James Enge has graced the pages of Black Gate, Flashing Swords, and Every Day Fiction with his tales of the crooked, cantankerous, bibulous wizard named Morlock Ambrosious. I even had the privilege of sharing the table of contents with Enge in The Return of the Sword. I simply love his Morlock stories. And now there will be more, much more.
Enge recently sold two Morlock novels to Pyr Books, a rapidly rising publisher of science fiction and fantasy with works from authors like Michael Moorcock, Mike Resnick, Charles Coleman Finlay, Joe Abercrombie, Alan Dean Foster, Gardner Dozois, and Jack Dann, among others. According to the SFScope announcement, the first Morlock installment is slated for the first half of 2009, and I cannot wait.
