ALSO OUT

ans of et al should be tickled by the premise of horror maven/cravat revivalist Kim Newman’s latest, (out now, Titan). Set in the ’30s, (out now, Sphere) should do the trick. It collects ghostly tales by eight authors, including ’s Natasha Pulley. Chinese sci-fi anthology (13 November, Solaris) includes 13 stories, first published from 1991-2021, and now translated into English for the first time. Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton’s sometimes-fantastical anthology show gets an episode-by-episode breakdown in (out now, Hodder). Detailing every stage of production, it also includes behind-the-scenes photos and concept drawings. Meticulously annotated (you’ve never seen so many superscript numbers), (out now, White Lion) is the latest in an series of unofficial tributes by former editor Ian Nathan. Finally, we’d have loved to show you some of the no doubt gorgeous creature designs and costume concepts in (out now, Titan), but there was one of those embargoes where seeing the book before the on-sale date is punishable by death. Bah.
