If you are new to Fantasy- Faction, the Publishers’ Choice article is where we spend a few weeks going to each Publishing House we are friendly with in turn and asking them: “Can you give us 5 books that you think readers should look out for this coming year?” (The two weeks it takes to put this article together should explain the references to Christmas and New Year – our Publishing Professionals aren’t in some kind of time loop!).

The news was posted to my Facebook wall through links to articles in Badass Digest and shocktilyoudrop.com. Inspiration completes a circle throughout time. When the new generation understands the traditions of the forefathers, it can properly ascend. Just so you know: the reason we began this feature a few years back was because we believed that no- one quite knows the genre, its books or its authors as well as the people who work behind the scenes (especially not the titles still in production, obviously!). We readers of Fantasy are truly blessed by the fact that the people at the top of the food chain in Fantasy Literature are incredibly choosy about who they bring into the industry. The result is that the Publishing Houses are full of enthusiastic, passionate, talented genre fans that want nothing more than to deliver us incredible books! Four final edits, three delivered books, two carol concerts and a spunnock in a mulberry tree’). So I’m going to repeat what I said last year (and most likely the year before, and before that) and say this: I can only pick five books, but that doesn’t mean I don’t love the rest just as much: I do. In the end I decided the fairest way was to put all the new titles into my top hat (what? You don’t have a top hat? Honestly, what sort of a household is that?) and draw five out. So this does not mean that my paperback originals – the terrifyingly likely (if we don’t cumulatively get our act together) The Last Gasp by Trevor Hoyle, Sue Tingey’s sexy- as- hell Cursed, Markus Heitz’ bloodthirsty fun The Dark Paths and Vonda N. Mc. Intyre’s absolute classic Dreamsnake are not worthy of your money, or that you should miss Lisa Tuttle’s hugely welcome return with The Somnambulist and the Psychic Thief, Naomi Foyle’s moving The Blood of the Hoopoe or Tom Fletcher’s dank, dark, nightmare Idle Hands. It just means I haven’t the space to mention them here. And of course, there’re all my amazing paperbacks, from Horrorology to Ascendant’s Rite . Easiest if you just look for the JFB logo! So as long as that’s understood . Is there anyway the movies of 2016 could live up to 2015? 2015 had Star Wars, Jurassic Park, Terminator and The Avengers. 2016 has Batman, Superman.This is the first time anyone’s managed to persuade Robert to write a sequel (to anything!) – but it’s well worth the wait, for we return to the Continent, where one of the long- dead gods is about to be resurrected . I asked Robert how he’s describe it in a sentence, and we settled on: It’s an espionage murder mystery set in a military fantasy environment, where old gods, ancient promises, recent war crimes and tribal feuds all affect a clandestine investigation into a spy who went mad and suddenly vanished in the field. So there you have it: don’t miss it! Saint’s Bloodby Sebastien De Castell. April. Book Number Two in our Cabinet of Curiosities is Sebastien de Castell’s Saint’s Blood – and yes, I know that’s not the title it says at the end of Knight’s Shadow, but Sebastien’s tantrum was so all- consuming that in the end I gave in (no, absolutely nothing to do with the fact that it’s a much better title, oh no). And if you’ve been wondering what your favourite Greatcoats are up to now, you’re about to find out: Someone is intent on making Tristia a theocracy, and that means bringing back the Church Knights – and the Inquisitors. Falcio, Kest and Brasti’s attempts to put Aline on her father’s throne are looking increasingly unlikely . Verity Fassbinder is part human, part Weird, so she can walk between the worlds – which makes her the perfect choice whenever something Weird threatens to spill over into the human world. And when dead sirens start dropping out of the sky and someone starts hawking a very special vintage, made from the tears of children, Brisbane’s looking like a dangerous place to live. Vigil is the first of a series, so welcome her to JFB by making her a huge hit, please. The Hidden Peopleby Alison Littlewood. October. Since I bought Alison Littlewood’s first novel, telling her, . But I’m afraid The Hidden People is nothing like her previous books. Step back into Victorian England, where a young man discovers the cousin he met once – and briefly considered might be his bride – has been killed most horribly by her husband, because she’d been taken by the Hidden People, who left a changeling in her place . The first novel in this trilogy, Blood’s Pride, turned up on a lot of . Well, we’ve waited patiently, and at last we have Strife’s Bane, the culmination of the story that started with Blood’s Pride, and continued with Fortune’s Blight: The Shadar is free, no longer enslaved by the Norlanders, but life is far from settled – and now an old woman with unimaginable powers is sailing home, to claim the country and the people as her own. So those are the only five I have space for, and every one is a cracker: you lot have got such an exciting year of reading coming up!—Gollancz. Gollancz, and it’s packed with amazing books to watch out for: The Fireman by Joe Hill, The Hatching by Ezekiel Boone, Night Shift by Charlaine Harris, The Thorn of Emberlain by Scott Lynch . Happy reading – and wishing everyone a lovely holiday and New Year. Occupy Meby Trisha Sullivan. January. Occupy Me marks the genre- defining return to SF from a writer of exceedingly rare talent, Trisha Sullivan. The action- packed literary SF thriller follows an angel, Pearl, in her quest for the salvation of Earth, for the secrets of the Universe and for a sense of self. Particularly as we are able to welcome her back to the genre with a novel that is so purely enjoyable, so special, so well written. Tricia has long been regarded as one of the best writers in SF today and Occupy Me sees her at the top of her very considerable game’. Down Stationby Simon Morden. February. From Philip K. Dick Award- winning author Simon Morden, Down Station is a stunning science fantasy quest across London. Built on another, magical, world that bears uncanny links to London, Down Station is an out- of- the- ordinary novel with engaging characters, a gripping plot and a surprising take on London’s rich history and mythology. Gillian Redfearn writes: . It’s been a long time since I read a novel that had such a unique feel and which kept me guessing as much as Down Station. It’s an absorbing step into a constantly surprising world. And Simon is full of more equally fascinating proposals. It’s wonderful that he’s joined Gollancz’. Stranger of Tempestby Tom Lloyd. May. Bestselling author of the Twilight Reign series Tom Lloyd will be launching a brand new series of commercial fantasy adventures in 2. Stranger of Tempest follows a brilliantly likeable mercenary struggling to maintain his decency in a world turned upside- down by war. He reluctantly signs up with a new company, only to discover that they’re perhaps not as well- intentioned as he would like. He’s been one of the most important names on our fantasy list for the last ten years, and this new series serves as a perfect place for readers to jump on to his writing’. Sea of Rustby C. Robert Cargill. September. Following one robot’s search for meaning in a world where every human is long gone, Sea of Rust is the anticipated next novel from the author of the acclaimed Dreams and Shadows, screenwriter of hit film Sinister and co- screenwriter of the forthcoming Marvel film Doctor Strange, C. Echoing Chappie and The Martian but with a surprising twist, this moving SF story takes place thirty years after the humans lost their war with the artificial intelligences that were once their slaves. Gillian Redfearn said: . It is such stirring stuff, from an exceptional writer who blends the modern with myths to create something new and absolutely gripping. A stirring – and timely – story, which should be on everyone’s 2. The Wieldby Dan Abnett. October. A highly talented and prolific writer of novels, computer games and comics, Dan Abnett’s shared world fictions have been set in many universes, including Doctor Who, Alien, Warhammer and Guardians of the Galaxy. Following an ancient and elite band of warriors, The Wield is a dynamic heroic fantasy adventure packed with vivid action and bloody battles. The flawed but engaging characters and the enthralling premise with a clever twist, will appeal to readers of Dan Abnett’s bestselling Black Library books, and fans of David Gemmell and dynamic heroic fantasy. He has an amazing and proven knack for finding readers beyond the immediate genre markets so I am really thrilled that he’s joining Gollancz for this venture into his own world; a project where he can give his extraordinary imagination free rein’.—Harper Voyager. Well it’s that time again folks! We get to combine two of our favourite things – lists and books! What could be better?! Before we get to our top five for 2. THE SKULL THRONE by Peter V.
