Norilana Books is proud to announce a new annual anthology series of fiction of the fantastic, Clockwork Phoenix: Tales of Beauty and Strangeness , to be edited by Mike Allen, with the first volume to be published under the Norilana Books Fantasy imprint in trade paperback format, in 2008.
The anthology's literary focus is on the high end, and it is open to the full range of the speculative and fantastic genres.
Editor Mike Allen says:
"Clockwork Phoenix is a home for stories that sidestep expectations in beautiful and unsettling ways, that surprise with their settings and startle with the ways they cross genre boundaries, that aren't afraid to experiment in storytelling techniques. But experimentation is not a requirement: the stories in the anthology must be more than gimmicks, and should appeal to genuine emotions, suspense, fear, sorrow, delight, wonder...."
Mike Allen is editor of the critically-acclaimed Mythic anthologies and of the poetry journal Mythic Delirium. He's edited four anthologies and authored four collections; his latest collection of poetry and fiction, Strange Wisdoms of the Dead, was a Philadelphia Inquirer Editor's Choice selection. He can be found on LiveJournal and on MySpace.
