Press books are distributed by Independent Publishers Group.
