IN STOCK The Whispering Swarm: Book One of The Sanctuary of the White

Friars by Michael Moorcock (ISBN 9780765324771 $26.99)

A celebrated fantasist returns with a unique excursion to a time-twisted realm hidden in the byways of London, city of his birth and his heart Almost anyone who has read or written SF or fantasy has been inspired by the work of Michael Moorcock. His literary flair and grand sense of adventure have been evident since his controversial first novel, Behold the Man, through the stories and novels featuring his most famous character, Elric of Melniboné, to his fantasy masterpiece, Gloriana, winner of both the Campbell Memorial and World Fantasy Awards for best novel. Neil Gaiman, Alan Moore, and Michael Chabon all cite Moorcock as a

major influence; as editor of New Worlds magazine, he helped launch the careers of many of his contemporaries, including Harlan Ellison, Philip K. Dick, and J. G. Ballard. Tor Books now proudly presents Moorcock’s first novel in nine years, a tale both fantastical and autobiographical, a celebration of London and what it meant to be young there in the years after World War II. The Whispering Swarm is the first in a trilogy that will follow a young man named Michael as he simultaneously discovers himself and a secret realm hidden deep in the heart of London.

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia (ISBN 9780062225115 $16.99) In their first official tie-in book, “The Gang” from the cult classic TV show It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia attempt their biggest, most ill-conceived, get-rich quick scheme yet: publishing a “self-help book” to hilarious, sometimes dangerous, and often revolting, results The darkly funny, politically incorrect brainchild of Rob McElhenney, Charlie Day, and Glenn Howerton (the show’s writers, producers, and stars), It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia follows the antics of “The Gang,” four narcissistic losers—Charlie, Mac, Dennis, and Sweet Dee—who run the dank Philadelphia bar Paddy’s Irish Pub. Fueled by alcohol, vanity, and selfishness, and joined by their questionable father figure Frank (Danny DeVito), the foursome embarks on hilariously cringe-inducing adventures and schemes—all of which seem to fail spectacularly. But now, Frank and The Gang may have found their golden ticket. Somehow, after closing the bar by himself one night, Charlie (who’s actual ability to read and write remains unclear) lands himself a sweet book deal, with a real publishing company, and a real(ly intoxicated) editor. The Gang is stunned, but ready to rise to the task and become millionaires—and of course, help Charlie actually write it. In their own crude, inimitable voices, Charlie, Mac, Dennis, Sweet Dee, and Frank weigh in on important topics like Relationship, Financial Success and Career, Fashion and Personal Grooming, Health and Diet, and Survival Skills, providing insane advice, tips, tricks, and recipes (Milk Steak anyone?) as only The Gang can. This is a must-read for die-hard Always Sunny fans everywhere. “In a fairer universe, Always Sunny would be heralded as not merely the best sitcom on television, but one of the most arresting and ambitious current TV series, period.”—The New Yorker

The long-awaited sequel to the #1 bestseller March: Book One!

March: Book Two (ISBN 9781603094009 $19.95) Congressman John Lewis, an American icon and one of the key figures of the civil rights movement, continues his award-winning graphic novel trilogy with co-writer Andrew Aydin and artist Nate Powell, inspired by a 1950s comic book that helped prepare his own generation to join the struggle. Now, March brings the lessons of history to vivid life for a new generation, urgently relevant for today’s world. After the success of the Nashville sit-in campaign, John Lewis is more committed than ever to changing the world through nonviolence — but as he and his fellow Freedom Riders board a bus into the vicious heart of the deep south, they will

be tested like never before. Faced with beatings, police brutality, imprisonment, arson, and even murder, the movement’s young activists place their lives on the line while internal conflicts threaten to tear them apart. But their courage will attract the notice of powerful allies, from Martin Luther King, Jr. to Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy... and once Lewis is elected chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, this 23-year-old will be thrust into the national spotlight, becoming one of the “Big Six” leaders of the civil rights movement and a central figure in the landmark 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.

Now in paperback The Long Mars by Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter (ISBN

9780062297303 $9.99) The third novel in Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter’s “Long Earth” series, which Io9.com calls “a brilliant science fiction collaboration.” 2040-2045: In the years after the cataclysmic Yellowstone eruption there is massive economic dislocation as populations flee Datum Earth to myriad Long Earth worlds. Sally, Joshua, and Lobsang are all involved in this perilous work when, out of the blue, Sally is contacted by her long-vanished father and inventor of the original Stepper device, Willis Linsay. He tells her he is planning a fantastic voyage across the Long Mars and wants her to accompany him. But Sally soon learns that Willis has an ulterior motive for his request: he needs her help to trace an advanced alien technology which, he believes, will help mankind’s post-Yellowstone recovery. Meanwhile U. S. Navy Commander Maggie Kauffman (introduced in The Long War) has embarked on an incredible journey of her own,

leading an expedition to the outer limits of the far Long Earth. For Joshua, the crisis he faces is much closer to home. He becomes embroiled in the plight of the Next: the super-bright post-humans who are beginning to emerge from their “long childhood” in the community called Happy Landings, located deep in the Long Earth. Ignorance and fear have caused “normal” human society to turn against the Next, and the authorities, afraid of anything or anyone not deemed “normal,” order that all Next children be imprisoned. Joshua is determined to liberate the children—and a dramatic showdown over the inhumanity of humans against their own kind seems inevitable . . .
