From the highly celebrated and award-winning authors Jeff Noon and Steve Beard comes Gogmagog, the first book in adventurous seafaring duology, perfect for fans of Mervyn Peake. A journey through the sixty-mile long ghost of a dragon. Meet Cady Meade, captain of the steam-launch, Juniper. In her heyday she carried people and goods on the river Nysis, from the thriving seaports of the estuary into Ludwich, the capital city. But that was years ago. Now she's drunk, holed up in a rundown seaside resort, telling her bawdy tales for shots of rum. All this changes, when two strangers seek her out, asking for transport: a young girl, very ill, and in grave danger, and an artificial being of singular character with secrets hidden inside his crystal skull. But the Nysis is unlike any other river. Few can navigate its channels, whirlpools and sandbanks; few know of the ravenous creatures that lurk beneath the surface. And Cady's glory days are well behind her now…
JEFF NOON is an award-winning British novelist, short story writer and playwright. He won the Arthur C. Clarke Award for his debut novel Vurt, the John W Campbell award for Best New Writer, a Tinniswood Award for innovation in radio drama, and the Mobil prize for playwriting. He was trained in the visual arts, and was active on the punk scene before starting to write plays. His John Nyquist novels for Angry Robot, beginning with A Man of Shadows, combine science fiction and the mystery genre. STEVE BEARD is an art writer and speculative fiction author. Bruce Sterling calls him "a thorny weed in the parking lot of postmodernity". An extract from his cult 1990s novel Digital Leatherette will appear in The Big Book of Cyberpunk and his collection of Borgesian short stories Pop Heresiarchs is forthcoming.
