From the greatest names in fantasy and horror comes an anthology of stories inspired by
Join Alice as she is thrown into the whirlwind of Wonderland, in an anthology that bends the traditional notions of Lewis Carroll's classic novel. Contributors include the bestselling M.R. Carey, Genevieve Cogman, Catriona Ward, Rio Youers and L.L. McKinney.
Within these pages you'll find myriad approaches to Alice, from horror to historical. There's even a Wild West tale from Angela Slatter, poetry, and a story by Laura Mauro which presents us with a Japanese folklore-inspired Wonderland.
Alison Littlewood, Cavan Scott and Catriona Ward make the more outlandish elements their own, while James Lovegrove instead draws on the supernatural. Cat Rambo takes us to a part of Wonderland we haven't seen before and Lilith Saintcrow gives the legend a science-fiction spin. The nightmarish reaches of the imagination are the breeding ground for M.R. Carey's visions, while Robert Shearman, George Mann, Rio Youers and Mark Chadbourn's tales have a deep-seated emotional core which will shock, surprise and tug on the heart-strings.
So, it's time now to go down the rabbit hole, or through the looking-glass or... But no, wait. By picking up this book and starting to read it you're already there, can't you see?

From the shadows, he strikes… Kayvaan Shrike is a legend among the Raven Guard and beyond, a swift and silent killer whose journey has taken him to Chapter Master. This is his story.

Vaunted warrior of the Raven Guard, Shrike has ascended the ranks of this most mysterious and deadly brotherhood all the way to Chapter Master. He is a legend amongst his battle-brothers, one that began humbly enough in the wilds of Kiavahr. Shrike has fought and bested many foes, but one in particular, the Ork Warlord Gorkrusha, dogged him throughout many campaigns. From veteran to Shadow Captain, Shrike clashed with his old nemesis time and again, determined to bring about a final reckoning and bloody vengeance to the greenskin.

George Mann, undisputed master of Raven Guard fiction, weaves the tale of the Chapter's new leader and his decades-long feud with the vicious greenskin warboss Gorkrusha. It's a tale of obsession and vengeance, and it's wholly satisfying.

The Raven Guard embark on missions of subterfuge and stealth to defeat the forces of Chaos.

The Raven Guard are Space Marines like no other. The sons of Corax fight their battles with stealth and speed rather than fury and flame. As shadows of death, they appear behind enemy lines and strike without mercy or restraint. Chaos engulfs the Sargassion Reach, and Captain Koryn’s Raven Guard lead the fight against the pestilent forces of Nurgle. But they are not alone, the Brazen Minotaurs – led by the headstrong Captain Daed – aiding them in their mission. Can the two Chapters bring their wildly different tactics together to defeat the foe and save the Sargassion Reach from damnation?

It gets into the heads of the Raven Guard like never before – and contrasts their sneaky, shadow-shrouded tactics with the bull-headed Brazen Minotaurs, especially in the novella 'The Unkindness of Ravens'. where both Chapters need to do their thing if they're going to break open a Chaos fortress and annihilate the gooey centre (literally: it's full of Nurgle worshippers and they tend to ooze...).

Welcome to the bizarre and dangerous world of Victorian London, a city teetering on the edge of revolution. Its people are ushering in a new era of technology, dazzled each day by new inventions. Airships soar in the skies over the city, whilst ground trains rumble through the streets and clockwork automatons are programmed to carry out menial tasks in the offices of lawyers, policemen and journalists.

But beneath this shiny veneer of progress lurks a sinister side. For this is also a world where ghostly policemen haunt the fog-laden alleyways of Whitechapel, where cadavers can rise from the dead and where Sir Maurice Newbury, Gentleman Investigator for the Crown, works tirelessly to protect the Empire from her foes.

When an airship crashes in mysterious circumstances, Sir Maurice and his recently appointed assistant Miss Veronica Hobbes are called in to investigate. Meanwhile, Scotland Yard is baffled by a spate of grisly murders and a terrifying plague is ravaging the slums of the city.

So begins an adventure quite unlike any other, a thrilling steampunk mystery and the first in the series of "Newbury & Hobbes" investigations.
