In my role as editor of John Joseph Adams Books* for Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, I just acquired two books in a new series by Molly Tanzer:
Molly Tanzer’s CREATURES OF WILL AND TEMPER, a Victorian-era urban fantasy inspired by THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY, in which epee-fencing enthusiast Evadne Gray and her younger sister are drawn into a secret and dangerous London underworld of pleasure-seeking demons and bloodthirsty diabolists, with only Evadne’s skill with a blade standing between them and certain death, to John Joseph Adams Books, in a two book deal, for publication in late 2017, by Cameron McClure at the Donald Maass Literary Agency (World English).

* If you missed the news, here’s the Locus and PW reports on the launch of John Joseph Adams Books. Our first three books, Beacon 23, Shift, and Dust by Hugh Howey are out now. Otherwise, thus far I acquired two books in a new series by Carrie Vaughn.
