Now available to preorder are The Last Angel by Natasha Rhodes and Into the Nightside by Simon R Green.
THE LAST ANGEL
An angel is found murdered on the streets of Sunset Boulevard. To the media it’s the biggest story ever. To the Hunters, an underground monster-fighting hit-squad, it’s a case of ‘whodunnit’. To Kayla Steele, their newest member, it means a last chance to bring her murdered fiancé back from the dead, and to others it is the means to destroy the human race.
INTO THE NIGHTSIDE
It’s always night in the Nightside. It’s always three o’clock in the morning, and the dawn never comes. People are always coming and going, drawn by needs that dare not speak their names, searching for pleasures and services unforgivable in the sane, daylight world. You can buy or sell anything in the Nightside, and no one asks questions. No one cares.

Critically acclaimed author James Lovegrove will write an epic new science fiction novel, The Age of Ra, for Solaris Books.
In The Age of Ra, the ancient Egyptian gods have defeated all the other pantheons and claimed dominion over the Earth. The world is divided into warring factions, each under the aegis of a different deity. Lt. David Westwynter, a British soldier, stumbles into Freegypt, the only place on the planet to have remained independent of the gods’ influence. There, he encounters the followers of a humanist leader known as the Lightbringer, who has vowed to rid mankind of the shackles of divine oppression. David and the Lightbringer have a personal connection. And there is far more to this freedom fighter than it seems, even as he drags the world towards one final, apocalyptic battle.
