The Magic Noir Bundle - Curated by Simon Kewin:

What happens when the bad guy that lurks in the shadows of the street actually is one of the shadows?

Welcome to a collection of works that fall under the magic noir umbrella: gritty worlds full of supernatural danger and mystery. And rain. Quite a bit of rain. These are stories about investigators solving mysteries, uncovering dark truths and facing impossible odds. Here you'll find worlds where magic works, but where it isn't always the sparkly, easy sort of sorcery that sets everything conveniently right.

SELECTED REVIEWS

The Inside Story of the British Bureau for the Arcane by Phil Parker

"The Inside Story of the British Bureau for the Arcane is a fascinating and riveting blend of Fantasy and Spy Thriller. If I could describe it in one sentence it'd be: the Fantasy version of Men in Black.I really enjoyed this book. The story was exciting and unpredictable. Right up to the end, I had no idea what it was building to and I thoroughly loved it. Fantastic world building and excellent, engaging characters. Phil Parker has knocked it out of the park again!"

– Damien Larkin, award winning author

Mushroom Blues by Adrian M. Gibson

"A fascinating merging of oppressive imperialism and disconcerting alienation."

– Adrian Tchaikovsky, award-winning author of Children of Time, Alien Clay & Shards of Earth

Kalanon's Rising by Darian Smith

"A wonderfully engaging fantasy whodunnit with high stakes and fun magic"

– Fantasy Book Review

Resurrection Men by David Craig

"What a great find this was! ... The writing is gorgeous – gothic and tonal and perfectly suited to the tale. Hunt and Foley are a grand team, the perfect Mulder-Scully mix of skepticism and belief and a great foil for each other and the mysteries they keep finding themselves enmeshed in."

– Jill-Elizabeth

The Hallows by H.L. Tinsley

"The Hallows is a magnificent, witty, bizarre and heart-breaking read in a world you won't want to leave. Just like the drug-addicted denizens of this remarkable story, I never wanted to come down."

– Ed Crocker, author of Lightfall

Legacy of the Brightwash by Krystle Matar

"Legacy of the Brightwash is a grounded, realistic, and surprisingly dark book, but it's a book with a fundamentally moral lead that keeps the darkness from feeling gratuitous."

– Grimdark Magazine

Poison and Power by M. Patrick Duggan

"At first I was a tiny bit confused about whether I was reading a mystery novel, a regency novel, a fantasy novel, or a horror novel. Then I simply let go and took the ride for what it was. Great fun! A genre mashup in the best, most unexpected way."

– Reader review

Madame Antic's Hotel Grotesque by Milo James Fowler

"A twisting labyrinth of shifting realities, a fast-moving adventure merging the ideas of Philip K. Dick and David Cronenberg. Highly Recommended."

– Deborah Walker, author of Future Tales 2100

Shadow of a Dead God by Patrick Samphire

"Shadow of a Dead God contains the snarky, disillusioned, diamond-in-the-rough, down-at-heels, determined and fiercely loyal mage-detective your TBR desperately needs!"

– Katrina Middelburg, Read. Ruminate. Write.

Kept From Cages by Phil Williams

"I was impressed by the quality of the writing and drawn rapidly into the story...an easy, entertaining read."

– Mark Lawrence, international bestselling author

The Eye Collectors by Simon Kewin

"I really enjoyed the story and the fact that it's not all black and white – it felt a bit more realistic than some stories that have very clearly defined good and bad characters. I'll be keeping an eye out for future books in the Office of the Witchfinder General series – if you enjoyed Ben Aaronovitch's Rivers of London series or the Dresden Files, then you'll enjoy this one. Definitely one to look out for!"

– Matthew Johns, British Fantasy Society

New York Minute by Stephen Aryan

"It's an expertly-crafted, fast paced gangster thriller, with the added intrigue of a world both strangely familiar and utterly different as a backdrop."

– James Oswald, Sunday Times Bestselling Author of The Inspector McLean novels
