Mammoth Books Presents The Books - Plot & Excerpts
This was her last completed story. She was best known for her time-travel series about the immortal operatives of the Company, which began with her first novel, In the Garden of Iden (1997). Her steampunk novel, Not Less Than Gods (2010), details some of the secret history of the Company’s Victorian-era predecessor, the Gentlemen’s Speculative Society. The House of the Stag (2008) was shortlisted for a World Fantasy Award for Best Novel. With this story, written specially for this anthology, we look at a time beyond the apocalypse with the remnants of society trying to get back to life. WE USED TO have to go a lot farther down the coast in those days, before things got easier. People weren’t used to us then. If you think about it, we must have looked pretty scary when we first made it out to the coast. Thirty trailers full of Show people, pretty desperate and dirty-looking Show people too, after fighting our way across the plains from the place where we’d been camped when it all went down.
