<div>Literary spins on the science fiction, fantasy, and horror genres&mdash;from Karen Joy Fowler, Neil Gaiman, Jonathan Lethem, China Mi&eacute;ville, and many more. Over the past three decades, the most adventurous practitioners of the literary arts of science fiction, fantasy, and horror have been transforming those genres into something all but unrecognizable. In Conjunctions&rsquo; game-changing New Wave Fabulists issue, guest editor Peter Straub has put together an anthology of innovative literary reinventions of traditional &ldquo;pulp&rdquo; forms. Contributors range from Jonathan Lethem to Neil Gaiman, from John Crowley to Kelly Link, from Elizabeth Hand to China Mi&eacute;ville. Gary K. Wolfe and John Clute contribute essays on the ongoing evolution of genre, while the brilliant cartoonist Gahan Wilson has created the cover and original frontispieces for each story.</div>

Natural Causes

<div>&ldquo;Mi&eacute;ville, known for his genre-defying fantasy novels for adults, makes a splash with his picture book debut . . . a subversive delight.&rdquo; &mdash;School Library Journal Two sisters sit down one morning and begin describing all of the really gross things that were in the worst breakfast they ever had, until all they can picture is a table piled sky-high with the weirdest, yuckiest, slimiest, slickest, stinkiest breakfast possible. And then they have the best breakfast ever . . . almost. A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2016 A Mississippi Clarion-Ledger Bestseller &ldquo;This is a child&rsquo;s imagination come to life, where a good thing can be the greatest thing in existence and a minor inconvenience snowballs into the most horrendous, atrocious, appalling, not good, very bad meal you&rsquo;ve ever had.&rdquo; &mdash;San Francisco Book Review &ldquo;Mi&eacute;ville and Smith&rsquo;s dialogue is fantastic: witty, smart, with great rhythm that doesn&rsquo;t sacrifice artful turns of phrase to reach for an internal rhyme . . . A brilliant, original, infinitely rereadable book that can sit alongside Sendak and Dahl.&rdquo; &mdash;Kirkus Reviews (starred review) &ldquo;Mi&eacute;ville lets it rip in this stomping, howling rant about a bad meal of legendary proportions.&rdquo; &mdash;Publishers Weekly &ldquo;Imaginative and fun, The Worst Breakfast is perfect for any picky eater out there. A rhyming scheme and inventive text kept up the giggles and the pace.&rdquo; &mdash;100 Pages a Day &ldquo;Deftly written by the exceptionally talented China Mi&eacute;ville and shockingly but gifted illustrated by Zak Smith, The Worst Breakfast is a unique picture book that will be enduringly popular . . . Very highly recommended.&rdquo; &mdash;Midwest Book Review Publishers Note: This is the flowable text e-book edition, optimized for e-ink readers that cannot support fixed layout e-books. If you have a tablet or software that can support fixed format e-books, please search for The Worst Breakfast: Fixed Layout Edition.
