ANCIENT SECRETS THREATEN THE MODERN WORLD, AND THE HISTORIC CRIMES UNIT IS OUR ONLY HOPE When Dr. Dan Kotler—Archaeologist and FBI Consultant—gets an invitation to explore the Huashan mystery caves, located in China’s Anhui Province, it’s an offer too good to pass up. Especially since the lead on the project has promised him some “unusual, out of place history” to investigate. It’s the closest thing to a vacation Kotler ever seems to take. But what Kotler finds hidden in those caves is more than just out of place—it’s a sign of something sinister and dangerous that could threaten the modern world. Alex Kayne—former Fugitive Number One, and the inventor of a profoundly powerful quantum-based artificial intelligence—has come in from the cold. In exchange for staying out of a cell, Kayne has been recruited to work with the Historic Crimes Unit, putting her skills and her infamous AI to the task of tamping down the sorts of threats that emerge from history and endanger the world, here and now. She’s not entirely comfortable being on a leash, following orders and living a restricted lifestyle. But she’s giving it her best shot. For now. Her first case with the HCU, however, may be her last, as she faces off against operatives from an ancient order known as the Jani. They want whatever Kotler has found in those caves, and they think Kayne can help them get it. READ THE OUTSIDERS GAMBIT NOW!

With contributions by: Greg Barnhisel, John N. Duvall, Kristin Fujie, Sarah E. Gardner, Jaime Harker, Kristi Rowan Humphreys, Robert Jackson, Mary A. Knighton, Jennifer Nolan, Carl Rollyson, Tim A. Ryan, Jay Satterfield, Erin A. Smith, and Yung-Hsing Wu William Faulkner's first ventures into print culture began far from the world of highbrow New York publishing houses such as Boni & Liveright or Random House and little magazines such as the Double Dealer. With that diverse publishing history in mind, this collection explores Faulkner's multifaceted engagements, as writer and reader, with the US and international print cultures of his era, along with how these cultures have mediated his relationship with various twentieth- and twenty-first-century audiences. These essays address the place of Faulkner and his writings in the creation, design, publishing, marketing, reception, and collecting of books, in the culture of twentieth-century magazines, journals, newspapers, and other periodicals (from pulp to avant-garde), in the history of modern readers and readerships, and in the construction and cultural politics of literary authorship. Several contributors focus on Faulkner's sensational 1931 novel Sanctuary to illustrate the author's multifaceted relationship to the print ecology of his time, tracing the novel's path from the wellsprings of Faulkner's artistic vision to the novel's reception among reviewers, tastemakers, intellectuals, and other readers of the early 1930s. Other essayists discuss Faulkner's early notices, the Saturday Review of Literature, Saturday Evening Post, men's magazines of the 1950s, and Cold War modernism.

IT WAS GOING TO BE CALLED "THE BOOK OF KEVIN" But that sounded too "manifesto." It started with Neil Gaiman recommending a notebook, and an author marking his 50th birthday. Every day, for 123 days, a bestselling novelist wrote down the little bits of wisdom he'd heard and learned from mentors and family and friends over the years, as well as some things he'd thought of all on his own. And after the notebook was full he typed it all up, read it all through, and somehow learned a few new things himself. A Note from the Author is 123 days of exploration and reflection, inspiration and extrapoltion. From Stoic philsophy to folksy wisdom, every page has something to teach and carry with you. From "Grattitude is a Cheat Code" to the uncomfortable notion that "The Obstacle Could Be You," this book is packed with the sort of wisdom you would hope to get from a true friend or a brilliant mentor. And no one is more surprised about it than the author himself. START YOUR JOURNEY WITH SOME WORDS FROM A TRUE WISE GUY
