Bloomsbury USA

🏹 Introducing: Bloomsbury Archer 🏹 Bloomsbury Archer will publish across the constellation of speculative fiction—from fantasy and science fiction to speculative romance, horror, myth retellings, alternate histories, and more. “Archer” refers to the existing Bloomsbury emblem, Diana, goddess of the hunt, referencing the imprint’s pursuit of the very best storytelling and new stars. The new imprint will be led by Noa Wheeler in her new role as Publishing Director and Erica Barmash in her new role as Vice President, Marketing and Publicity. The UK arm of Bloomsbury Archer will be led by Vicky Leech Mateos as Publishing Director. Wheeler and Leech Mateos are actively building the first few Bloomsbury Archer lists. Bestselling Bloomsbury authors Samantha Shannon and Alan Moore will move to this imprint when it launches in the USA next year, and in the UK this Fall. Wheeler and Barmash have worked closely together as the editorial and marketing leads of Bloomsbury’s Sarah J. Maas group and will continue to do so while expanding into this new imprint. Noa Wheeler says: “As a lifelong fantasy reader and a career-long fantasy editor, creating a new home for SFF at Bloomsbury is an incredible privilege. We’re excited to build a list with something for every reader, encompassing the wide breadth of fantasy and all it has to offer.” Erica Barmash says: “Reaching the passionate fandoms around genre fiction has always been the most inspiring part of my work. We can't wait to continue engaging with readers online and in-person and talking about our favorite other worlds.” Bloomsbury USA President Sabrina McCarthy adds: “As an established powerhouse publisher in the fantasy space, we are thrilled to launch this new imprint dedicated to the genre. More and more readers have come to fantasy in recent years, and we look forward to bringing them a whole new slate of books to fall in love with.” Find out more: https://lnkd.in/eDzkyDhZ #BloomsburyArcher #SFFImprint #SFFPublishing #PublishingNews

Thank you indies! We have TWO Indie Next Picks for April - THE HYMN TO DIONYSUS and EVERY DROP IS A MAN'S NIGHTMARE (now in paperback)! “Deliciously direct and achingly familiar, this book resurrected my hope for literary retellings of Greek mythos . . . Pulley introduces the impact of trauma on the human spirit to the characters of myth—then frees them from it. She casts men and gods in a fresh new light that gives a different shape to divinity, and a tactile humanity to the people governed by it. This book is profound in its process of evolution, gentle in its madness, and explosive with soul. It begs to be re-read.” —Bridget Fenner, Bookpeople, Austin, TX https://lnkd.in/ex55STtf American Booksellers Association #BooksToRead
