Night Shade Books just announced a big sale, and oh look, you can now pre-order Wastelands!

It’s sale time at Night Shade again. We’ve got a few big titles coming in, and we need to clear space in a big way! So until midnight on Sunday, July 29th, we’re offering 50% off all in-stock and forthcoming Night Shade books. Use the coupon code NSB0750, and there is a four book minimum order.

And just to entice you a bit more, we’ve just added a whole bunch of new forthcoming titles to the site, including new novels from Greg Egan and Walter Jon Williams, the new Detective Inspector Chen novel from Liz Williams, the fourth and fifth Clark Ashton Smith volumes, and a post-apocalyptic anthology called Wastelands that will include stories from Stephen King, Jonathan Lethem, George R.R. Martin, Orson Scott Card, Gene Wolfe, Nancy Kress, Octavia Butler, and a whole lot more.

In addition, for those that keep asking, we’re reprinting a bunch of classics. Volume one of the Clark Ashton Smith series is sold out, but will be reprinted in September. Volume one of the Hodgson series will be reprinted in January, and volume two will be reprinted in May.

Buy early, buy often. Spread the word! Oh, and did I mention you can now pre-order Wastelands?

And since you have to buy four books to qualify for the discount, I’d like to recommend the following:

• Princes of the Golden Cage by Nathalie Mallet
• These three fine books by Matthew Hughes
• These three fine books by Lucius Shepard
• The Imago Sequence and Other Stories by Laird Barron
• And don’t forget to pick up a copy of Wastelands for yourself, and hey, why not one for a friend too?
