Irvine, Alexander PICTURES FROM AN EXPEDITION
USA Night Shade Books 2006 159780049X / 9781597800495 First Edition Private Press Trade Paperback Fine
From Alexander C. Irvine, Locus Award-winning author of A Scattering of Jades, The Narrows, and One King, One Soldier, comes Pictures from an Expedition, an astonishing new collection of thirteen fascinating fantasy and science fiction stories, including the World Fantasy Award-nominated "Gus", "Dreams of Biting the Mailman" and the all-new tale of identity crisis and uncertainty, "Clownfish". With tales set in picturesque locales as varied as the New York artists loft in "The Lorelei" the rural Kentucky caverns and riverbanks in "Green River Chantey", the mystical WWII factory lines in "The Golems of Detroit", the colonized alien worlds in "Volunteers", and the deadly atmosphere of Neptune in "Shepherded by Galatea", Pictures from an Expedition demonstrates Irvines sublime mastery of evocative detail, and stunning storytelling abilities. Whether exploring the intersection of suburban terror and fable in "For Now Its Eight OClock" the effect of scandal and media obsession on an ill-fated Mars mission in "Pictures from an Expedition", or dark dystopian futures in "The Uterus Garden" and "Peter Skilling", Alexander C. Irvines crisp, startling, genre-bending prose makes Pictures from an Expedition a captivating, compelling read that, once started, is impossible to put down. "Scene by scene and setting by setting, Alexander Irvine has rapidly emerged as one of the most accomplished new fantasists of the last several years." - Gary K. Wolfe, Locus Magazine. "Irvine embraces the chaos of the present with an unbridled enthusiasm, and he distills it into intoxicating prose liquor" - Rick Kleffel, The Agony Column. Contents: The Lorelei / Green River Chantey / The Fall At Shangha / The Golems Of Detroit / For Now Its Eight OClock / Clownfish / Gus Dreams Of Biting The Mailman / Pictures From an Expedition / Reformation / The Uterus Garden Volunteers / Peter Skilling / Shepherded By Galatea. Artwork by Patrick Arrasmith.

Irvine, Alexander C. The Life of Riley
USA Subterranean Press 2005 1596060131 / 9781596060135 First Edition Private Press Hard Cover Fine Fine
OUT OF PRINT. 149pp. America heading into the mid-21st century: devastated by rising oceans and natural disasters fracturing along religious lines, puzzled and resentful of the alien Bettys who have inserted themselves into the government. Gabriel Riley fled his fundamentalist upbringing, entering the military and eventually the guard service protecting a tent city of refugees on the South Lawn of the White House. When violence explodes in the tent city, Riley finds himself fleeing into the arms of an underground network resisting the Bettys' murky plans -- from there into a splinter group that has infiltrated the resistance. His mother always told him he was the Second Coming of Christ, and the Bettys seem to be thinking along the same lines -- although for much different reasons. In the end, carried along by events beyond his understanding, Riley embraces the destiny thrust upon him. Or does he? Here are the last days of Gabriel Riley, told by the three people (and one Betty) who bore witness. A brand new 40,000 word science fiction novel by the author of A Scattering of Jades and One King, One Soldier.
