We are delighted to announce the publication of a new collection from Juliet E. McKenna. This is something quite different for Juliet. We hope you will enjoy it.
£3.49
A collection of stories featuring Victorian gentlemen whose business is hunting monsters.
Author: Juliet E. McKenna
Cover: Nancy Farmer
Formats: ePub, Mobi
Publisher: Wizard's Tower Press
In Victorian times a gentleman was expected to be able to turn his hand to whatever noble task was presented to him. Should it be required, this extended to the hunting of supernatural creatures.
In these four stories, Juliet E. McKenna revisits the fine Victorian tradition of the monster mystery. Drawing on the works of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, H.G. Wells, Robert Louis Stephenson and the sadly neglected Bertram Fletcher Robinson, McKenna brings her own take to tales of hunting down that which should not be.
The book is illustrated with pictures by Nancy Farmer.

Apocalypse Array is many layered and fluid, only demanding that the reader believes the Hosts of Heaven and Hell come to Earth to be incarnated into emotionally fraught domesticity. The idea is bizarre but well worth pursuing to the end.
I can highly recommend Apocalypse Array for its original edge, lack of cliché and cleverly spun plot. – Jane Palmer

“I am personally quite surprised by the lack of publicity and praise for Morehouse’s books. I don’t know if her publishers have pushed her books enough, because to me they are refreshing in a genre that sometimes rehashes old ideas and the author has got a writing style that makes reading her books very addictive. I would recommend Morehouse to anyone who likes near future science fiction, give it a try and I am sure that you won’t be disappointed.” – Vegar Holman, The Alien Online

“I think that I would have ended up recommending Lyda Morehouse’s cyber-apocalypse series even if she had made a total hash of the ending. To start with, you just shouldn’t be able to get away with what she has done. It shouldn’t be possible to get published with a cyberpunk detective series in which several of the characters are angels. And even if it was you should not be portraying Gabriel as a black Muslim and Uriel/Ariel as a cross-dressing Buddhist. Nor should you have your angel characters consistently refer to God as “Mother”. Not in America, anyway. Someone at RoC had a serious case of suicidal bravery when they bought this series, and I’m so glad that they did.” – Cheryl Morgan, Emerald City

“The End Times are at hand and the world is abuzz with speculation. Is celebrity Inquisitor Emmaline McNaughton the Antichrist? Who is the messiah? Where are we going and why are we in this hand-basket? Conspiracy theories abound as Morningstar and Monsignor Emmaline carry out their plans for Armageddon in style.”
“An entertaining read, alive with Morehouse’s deliciously irreverent humor and a provocative cast of characters.” – A.M. Dellamonica, Internet Review of Science Fiction

“You’ve gotta love a futuristic fantasy that opens with a lightly humorous church wedding between Satan and the Antichrist….” – Carolyn Cushman, Locus

“Apocalypse Array is as entertaining as its predecessors, with snappy dialogue, a fast-paced plot that serves up some nice surprises, and many well-drawn characters — Amariah, the teenage Messiah, an engaging blend of stubbornness, uncertainty, and conviction; Diedre, both hardheaded and vulnerable; Mouse, sly and self-serving but as oddly likable as ever (it’s really nice to see a sympathetic portrayal of a practicing Muslim); and of course the magnetic Morningstar, notable not just for his demonic powers but for his sardonic sense of humor.” – Victoria Straus, SF Site

“In Morehouse’s hands, turn-of-the-21st-century Earth is cleverly and carefully built.” – Jen Talley Exum, Romantic Times
