First of all, we have a new steampunk feature on the sidebar, with twice as much steam and thrice as much punk as before! Click on the banner to find stories of adventure and daring, with a side of alternate history and cool technology.
Second of all, I am very happy to announce that Justine Larbalestier and Holly Black are coming out with a new anthology, Zombies vs. Unicorns. Born out of an online argument over which is better, this anthology leaves you to decide which is cooler. And deadlier. Look for it in a bookstore near you this September.
Finally, I have stumbled upon a wonderful discovery that I wanted to share. Gunnerkrigg Court is a webcomic dealing with the adventures of Antimony Carver after her mother's death and father's disappearance. The boarding school setting reminded me of Harry Potter, but Tom Siddell is no JK Rowling copycat. You can read it online - there are twenty-six chapters so far and it's updated three times a week - but if you really like it, you can order the first volume through us.

Author talks up her latest novel for teens, Going Bovine.

This tale began as a book-within-a-book in the author's latest novel. In Palimpsest, it is a strange book for children written in the 1920s, about a young girl spirited away to Fairyland by the Green Wind, and her adventures there. The author had never planned to write it, but in a bid to pay her bills, Catherynne M. Valente has decided to post a chapter every Monday until the novel is done and let readers pay whatever they think it's worth. Two chapters are already out, so why not try it?
