Floaters, a new novella by Garrett Boatman, released through Crystal Lake Publishing, coming 10 September

With the beleaguered police and the Queen’s army battling twin plagues—human and inhuman—London’s criminal youth gangs join forces to save their city. Will Tagget, leader of the Lambeth Lads, together with his enemies Bill Drummond of the Drury Lane Gang, bull-necked George Fish of the Elephant and Castle Gang, shillelagh-wielding Dirk Bogart of the New Cut Gang, Quincy Bird of City Road, along with their female counterparts—Lambeth Kate, Queen Jane, New Cut Beth, Razor Lil and Dirty Deidre—set out on an adventure the telling of which might earn a man a lifetime of free drinks. If he lives to tell it. Will these violent gangs put aside their rivalries long enough to get the job done? Pre-order your copy in eBook, with the paperback soon to follow, here.

  1. Thank you so much for listing my new release Floaters from Crystal Lake Publishing. Curtis Lawson recently interviewed me on his Wyrd Transmissions Podcast and I’ll be reading and taking questions on Jim Chambers’ Galactic Terrors November 11.
