[STARRED REVIEW] “A stellar anthology that proves not only that fantasy is alive and well, but that it will be for years to come.”
—Kirkus

What would you do if a tornado wanted you to be its Valentine? Or if a haunted spacesuit banged on your door? When is the ideal time to turn into a tiger? Would you post a supernatural portal on Craigslist?

In these nineteen stories, the enfants terribles of fantasy have entered the building—a love-starved, ambulatory skyscraper. The New Voices of Fantasy tethers some of the fastest-rising talents of the last five years. Their tales were hand-picked by the legendary Peter S. Beagle (The Last Unicorn) and genre expert Jacob Weisman (The Treasury of the Fantastic).

So go ahead, join the Communist revolution of the honeybees. The new kids got your back.

Happy birthday to our favorite curmudgeon, Tachyon marketing director James DeMaiolo

Alec Checkerfield Uncategorized birthday, camille andre, elizabeth story, goro fujita, invaders: 22 tales from the outer limits of literature, james demaiolo, particle books, the new voices of fantasy, the scarlet letter, the thrill of finding money

With forty years of
experience in the book business as retail bookseller, a book
buyer, and an associate editor, James DeMaiolo brings his extensive
experience in sales, marketing, and publicity to Tachyon. Along the
way, he honed his expertise with stints at Simon & Schuster,
Henry Holt, Berkeley, Tor, and Applause Books.

Since joining Tachyon in 2010, he’s been instrumental in the development and production of many projects, most notably the World Fantasy Award winner THE NEW VOICES OF FANTASY, INVADERS: 22 TALES FROM THE OUTER LIMITS OF LITERATURE, and the Particle Books line.

DeMaiolo is, also, a
published playwright (The Scarlet Letter: the play
[1997]) and edited a collection of essays on the Federal Theatre
Project and a Living Newspaper scenario, The Thrill of Finding
Money (2010).

All of us at Tachyon
wish Jim a happy birthday. May it bring you
joy by being full of things that you don’t hate too much.

Writer, editor, and publisher Jacob Weisman founded Tachyon Publications in 1995. Originally the goal was to bring back the old masters who were out of print, as evident by Clifford Simak and Mary Shelley collections and novels by Stanley Weinbaum and Robert Nathan. Tachyon published 2-3 titles a year and only sold to specialty bookstores. In 2003, Weisman decided to “start the company over from scratch.” He wisely hired Managing Editor Jill Roberts, secured distribution that brought Tachyon books to mainstream bookstores, and expanded the line to 8-10 books a year. The Tachyon titles have won Nebula, Hugo, World Fantasy, Shirley Jackson, Theodore Sturgeon, John W. Campbell, Neukom Institute Literary Arts, Mythopoeic, and Locus awards. Weisman, himself, garnered World Fantasy Award nominations in 1999, 2009, 2010 and winning the 2018 Best Anthology Award for THE NEW VOICES IN FANTASY (with Peter S. Beagle).

While Weisman oversees all of Tachyon books, he was directly responsible for several anthologies including THE TREASURY OF THE FANTASTIC (with David Sandner; originally published by Frog, Ltd), THE SWORD & SORCERY ANTHOLOGY (with David Hartwell), INVADERS: 22 TALES FROM THE OUTER LIMITS OF LITERATURE, the above mentioned THE NEW VOICES IN FANTASY, and forthcoming THE UNICORN ANTHOLOGY (with Beagle).

Prior to Tachyon, Weisman edited and published 14 issues of the quarterly fantasy magazine The Thirteenth Moon and worked for the Seattle SuperSonics. His writings have appeared in The Nation, Realms of Fantasy, The Louisville Courier-Journal, The Seattle Weekly, The Cooper Point Journal, Field of Fantasies, and in the college textbook, Sport in Contemporary Society.

Everyone at Tachyon wishes the extraordinary Jacob a happy birthday. And not just because we’re told to.
