Countdown to the new Philip José Farmer books from Titan! (post #1)

Over the next few weeks I'll be outlining Titan Books' current plans for its series of Philip José Farmer reissues, so stay tuned to this space, or Facebook!

As previously announced, three titles are coming very soon. And of course one Wold Newton book by Farmer has already been published, although it fell under the umbrella of their "Further Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" line.

The Wold Newton series will have several different "sub-series." Currently the "main" Wold Newton series and the "Prehistory" sub-series are listed. More to come!

Time's Last Gift - Bonus Materials

Following on last night's announcement about the bonus materials for Titan Books' reissue of The Other Log of Phileas Fogg, I'm thrilled to reveal the contributions to the new edition of Time's Last Gift.

First, go here and read Christopher Paul Carey's news about his afterword. Then come right back here to read the rest.

In addition to Chris' fine afterword, the new edition includes a piece which Wold Newton fans won't want to miss: "Gribardsun through the Ages: A Chronology of Major Events Pertinent to Time’s Last Gift" by Win Scott Eckert and Dennis E. Power.

Time's Last Gift, first published in 1972, and revised in 1977, is one of Philip José Farmer's finest novels, telling the tale of the mysterious time traveler John Gribardsun. It also serves as a prequel to Mr. Farmer's series of books featuring the land of Khokarsa in Ancient Africa (Hadon of Ancient Opar, Flight to Opar, and the forthcoming The Song of Kwasin).

Time's Last Gift is currently scheduled for release in June 2012, and is available for pre-order at major outlets such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble. Editions include trade paperback and digital (Kindle & Nook).

The book is second in Titan Books' ongoing series of Wold Newton novels. More titles will follow, so keep following Mr. Farmer's official website, and Facebook (Philip José Farmer | Win Scott Eckert) for more information.

Both Chris' afterword and our timeline are exclusive to this edition:

  • Afterword: "John Gribardsun and the Prehistoric Wold Newton Family" by Christopher Paul Carey 
  • "Gribardsun through the Ages: A Chronology of Major Events Pertinent to Time’s Last Gift" by Win Scott Eckert and Dennis E. Power

So hop over to Amazon or Barnes & Noble and place your pre-order now!
