The New Weird: Coming to a Bookstore Near You

We just got our copies of The New Weird, which looks beautiful. Tachyon did a great job with it. (Contributor copies will go out post-haste, along with remaining payments.)The book should be in bookstores now or soon. I hope you'll check this one out--TOC below the cut. It's a reprint anthology, but has over 100 pages of original material, and some of the previously published fiction is hard to find.THE NEW WEIRD (material original to anthology in bold)Introduction"The New Weird: 'It's Alive?'" – Jeff VanderMeerStimuliM.
