Library Additions: Three NewCon Press Firsts

Friday, September 3rd, 2021

These three came in just before I sent out the book catalog.

  • Di Filippo, Paul. Worldshifter. NewCon Press, 2021. First edition hardback, #50 of just 60 signed, numbered copies, a Fine copy in a Fine dust jacket. “A high-octane tale of sweeping scope and and [sic] imagination packed into a breathless novella.”
  • Williams, Liz. Comet Weather. NewCon, 2020. First edition hardback, #69 of 100 signed, numbered copies, a Fine copy in a Fine dust jacket. “Practical Magic meets The Witches of Eastwick.” By the author of the Detective Inspector Chan novels, which I rather like.
  • Williams, Liz. A Glass of Shadow. NewCon Press, 2011. First edition trade paperback original, a Fine copy. Short story collection.
  • All three of these are still available through Lame Excuse Books.
