100 years in the future in the far north of England, the Gulf Stream has ceased and the climate is in turmoil.

He meets the winners and the losers. Winston, a disillusioned journalist turned
alcoholic with a gallery of photos which show dangerous levels of water below the site, and Pollard, the local man of God whose faith is for sale. But it is Anna, Quinn’s some-time girlfriend in charge of filling the dead cattle pits who faces the deepest abyss of all. An all- too-plausible Orwellian vision. 348pp. £16.99 NOW £3.25

76132 SHRINKING MAN by Richard Matheson Scott Carey has been exposed to a cloud of radioactive spray. Now he can no longer deny the extraordinary truth. Not only is he losing weight, he is also shorter - Scott Carey has begun to shrink. At first he continues some kind of normal life, then later, having left human contact behind, he must survive in a world where insects and spiders are giant enemies on his journey into the unknown. Just like a Kafka fable, the novel was first published in 1956 and stands alongside ‘I Am Legend’ as Matheson’s most important contribution to the science fiction genre.

75996 CORSETS & CLOCKWORK: 13
Steampunk Romances edited by Trisha Telep Steampunk is a hugely popular new form of fiction, where the vampire story meets gothic Victorian romance. Where would the story be without the kick- ass rebellion - in an airship under goggles, in a corset that is simply impossible to swim in, fighting Lovecraftian monsters in a 1958 T-Bird or dodging metal Nazis? Come for the steam, stay for the punk. In this book you will find magical outcasts and kindred spirits, feisty heroines and genius inventors, war zones and supernatural rituals, darkness and dystopia. 13 tales where technomagical and natural desires collide with humanity on the line. 437pp, paperback. $9.95 NOW £3.75
76135 STEAMPUNK by Paul Roland What began in the late 1980s as an underground community of science fantasy aficionados with a fetish for Victoriana now purveys almost every aspect of popular culture from music and movies to computer games and comics. Steampunk is much more than a retro-futuristic fashion statement or subgenre of science fiction. The literature, art, music and films of this burgeoning community offer a radical and irreverent reimagining of society. The world of steampunk is the elegant gas lit world of Jules Verne and H. G. Wells, of Michael Moorcock and their literary antecedents for whom the digital age never dawned. Sub-titled ‘Back to the Future with the New Victorians’, Paul Roland traces the history of steampunk drawing on exclusive interviews with key figures including Cherie Priest, Mark Hodder, Kris Kukski and Professor Elemental. 192pp in paperback, colour plates. £9.99 NOW £3.50
