Could I ask that you update your collection of V.E. Schwab's published works? Most importantly her newest: This Savage Song (https://veschwab.wordpress.com/books-at-a-glance/this-savage-song/), which has been hitting a lot of bestseller categories.

Also:

The Gilded Cage by Vic James (Dark Gifts #1 - which will be out soon, but for which some ARCs have been circulating)
http://www.vicjames.co.uk/books

and

Octavia's Brood, edited by Walidah Imarisha and Adrienne Maree Brown
https://www.akpress.org/octavia-s-brood.html

Thank you!

Th Schwab novel is in.

The Gilded Cage won't be out until January. I don't add books until a month or two before the publication date as a general rule. The further in advance you added them, the greater the chance it gets postponed, publishers fiddle with the cover art etc. It will be added in due time, I put it on my list.

Octavia's Brood is a bit of a pain in the backside to add but definitely one that should be in. I'm out of time for now but I will come back to it. If not later today then tomorrow.

Regarding Robert McCammon, you recently added the latest book Freedom of the Mask as book 2 of the Matthew Corbett series. It is actually book 6. Books 2 through 5 are missing. They are: The Queen of Bedlam, Mister Slaughter, The Providence Rider and The River of Souls.

We have the first in the Michael Gallatin series, The Wolf's Hour, in the database, but not the followup, The Hunter From the Woods.

And we have the novella, I Travel By Night. There is a sequel, due out in October, Last Train From Perdition.

And since I recently came into possession of a bunch of older McCammon's I intend to read, can you also add the following:
Baal, Bethany's Sin, The Night Boat, Mystery Walk and Usher's Passing. I think I will be all horrored out by the time I finish that lot.

Thanks

I saw McCammon is not complete. It's a bit much to do right now, I'll sort him out over the weekend.

Hmm, they are not really pitching this to the sf crowd but we'll give it the benefit of the doubt.

As far as I can tell that book won't be out until 2017. it isn't even up for pre-order yet. In fact, I can only find and announcement that is a year and a half old. I'm going to put that one on the list until we have some more solid information on this release.

We have more McCammon books than you can shake a stick at now.

Is there anything speculative about this? It strikes me as historical ficiton.

Re: "To the Bright Edge of the World" - there's a strong magical realism element to it as well; it would fit well in the "Discoveries in Genre" challenge. (Sorry if this shows up twice; these forums always confuse me.)
