  • James R. Benn - Blood Alone.  A Billy Boyle mystery.
  • Alan Brennert - Time and Chance.  Fantasy.
  • Gerald Brittle - The Devil in Connecticut.  Yeah, this is supposedly non-fiction, but anything claiming demonic possessions are true are firmly rooted in non-non-fiction, it seems to me.
  • Fredric Brown - The Proofreaders' Page and Other Uncollected Items.  Edited by Phil Stevensen-Payne.  Non-fiction, mainly.  Includes articles from trade journals, as well as stories, poems, non-fiction, and whatnot that have not been collected before.  Interesting stuff and even some fascinating stuff.  I had not realized that Dennis McMillan's version of The Office that he published in 1998 was an early draft of the novel and considerably different from the Dutton version I had read -- thus another book gets added to my wish list.  Ah, me.
  • John Burke - The Hammer Horror Film Omnibus.  Movie tie-in.  Novelization of four Hammer films:  The Gorgon, The Curse of Frankenstein, The Revenge of Frankenstein, and The Curse of the Mummy's Tomb.
  • Gwendoline Butler - Coffin on the Water.  Mystery.
  • John Carnell, editor - The Best from New Worlds Science Fiction.  The first (1955) anthology from the legendary British SF magazine.  Carnell started New Worlds in 1946 but it went belly-up after three issues.  He rebooted the magazine in 1949 and New Worlds went on to become the major SF magazine in England and (under the later editorship of Michael Moorcock) helped usher in the "new Wave" of the 1960s and 70s.  Nine stories.
