News
Borderlands
is adding summertime events at a remarkable pace, so we'll be sending out
a supplemental newsletter this month to keep you updated.
New Newsletter Editor: Madeline Ruegg has replaced Cary Heater (who continues
to do events and publicity) as editor of Dispatches. Maddie has been an avid
reader in the field for years and brings nine years of experience in bookselling
to our staff. When not editing this fine publication or playing with her
kitty cats, Madeline pursues a Master's Degree in Celtic Mythology and Folklore
with plans to earn a PhD. in Comparative Literature.
Spookycon will be taking place in San Francisco on Halloween week-end (October
30-31) at The Cathedral Hill Hotel (1101 Van Ness Ave. at Geary Blvd.)
From the Spookycon website ( http://www.spookycon.com/ ).
"If you attended last year's Spookycon, you got to see such horror lumninaries
as Reggie Bannister (actor PHANTASM, BUBBA HO-TEP), Poppy Z. Brite (author
LOST SOULS, DRAWING BLOOD, EXQUISITE CORPSE ), Ramsey Campbell (author PACT
OF THE FATHERS, SILENT CHILDREN), Geoff Cooper ( http://www.geoffcooper.com
),Mike Mendez (director THE CONVENT), Bill Moseley (actor TEXAS CHAINSAW
MASSACRE 2, HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES), Ted Naifeh (comic artist GLOOMCOOKIE,
HOW LOATHSOME), Dave Parker ( director THE DEAD HATE THE LIVING), David J.
Schow (screenwriter THE CROW, author THE KILL RIFF) , Scott Spiegel (screenwriter
EVIL DEAD 2, director FROM DUSK TILL DAWN 2), and Serena Valentino (comic
writer GLOOMCOOKIE, NIGHTMARES AND FAIRY TALES).
THIS YEAR, Spookycon returns on HALLOWEEN WEEKEND (October 30th and 31st)
with our guests WARREN ELLIS (author of TRANSMETROPOLITAN), Christa Faust
(author CONTROL FREAK, HOODTOWN), Caitlin R. Kiernan (author SILK, THRESHOLD),

Guest Party on Saturday night! At the door cost will be $25 per day, $50
for the weekend. Laminates will be cut off at October 1st. "
CORRECTION: We'd like to apologize for the mistaken review that we printed
last month. David Drake's GRIMMER THAN HELL, which we still wholeheartedly
recommend, was listed with the review for David Drake's ALL THE WAY TO THE
GALLOWS. GALLOWS is very funny; GRIMMER is not. We regret the
error, and promise not to do it again.
We received the following from one of our favorite artists,
Alan M. Clark: "I am writing to announce the opening of my new web
site and online store, alanmclark.com (The Art of Alan M. Clark & More):
http://www.alanmclark.com
Please come to my BYOB grand opening gala which will be going on for the next few years on my site!
Original art, illustration and fine art, fine art prints, books, etc...
With the help of Chad Savage -- ( http://www.sinistervisions.com
)-- I finally have a fully functional, secure store site as well as a great
place to showcase my work. There are still hundreds of items--mostly
images for sale in the form of prints--that I haven't installed yet, but
I've made a good start and felt now was the time to make this announcement.
I will be expanding the store continuously in the coming months. So
please bookmark it and visit often."
From the Office
The
column that usually appears here will return next month. Alan has been
remodeling his house and is too covered with paint to type!

Saturday, August 7th at 2 pm, Michael Moorcock reading and signing GLORIANA OR, THE UNFULFILL'D QUEEN:
Come meet Michael Moorcock, author of the Elric Saga, the Jerry Cornelius
books, and dozens of others as he presents a special edition of GLORIANA
OR, THE UNFULFILL'D QUEEN which includes a new afterword, and both the original
and the later revised ending. Originally published in the UK in 1978,
GLORIANA won the World Fantasy Award, John W. Campbell Award, and the British
Fantasy Award. A fable satirizing Edmund Spenser's THE FAERIE QUEENE
and reflecting the real life of Elizabeth I, GLORIANA tells of a woman who
ascends to the throne upon the death of her debauched and corrupted father.
Beautiful, powerful, and revered, Gloriana rules Albion, a vast empire that
stretches from Asia to America. While her life is meant to mirror that
of her nation -- an image of purity, virtue, enlightenment, and prosperity
-- the truth is that the monarch who suffocates under the repression of her
role and the burden of her duty is sexually frustrated and seeks release
in all manner of debauchery. Furthermore, her peaceful empire is actually
kept secure by her wicked chancellor Montfallcon and his corrupt network
of spies and murderers. The most sinister of these is Captain Quire,
a man with the ability to bring down an empire.
Don't miss this legendary author!

THE WILD REEL by Paul Brandon (Tor, Trade Paperback, $14.95)
Natasha is a young Irish artist who hears a wild and secret music when she
paints. She lives in a seaside village in the west of Ireland which provides
a perfect and solitary place for her to work, until the dreams come. They
start as nothing more than vague erotic images and steadily progress, affecting
both her art and her life as the music in her head grows. But she is not
the only one who can hear it. An immortal faerie King has decided that Natasha
will be his next bride, and to that end he'll follow her to the end of the
world, whether she likes it or not. Brandon's story is both contemporary
and old fashioned and at times quite funny, as winning the heart and soul
of a mortal is apparently "not as easy as used to be".
STIFF- THE CURIOUS LIVES OF HUMAN CADAVERS by Mary Roach (Norton, Trade Paper,
$13.95) - Mary Roach manages to educate and entertain while treating the
subject of cadavers and cadaver research with respect and sensitivity.
The most entertaining read on cadavers ever!. And it's all true.
One of the best books I've read all year. Recommended by Cary.
THE HEDGE KNIGHT by George R.R. Martin (Devils Due, Graphic Novel, $14.95)
- A nicely-illustrated version of the short story that originally appeared
in LEGENDS. THE HEDGE KNIGHT takes place in the world of A SONG OF
ICE AND FIRE, about a hundred years before the events that occur in A GAME
OF THRONES. And, no, we haven't heard anything else about the release
date for A FEAST FOR CROWS.
FLUKE - OR, I KNOW WHY THE WINGED WHALE SINGS by Christopher Moore (Perennial,
Trade Paper, $13.95) - Just why do humpback whales sing? Even more
puzzling, why would a humpback whale have "Bite Me" spelled out in foot high
letters on his flukes? Find out why in FLUKE - a warped tale of whale
researchers and not-exactly whales by Borderlands' fave funny guy Christopher
Moore. Recommended by Cary.

SILENT INTERVIEWS- ON LANGUAGE, RACE, SEX, SCIENCE FICTION, AND SOME COMICS
by Samuel R. Delany (Wesleyan University Press, Trade Paper, $27.95)
A FISTFUL OF SKY by Nina Kiriki Hoffman (Ace, Mass Market, $6.99) - Normally
when people start using words like "wistful" and "winsome" and "bittersweet"
to describe stories, I flinch. I like my prose direct and funny and
frightening. Luckily for me, there is Nina Kiriki Hoffman, who proves
that not only _aren't_ all six of those adjectives mutually exclusive, but
they can in fact all coexist in one book. I've loved Hoffman's other
books, so it was no surprise to me to adore FISTFUL OF SKY, even though this
book introduces an entirely new set of characters. The story centers
on Gypsum LaZelle, part of an otherwise-typical family living in Southern
California. What makes the LaZelles atypical is that at puberty, they
undergo a "transition" -- usually a terrible illness and fever -- and when
they recover they have developed magical powers. The powers, however,
are inconsistent and unpredictable, leading to several VERY funny scenes
where teenage sibling rivalry escalates to comical heights. Gypsum,
at twenty, is just reconciling herself to a "mundane" life when she finally
undergoes the transition. Her power, it seems, is one of the "unkind"
ones, a power to curse. If the magical power isn't discharged, it will
build up inside her and eventually kill her, so the story follows Gypsum's
search for a practical way to discharge her power without hurting anyone
she loves. The effects are both comic and touching. From growling
grapefruits to living chalk drawings to creepy dopplegangers and a whole
backyard full of brownies, this is a great story. Enthusiastically
recommended by Jude.
THOMAS THE RHYMER by Ellen Kushner (Bantam Spectra, Mass Market, $6.99)-
First of all, forgive me for using this cliché right out of the gate
but Ellen Kushner's novel THOMAS THE RHYMER is truly a classic in the fantasy
genre. And for good reason. So what makes this story worthy of such enthusiasm,
you might ask? Well, I'll tell you, Kushner makes the legend of Thomas the
Rhymer which has survived as a centuries-old Scottish ballad feel new and
urgent. Thomas is the charismatic young minstrel who unwittingly attracts
the attentions of the local Queen of Elfland. Through his experiences in
both mortal and magical realms and thanks to the Queen's rather double-edged
parting gift, Thomas becomes worthy of the legend named for him. Kushner's
writing is fresh and sensual and she retells this traditional story in a
way which actively draws you into her world's dual realities. Highly recommended
by Madeline (and not just for those out there who love pretty elves with
pointy ears!)
THE WIND CALLER by P. D. Cacek (Leisure, Mass Market, $6.99)-From the publisher's
web site - "Listen to the leaves rustling. Hear the wind building.
These could be the first signs that Gideon Berlander has found you.
They could be the last sounds you hear. Gideon hasn't been the same
since that terrifying night in the cave, the night he changed forever-the
night he became a Wind Caller. But the power to call upon and control
the unimaginable force of the wind in all its fury has warped him, twisted
his mind, and unleashed a virtually unstoppable monster. Those who
oppose Gideon are destroyed ... horribly. No one can escape the wind.
And no one -- not even Gideon -- knows what nightmarish secrets wait in its
swirling grasp."
