The Works of Tim Powers

Blog supremo Joe Gordon has dropped us a line to say that the Edinburgh SF Book Group will be looking at Powers's seminal 1983 novel The Anubis Gates as the next book of choice for their discussions.

Joe says "...we’re going to meet on Tuesday 18th, from 6pm in Henderson’s (very nice veggie/wholefood bistro) on Hanover Street in Edinburgh’s New Town," so if you're in the area make sure you're there.

A brand new German edition of The Anubis Gates is due to be published in January 2008 by Piper. This edition will be a paperback release featuring brand new cover art and is being published as part of their Fantasy Masterworks series - though this is not mentioned on the publisher web site. Note that this novel was only recently re-released in Germany in 2004 by Heyne in their Fantasy Masterworks series, so there must be quite a demand for this novel over there! You can pre-order directly from Amazon.de.
