I just got my hands on a single finished copy of my new anthology, Under the Moons of Mars: New Adventures on Barsoom. The rest of my author copies will be arriving in a couple of weeks, but S&S kindly sent me this one, hot off the presses.

* The post title comes from the exquisitely geeky thought that popped into my head that, since Barnes & Noble called me “the reigning king of the anthology world,” if I were on Barsoom, that would make me the Jeddak of anthologies. And since B&N specifically said I was the king of the anthology world, I took anthology and the -soom suffix that Barsoomians use (e.g., they call Mars Barsoom and they call Earth Jasoom). Ahem. It’ll probably be funnier if you’ve read the novels, or after you read the anthology. Or not. Anyway—I said it was exquisitely geeky.
