I am hoping for the Delany to cone out too, but I’m not betting on ir

Also, McFarland is supposed to be issuing a critical edition of H. G. Wells’ THE MAN WHO COULD WORK MIRACLES.

I’m curious about Claire Curtis’ Postapocalyptic Fiction and the Social Contract: We’ll Not Go Home Again, due out in paperback this month.

1. “Royal Street” by Suzanne Johnson – I’m actually reading an ARC right now. Liking it so far.
2. “The Wind Through the Keyhole” by Stephen King – The Dark Tower is my favorite book series, so this is an easy one to put on my list.
3. “Blackbirds” by Chuck Wendig – The cover alone is enticing enough.
4. “The Haunted” by Bentley Little
5. “The Nightworld” by Jack Blaine – Sounds promising, and hopefully better than Stephen King’s “Under the Dome.”
6. “Westlake Soul” by Rio Youers – Chizine never disappoints.
7. “Curious Warnings” by M.R. James – Ah, the classics.
8. “Darker Minds” by Gary McMahon & Ray Cluley – I enjoy McMahon’s work, though unfamiliar with Cluley.
9. “Deadfall Hotel” by Steve Rasnic Tem – I’m a sucker for a haunted house–or hotel.
10. “Mr. Hands” by Gary A. Braunbeck – I hope Gary Braunbeck is one of those scant few authors getting paid by Dorchester Publishing.

And many others.

1. (not listed here) Through the Valley of the Nest of Spiders by Samuel Delany (Magnus, April 17, though it’s slipped again and again since last fall’s original date, and some places already just say May 1)
2. After the Fall, Before the Fall, During the Fall — read and enjoyed this short novel
3. (not listed here) Cataclysm Baby by Matt Bell (Mud Luscious Press, April 15)
4. The Mongoliad, though honestly I have no idea if it isn’t “just” an historical fiction?
5. Glamour in Glass (sequel to Shades of Milk and Honey)
6. Lance of Earth and Sky (sequel to Sword of Fire and Sea)
7. Ison of the Isles, though I need to read the first book first
8. The Chaos
9. Deadfall Hotel
10. Blackbirds

And a non-genre book on my radar this month is The Book of Madness and Cures, by Regina O’Melveney (April 10, Little, Brown).
