"Thrilling . . . one of the best Stephen King novels not written by
the master himself. . . . The setup promises furious action, and
Percy delivers, like [Richard] Matheson, like King. . . An awfully
impressive literary performance."--New York Times Book Review
"Masterful crafting . . . a horror story for our
times."--Minneapolis Star Tribune The Dark Net is real. An
anonymous and often criminal arena that exists in the secret far
reaches of the Web, some use it to manage Bitcoins, pirate movies
and music, or traffic in drugs and stolen goods. And now, an
ancient darkness is gathering there as well. This force is
threatening to spread virally into the real world unless it can be
stopped by members of a ragtag crew, including a twelve-year-old
who has been fitted with a high-tech visual prosthetic to combat
her blindness; a technophobic journalist; a one-time child
evangelist with an arsenal in his basement; and a hacker who
believes himself a soldier of the Internet. Set in present-day
Portland, The Dark Net is a cracked-mirror version of the digital
nightmare we already live in, a timely and wildly imaginative
techno-thriller about the evil that lurks in real and virtual
spaces, and the power of a united few to fight back. "This is
horror literature's bebop, bold, smart, confident in its capacity
to redefine its genre from the ground up. Read this book, but take
a firm grip on your hat before you start."--Peter Straub
"A werewolf epic. Can't stop thinking about it."--Stephen King

"[In THE NINTH METAL] debris from a comet drops a fabulously
valuable new metal on Northfall, MN., turning it into a bloody,
brawling boomtown. Great characters, fine writing, totally
engrossing." --Stephen King "Take one part dystopia, one part
sci-fi, two parts apocalypse, then ride them roughshod through a
bleak and bloody western, and it still wouldn't get close to what
Ben Percy does here, which is blow open the core of humanity's dark
heart." --Marlon James, Booker Prize award-winning author of Black
Leopard, Red Wolf "Whether you choose to think of him as the Elmore
Leonard of rural Minnesota or the Stephen King of Science Fiction,
Ben Percy--with his extraordinary and unrelenting eye--dishes up
humanity like some kind of otherworldly blue plate special, at once
deeply familiar and wildly new." --Margaret Stohl, #1 New York
Times best-selling author of the Caster Chronicles "When Benjamin
Percy publishes a novel, I have got to read that novel. The Ninth
Metal continues his streak of thrilling, incisive genre bending
goodness. It's a sci-fi novel, a crime novel and a super-hero
novel, too. Audacious and intelligent and exactly what I was dying
to read." --Victor LaValle, author of The Changeling IT BEGAN WITH
A COMET... At first, people gazed in wonder at the radiant tear in
the sky. A year later, the celestial marvel became a planetary
crisis when Earth spun through the comet's debris field and the sky
rained fire. The town of Northfall, Minnesota will never be the
same. Meteors cratered hardwood forests and annihilated homes, and
among the wreckage a new metal was discovered. This "omnimetal" has
properties that make it world-changing as an energy source...and a
weapon. John Frontier--the troubled scion of an iron-ore dynasty in
Northfall--returns for his sister's wedding to find his family
embroiled in a cutthroat war to control mineral rights and mining
operations. His father rightly suspects foreign leaders and
competing corporations of sabotage, but the greatest threat to his
legacy might be the US government. Physicist Victoria Lennon was
recruited by the Department of Defense to research omnimetal, but
she finds herself trapped in a laboratory of nightmares. And across
town, a rookie cop is investigating a murder that puts her own life
in the crosshairs. She will have to compromise her moral code to
bring justice to this now lawless community. In this gut-punch of a
novel, the first in his Comet Cycle, Ben Percy lays bare how a
modern-day goldrush has turned the middle of nowhere into the
center of everything, and how one family--the Frontiers--hopes to
control it all.

This Side of the Divide: New Lore of the American West is the
second entry in the Divide anthology series attempting to capture
the newness, vastness, territoriality, and sense of transience
alive in the American West. In this collection legends, myths,
tales, omens, folk horror, and science fiction explore the
fantastical, the apocalyptic, the bizarre, the unknown, and the
apocryphal origins and conclusions of life on the occidental side
of the Continental Divide. In this collection, after the ‘what
is’ comes the ‘what will be’, as acclaimed authors and
emerging voices weave tales that push the boundaries of
imagination: Ken Liu takes us to the frontiers of America and China
in a stark tale of perseverance; Kate Bernheimer immerses us in the
fairytale lands of modern celebrity; Benjamin Percy takes us
hunting for deer and connection in eastern Oregon; Yuri Herrera
grants us insight on our future overlords; Tessa Fontaine places us
in-between with a monster and a question; Dominique Dickey chases
familiar ghosts; and Willy Vlautin takes us on the wild ride that
is a winning streak. Accompanied by a foreword from This Side of
the Divide alum, and author of The Forbidden City, Vanessa Hua,
these twenty-five pieces of new lore excavate the beauty, the
uncertainty, the longing, the bitter interactions and stark truths;
the strong people and vivid places that have shaped, and will
continue to shape the West until the end of days.
