My morning run used to take me over North Bridge countless times, and years later I’d take my kids there countless times (these pics from a while back). Happy 250th!

ALTMANN’S TONGUE by Brian Evenson is published and shipping! Thanks for your patience as I needed to go through a few rounds of dustjacket proofs with the printer before I was happy. Hoping you all love the book!

I'm excited to report that NIGHT OF THE LONG KNIVES, the latest novel from Tyler Jones, is published!

“A cosmic conspiracy thriller that terrifies like no other.”
—Clay McLeod Chapman

“A dangerous book...a story that does not wallow in the sentimentality of grief, but carves its own path, and where it ends, well, God help us all.”
—Ronald Malfi

“A powerful novel about tragic endings, the raw pain of renewal, and one man’s heartbreaking search for redemption in a world on the brink of chaos.”
—Philip Fracassi

Shipping has started! If your copy hasn't shown up by month's end, please holler.

Fewer than 100 copies remain from the 500-copy run -- ORDER NOW so you're not paying much more after it's sold out!

LITTLE HEAVEN by Nick Cutter is PUBLISHED and SHIPPING!

The latest in Earthling's Modern Classics Series is here! I'm VERY pleased with how this book turned out -- how solid the book and case feel, the quality of the materials, and of course the story itself is great -- but don't take my word for it....

The author had this to say:
"It looks spectacular. Really very well done and something that earns the name 'collector's item'. I've put in on the shelf, where it will hold a spot of honor."
--NICK CUTTER

The illustrator had these words:
"The sheer madness was a rare treat for me to sink my teeth into. It was by far my favorite book in recent history to illustrate. The story is so visual, and visceral, that the art just spilled out and spread over the pages with a mind of its own. Do yourself a favor and grab this book. It's a wild ride (high on the creepymeter), and I guarantee it's sure to please!"
--GLENN CHADBOURNE

And early feedback from several customers:
"I just received LITTLE HEAVEN today and I am blown away by the production quality of this book!"
--BRANDON C

"The story is disturbing, brutal, and raw...but fun. This production is a step above Earthling's usual greatness. Expectations surpassed in every regard."
--TIM B

"Just received this and I am shocked, yet I am not shocked because it’s Earthling. Super stoked to be on the Modern Classics train! This is f*cking BEAUTIFULLY done!"
--ROGER G

"Your standard editions impress and please me, but this deluxe edition is on a whole other level. Wow! Serious collectors need this book. Thanks for the readable work of art."
--JASON H

Well over half the print run is already gone but copies remain. This will also give you first dibs to a matching number for future titles in this series (starting with Ronald Malfi's COME WITH ME).

Best wishes for a safe, productive, and happy 2025 to all my whiskey/whisky-drinking and book-loving friends. And even just the book-loving friends who don’t like whiskey. If you don’t like books, though…I just don’t understand you 🙂

Got this today from a wonderful, long-time Earthling customer, out of nowhere. Total surprise. To say it made my day is an understatement. Such a nice gesture and cool item - he knows I’m a fan of the work of the great James A. Moore. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Bill Woodward. Anyone know what this is? I’ve never seen it before.

One ultra-rare copy of GOBLIN by Josh Malerman available!

GOBLIN was Josh's first-ever limited edition book, the first of several Earthling-Malerman collaborations, and is long sold out. When I published it in 2017, I produced 13 special "character copies" and offered them via lottery to customers who had a long history of ordering the Halloween Series. A little while ago, a customer offered his back to me because he's downsizing (note: he's keeping the "regular" numbered GOBLIN as part of his complete Halloween Series collection) -- so I'm offering it to you, at a starting bid of $350 (the price I believe I paid him for it). The book is in mint condition and belonged to the great magician, Roman Emperor :) (see below pic!)

Scarce...I've never seen one offered for sale. And I can't find a copy of the much larger 500-copy numbered state on eBay having sold any time recently or on abebooks.

I'll include a promotional postcard for GOBLIN as a bonus.

Email me if interested [email protected] --- I'll take offers through this weekend. Note check/m.o. only please. A GREAT holiday gift (even if to yourself)!

Now that all preorders have shipped and I've taken inventory, I have a handful of numbered copies left of Philip Fracassi's SARAFINA -- not enough to put on my site and in my shopping cart, so email me if you want one and I'll send a PayPal invoice. First come first served! [email protected]

A reminder that LITTLE HEAVEN preorders start next week via a 2-day launch!

1) MONDAY NOON EST (current INSPECTION owners only): folks who currently own the last book in the series, INSPECTION, get this day for first dibs at a matching number. If you don't own INSPECTION, please come back on Tuesday....

2) TUESDAY (anyone can order): any time after the stroke of midnight your time, if there are copies left from Day 1, anyone can order.

Any questions about process, please email me at [email protected]

I'm really pleased with how this book turned out! The prototype slipcase pics I saw the other day are also incredible. Only 235 signed numbered copies and should start shipping before end of next month. And remember, owning LITTLE HEAVEN will give you first dibs to the next book in the series, Ronald Malfi's COME WITH ME.

Thank you and looking forward to Monday & Tuesday!

One and a half weeks into shipping copies of SARAFINA, and well over half have gone out. I have not been able to respond to all email inquiries as I've been busy packing books so wanted to give folks a sense of where things stand.

I've been more or less working down the list. If you ordered between May 28 (launch day) and June 16, your copy has shipped -- unless you have asked for multiple copies (I've shipped some of those but haven't gotten to all) or you're outside the US (I'll be reaching out to you this weekend to request balance of postage). I'm aiming to finish ship individual copies next week. With luck, I'll also get bookseller orders out by end of next week; note that I give priority to shipping individual orders because you've already paid me for them -- seems fair :)

I'll try to respond to email inquires over the weekend but like I said, I've been heads down shipping books and focused on that. Thanks for your patience and enthusiasm and all the kind words about SARAFINA from folks who have received their copy!

Important ordering info for LITTLE HEAVEN:
1) Preorders for LH open a week from today, Mon Nov 18, at Noon EST, for those who currently own the last book in this series, INSPECTION. People who currently own INSPECTION are welcome to order and then email me their INSPECTION number -- they get first dibs for the matching #.
2) Everyone else is welcome to order on Tues Nov 19 any time (could be 1 minute after midnight in Japan, doesn't matter).
3) Similarly, all owners of LH will get dibs at the matching # for COME WITH ME when preorders start in January. This approach worked well for another book I recently did, so let's try it again. No fancy tech, just respect the process.
4) Please drop me a line at [email protected] or below in the comments if you any questions.
Thank you!
