Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children was the surprise best seller of 2011—an unprecedented mix of YA fantasy and vintage photography that enthralled readers and critics alike. Publishers Weekly called it “an enjoyable, eccentric read, distinguished by well-developed characters, a believable Welsh setting, and some very creepy monsters.”

This second novel begins in 1940, right after the first book ended. Having escaped Miss Peregrine’s island by the skin of their teeth, Jacob and his new friends flee to London, the peculiar capital of the world. There, they encounter a dangerous madman named Caul, who also happens to be Miss Peregrine’s brother. Caul has discovered a way to rob Peculiars of their abilities and steal them for himself—and it will take all of Jacob’s efforts to save his friends from certain extinction.

Complete with dozens of newly discovered (and thoroughly creepy) vintage photographs, this new ad-venture will delight adults, teens, and anyone who relishes an adventure in the shadows.

RANSOM RIGGS is the #1 New York Times best-selling author of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. He is a graduate of the University of Southern California film school and is a writer for mentalfloss.com. He lives in Los Angeles.

Philadelphia. The late 1870s. A city of cobblestone sidewalks and horse-drawn carriages. Home to the famous anatomist and surgeon Dr. Spencer Black. The son of a “resurrectionist” (aka grave robber), Dr. Black studied at Philadelphia’s esteemed Academy of Medicine, where he develops an unconventional hypothesis: What if the world’s most celebrated mythological beasts—mermaids, minotaurs, and satyrs—were in fact the evolutionary ancestors of humankind?

The Resurrectionist offers two extraordinary books in one. The first is a fictional biography of Dr. Spencer Black, from his humble beginnings to the mysterious disappearance at the end of his life. The second book is Black’s magnum opus: The Codex Extinct Animalia, a Gray’s Anatomy for mythological beasts—dragons, centaurs, Pegasus, Cerberus—all rendered in meticulously detailed black-and-white anatomical illustra-tions. You need only look at these images to realize they are the work of a madman. The Resurrectionist tells his story.

E. B. HUDSPETH is an artist and author living in New Jersey. This is his first book.

Untitled Last Policeman Sequel

Set three months before the deadly asteroid 2011GV1 is due to hit Earth, this Last Policeman sequel chronicles the further adventures of Hank Palace. The Concord Police Department is now operating under the auspices of the U.S. Justice Department, and Hank is out of a job—until he’s hired by a busi-ness tycoon to help find the man’s estranged son. Hank’s search leads him to a visibly collapsing East Coast landscape where anti-immigrant militia patrol the shores, fending off droves of people fleeing the “impact zone” of the asteroid.

And it isn’t long before Hank’s missing-person case turns into a murder investigation. But the Last Policeman sequel asks questions well beyond “whodunit.” What do we as human beings owe to one another? And what does it mean to be civilized when civilization is collapsing all around you?

BEN H. WINTERS is a New York Times best-selling author and an Edgar Award nominee. He lives in Indianapolis, Indiana.

You were terrified by Professor Gargoyle. You were repulsed by The Slither Sisters. But nothing can prepare you for the madness and mayhem of Teacher’s Pest—volume three of Tales from Lovecraft Middle School!

Young Howard Mergler appears to be the very model of a teacher’s pet—he earns straight A’s, dresses in bow ties, and even chairs the school Handwriting Club. But Robert Arthur knows that Howard’s angel face and chubby cheeks are part of a sinister disguise; in truth, he’s a hideous fly-faced monster bent on destroying the school!

Teacher’s Pest continues the adventures of Robert, Glenn, Karina, Pip and Squeak, all of their friends, and all of their monstrous enemies. And once again, of course, the book will have a jaw-dropping lenticular cover. You won’t believe your eyes!

CHARLES GILMAN is the author of Professor Gargoyle and The Slither Sisters. He is rumored to live near Philadelphia.

A World of 99.4% Pure Imagination (and 0.6% Evil Genius)

Welcome to Planet Quirk! We’d take you to our leader, but on any given day you’ll find us debating whether that’s James T. Kirk, Buffy Summers, Dread Cthulhu, or Colonial President Laura Roslin. So—if you like to geek out over any kind of sci-horror-fantasy-book-game-film-comics fandom at all, just pull up a captain’s chair and stay as long as you like. (It’s cool; we know this guy with a machine that can get you home again before you left in the first place…)
