Transworld acquires debut Cold War horror novel by Benedict Anning
Transworld, a division of Penguin Random House UK, has acquired Atomic Coffin, the debut novel by Benedict Anning.
Atomic Coffin by @benedictanning.bsky.social

If Philip K Dick and Stephen King had a lovechild at the height of Cold War tensions, it would look something like this book.
GET THIS ONE ON YOUR TBRs

Dissolution by Nicholas Binge. @bingewriting.bsky.social Entertaining, compulsively readable SF thriller about a device that allows entry into a subject's memories. It's difficult to say more with giving away details of the excellent plot. Highly recommended. Read it!

Cover of abyss by Nicholas binge. Image is a long corporate hallway with shadowy tentacles emerging from the far end.
3. Abyss, @bingewriting.bsky.social. Been a fan since Ascension, and this tight little anticapitalist cosmic nightmare about the many-tentacles monster of “efficiency” is a delight. out 5/12.
