ReAnimus Press new releases [2022] - SFWA Grandmasters and more!
New from ReAnimus Press: ALPHA 1 by (SFWA Grandmaster) Robert Silverberg
https://ReAnimus.com/1704 (available in ebook + paperback + hardback) Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B1KYGXV1 The first in a series of superb science fiction. Alpha is, aside from the first letter of the Greek alphabet, a term that denotes excellence and primacy in a variety of disciplines: in nuclear physics, for example, it is the name of a particle of unusually large mass and charge. It seemed a useful label to attach to this volume, the first of an intended series of collections of science fiction stories. The Alpha series of anthologies will center on no particular theme except that of literary quality. The presence in any one volume of a cluster of stories bearing other thematic resemblance--as in this volume, where there are four or five time-travel stories--will be purely coincidental. I propose to cull the files of the science fiction magazines for stories that an educated and sophisticated reader will find stimulating, and to assemble them in books of roughly equal size that will appear once a year over the next few years. Some of the stories will be fifteen or twenty years old and richly in need of restoration to print. Others will be quite recent: the literary level of the science fiction short story has undergone an extraordinary transformation in the past few years, a fact that demands recognition here. Appropriately enough, this first volume of the ALPHA series covers a roster of writers from A to Z. Specifically, Aldiss to Zelazny--although this coincidence in alphabet is merely incidental to the fact that both these gentlemen, and the several others represented in this anthology, all write superb science fiction. Two criteria were used in the selecting of these stories--literary merit and importance to the genre. The result is that the variety of subjects is matched only by the richness and diversity of their handling--brilliant, frightening, clever, bizarre, powerful, witty, funny--and several steps in-between. So much for policy. The nine volumes of this series provide an exciting cumulative view of a field in which some of the most vigorous and inventive fiction of our times has been produced. Simply put, here is the best science fiction from the best science fiction writers.

All for Naught by John E. Stith
Introducing, from ReAnimus Press: ALL FOR NAUGHT by John E. Stith
https://ReAnimus.com/1547 (available in ebook + paperback) Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XTZLWDC ALL FOR NAUGHT collects a novella and a novelette: "Naught for Hire" and "Naught Again," both originally published in ANALOG. "Naught for Hire" is a quirky, action-packed, comedy set just a few years from now. Nick Naught, private eye, walks down some strange mean streets as he tries to stay ahead of the killers on his tail and does his best to cope in a world where all the irritations we have with technology are magnified. Gadgets act up in big ways, including voice-operated machines that talk back to people. Dilbert could relate. Look for the upcoming webisode series Naught for Hire, starring Ben Browder.

Time of the Great Freeze by (SFWA Grandmaster) Robert Silverberg
Introducing, from ReAnimus Press: TIME OF THE GREAT FREEZE by (SFWA Grandmaster) Robert Silverberg
https://ReAnimus.com/1586 (available in ebook + paperback) Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077QM5XFV ICE AGE--NEW YORK CITY 2650 A.D. UNDERGROUND! By 2300, everyone knew what was happening, and why. The sun and all its planets, as they moved together through the galaxy, had been engulfed by a vast cloud of cosmic debris, and an all but infinite number of dust motes was screening and blocking the sun's radiation from Earth. To the eye, everything still looked the same, but so immense was the cloud that it would take centuries for the solar system to pass entirely through it. Nothing could hold back the ice age. Miles beneath the layer of ice that covered Earth in 2650, people survive in the subterranean cities they built to save themselves as the ice crept with killing cold over all living things. For three hundred years no one has seen the surface or communicated with any other city. Until now. Now the few scientific instruments that remain seem to indicate that the Ice Age may be ending; outside temperatures are reaching a level that may make life possible--though not easy--on the outside. But life in the underground cities is comfortable, and those few who are brave enough to be curious about the unknown frozen world above are suspect; troublemakers. A small party of these 'troublemakers,' led by Dr. Raymond Barnes, with a few scientists and others who think they might prefer freedom to safety, has been allowed to take the long-unused elevator up through the ice to the outside. But they go more as exiles than as a scientific expedition; they are not expected--and may not be allowed--to return. Lots more new books from ReAnimus Press - see the list at www.reanimus.com/new |

Starship of Fools by Nara Strete
New from ReAnimus Press: STARSHIP OF FOOLS by Nara Strete
https://ReAnimus.com/1708 (available in ebook + hardcover + paperback) Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09K4V4153 National lampoon meets Star Trek meets hitchhikers guide meets Monty Python meets, well, Francis Flattener. Francis Flattener, twenty-five, unmarried, unemployed, and a burden on her family. And Royalty (with a capital R). Having, among other things, bankrupted planets, caused wars, poached endangered species to near extinction, and (allegedly) caused the great sewage backup of '43, the royal court of the planet Kodargan and Supreme Council have decided that Something Must Be Done. That Something is either to exile her to the guano mines of Flatulanto 5, or to assign her as Captain of a starship with crew of other adorably deranged misfits and task them with finding something unfindable, to wit, the End of the Universe. Based on the title of the book, you're welcome to take a guess which. Or you can read the book and laugh your ass off. Your choice.

Souls and Hallows by S. R. Algernon
Introducing, from ReAnimus Press: SOULS AND HALLOWS by S. R. Algernon
https://ReAnimus.com/1595 (available in ebook + paperback) Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07HMPST21 Souls and Hallows includes 35 works of science fiction, over 20 new stories -- a menagerie of souls in search of purpose in futuristic landscapes. Will they find it, and at what cost?
Souls and Hallows follows up on Walls and Wonders, a collection of 21 stories, including 2016 Best Short Story finalist "Asymmetrical Warfare." Praise for S. R. Algernon's Work ("Oubliette") Simply unforgettable conclusion. You want to read this one, trust me. There is not a bad one in the lot, and ReAnimus Press has done us all a favor bringing these stories back to light. --Abyss and Apex "I was impressed with the world building here, especially in the stories about alien cultures. The psychological angle is also impressive, as it tends to investigate problems and look for solutions." --Lela E. Buis ("Achievement") is an inspiring story, made more effective by its unusual structure. ("The Meme Hunter") has a powerful emotional impact. There is something to appeal to almost anyone interested in science fiction. --Tangent Online Lots more new books from ReAnimus Press - see the list at www.reanimus.com/new |

https://ReAnimus.com/1713 (available in ebook + hardcover + paperback) Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B7NXBYN5 The exciting sequel to the award-winning The Gilded Basilisk! Dragons, witches, and wizards add their mix to the confusion following two raids in two different places that set into motion a race to determine who rules Farringdale and Loweswater. The warriors Hugin (clever if not much of a fighter) and Gier (headstrong and capable when he isn't a dragon) unite again after the events in The Gilded Basilisk. Ratatoska, the blind warrior with extrasensory perception, takes the lead with Hugin in tow to warn Hildi and Gier that Thora is on the loose and intend on revenge against the four of them.
