UK publisher Flame Tree (@flametreepress) has acquired world rights to 3 “Afro-surreal” books by Eugen Bacon (@EugenBacon). The titles acquired are murder mystery novella Jintu, to be published in September 2027; Betwixt, a collection of Afro-irreal short stories, for publication in May 2028; and Children of the Storm: Sauútiverse Stories, featuring “genre-bending stories set in the Afrocentric Sauútiverse”, for publication in September 2028. An African Australian author, Bacon has been awarded the Kate Wilhelm Solstice Award for significant contributions to science fiction and fantasy writing. She is a Solstice, British Fantasy, Ignyte, Locus and Foreword Indies Award winner and has been a finalist for awards including the World Fantasy, Shirley Jackson, Aurealis, Philip K Dick, Victorian Premier’s Literary Awards and Nommo Awards for speculative fiction by Africans. In 2024, Bacon was named the University of Tasmania Hedberg Writer-in-Residence. “Some writing demands a larger global stage and we see this in Eugen’s work,” said Flame Tree publisher Nick Wells. “She brings richness and newness to the literary landscape, encapsulating her hybridity as an African who is also Australian.” Said the author: “I have an immense affection for the Flame Tree family. Nick Wells has fostered a culture that genuinely treasures authors within an environment of trust and mutual respect. This phenomenal agreement – signed directly with a trusted publisher – is a powerful testament to the agility and reach of modern global publishing alliances.” Flame Tree plans to publish the 3 titles in 2027 and 2028.

COVER REVEAL Jonasi Gomora is handsome, successful and irresistible. He is also a husband who refuses to belong to just one woman. As his marriage to Joyce unravels and other women enter his life, love gives way to rivalry, betrayal and a battle for what each woman believes

Two exciting announcements for THE LIBRARY OF THE UNDEAD! The anthology proudly welcomes "Fire Fall on Them" by the wonderful @EugenBacon, and "Learning to Fly" by @gord_rollo (the original would not have existed without him, and so herein he will forever be entombed).
