H.A. Hargreaves is one of Canada's remarkable, one might even say legendary, speculative fiction writers. He is a retired professor of English, formerly at the University of Alberta (Edmonton), and was twice nominated (
1982 and
1983) for the Lifetime Contributions category in the
Prix Auroras. His collection of short stories,
North by 2000, in its time received wide critical acclaim from both peers and periodicals.
Today Five Rivers is pleased to announce the rebirth of that remarkable collection of short stories by Hargreaves. This new edition, entitled
North by 2000+, will feature not only all the quintessentially Canadian stories of the first edition, but five additional published short works, along with a foreword from the author, and an introduction by
Dr. Robert Runte.
Cover design has been awarded to
Jeff Minkevics.
North by 2000+ is scheduled for release early in 2012, and will be available in print and digital formats worldwide.
