The Lost Ones: Book Three of the Veil

Now available

"[A] fast-paced dark fantasy adventure...[that] should appeal to fans of Neil Gaiman, Charles de Lint, and Robert Holdstock." -- Publishers Weekly

Bestselling author Christopher Golden brings his epic trilogy, The Veil, to an unforgettable conclusion. The mythic realm of heroes and monsters has become the site of humanity's final showdown. And the price of victory may be dearer than anyone ever imagined.

Oliver Bascombe and his sister, Collette, have supposedly come to the Two Kingdoms to fulfill an ominous prophecy. But to unravel the mystery of their destiny, they must first stop an apocalyptic war, reveal a dark conspiracy, and prevent a powerful sorcerer from severing the human and legendary realms forever. As old allies gather for the last battle, even older enemies stand against them. For even legends have their legends...and they have returned -- the Lost Ones.

The Hidden Cities: Mind the Gap
Written by Christopher Golden & Tim Lebbon

Coming May 2008

Every big city has a soul, and every soul has a dark, secret side.

Christopher Golden and Tim Lebbon are delighted to announce a thematically connected series of collaborative contemporary fantasy novels for Bantam Spectra. The Hidden Cities books will be set in places we all know very well - places which hold secrets almost beyond belief.

Mind the Gap, the first book, will be released in late May 2008. This urban dark fantasy - complete with a little bit of magic and a little bit of ghost story - is set in London.

The authors are currently working on the second book, The Map of Moments, which is set in New Orleans. They already have several ideas for future volumes.

Baltimore, or, The Steadfast Tin Soldier and the Vampire
An illustrated novel by Mike Mignola & Christopher Golden

From celebrated comic artist Mike Mignola and award-winning novelist Christopher Golden comes a work of gothic storytelling like no other. Reminiscent of the illustrated tales of old, here is a lyrical, atmospheric novel of the paranormal -- and a chilling allegory for the nature of war.

"With Baltimore, Mike Mignola and Christopher Golden lay siege to the reader's imagination with a grim battalion of gothic images and a thunderous barrage of narrative artillery. This is not a novel: it's a war machine. Surrender immediately." -- Joe Hill, author of Heart-Shaped Box

One man finds himself trapped in a web of ever-shifting reality which threatens to remake the whole of the world -- unless he can find a way to stop it.

For Will James, facing his tenth high school reunion is far from his finest hour, especially since his life has not gone exactly as he planned. Dumped at the altar by his high school sweetheart and with his dreams of being a prize-winning reporter dashed by his job at a Boston tabloid, he is not sure he is ready to face his former peers.But what he does find at the reunion is far more than he bargained for. He soon learns that one of his buddies had died several years back -- even though Will had received an e-mail from him only a few days before. It is not long before other people Will was convinced were alive are turning out to be dead as well, or married to other people, or childless where they used to have children. And new memories are swarming in to replace what Will is convinced was his old life, until he no longer knows what is real and what is not. The only thing he does know for certain is that he has to figure out why he alone remembers snatches of another life before everything dissolves into this new, darker reality.

Michael and Jillian Dansky seemed to have it all -- a happy marriage, two successful careers, a bright future. But late one Halloween evening, driving home from a masquerade, Michael momentarily nods off behind the wheel -- and wakes to find everything changed.

Standing by his car is the little girl he came within a breath of running down. She leads Michael to her "home," an empty house haunted by whispers, and sends him away with a whisper of her own: "Come find me." But in the weeks that follow, it's clear that someone -- or something -- doesn't want Michael to find her. And when one morning, a cruel, vindictive woman awakens in the guise of his wife, Michael must now search not only for the lost girl but for a way to find the Jillian he's always loved -- or die trying.
