Bandersnatch

From the Introduction: Lewis Carroll named a curious creature the Bandersnatch in his dreamlike Jabberwocky and The Hunting of the Snark poems. He didn’t describe many physical details of the phantasmagorical creature. He did, however, give the following warning: “shun the frumious Bandersnatch.”

"It may or may not be frumious, but this original anthology from Tremblay (City Pier: Above & Below) and Wallace (Jabberwocky 2) positively revels in the "strange, dark, and unpredictable...For those who dig that funky groove, this anthology more than delivers what it promises." -Publisher's Weekly

City Pier: Above And Below

ABOVE: City is sprawling, technocratic, corrupt, and built hundreds of feet above a bay, resting upon the giant wooden shoulders of Pier.

BELOW: Pier is a seemingly endless maze of stripped sequoia trees with trunks as thick as buildings, branches molded into a complex lattice of support beams and struts.

ABOVE and BELOW: The people. Weapons dealers and hired heavies with major Daddy-issues; a Pier-deported homeless man and a pistol packing priest trying to survive with each other and their terrible secrets; a librarian haunted by City's violent history, his family, and by Balloons; a flawed and shattered woman who wants to escape City no matter the cost. Their lives are a part of each other. Their lives are a part of City Pier.

"Paul Tremblay's City Pier milieu is hardboiled future noir, funky and fun, like a weird telepod accident blending Mickey Spillane and Philip K. Dick." -Jeffrey Thomas
