THE TRUE HISTORY OF THE STRANGE BRIGADE REVEALED!
2nd August 2017
Abaddon Books, Rebellion Publishing’s cutting-edge imprint for smart and subversive fiction, is excited to announce The True History of the Strange Brigade – an anthology fiction based on the highly anticipated pre-war adventure video game.
Bringing together rising stars Cassandra Khaw, Gaie Sebold, Tauriq Moosa, Guy Adams and Jonathan L. Howard, The True History of the Strange Brigade delves into the hidden origins of some of the Brigade’s finest, giving gamers and readers alike a unique opportunity to understand and engage with the characters.
Abaddon Editor-in-Chief David Moore had this to say about the anthology:
“Working for a publishing house that’s also a video games studio is an extraordinary opportunity. When we started to see the concept art for Strange Brigade go up on the wall, I jumped on it. It’s a fun, engaging game, and the chance to get in at the ground floor – not just to tell the stories of the Brigade, but in small part to help shape the game itself – is amazing.”
Contributing authors commented:
“If ever there was a brigade I would happily join, it’s a Strange one. The world and the characters of the Strange Brigade are rich, fun and right up my street.” – Guy Adams
“I was delighted to have the chance to contribute to something that feels so engaging and quirky. I loved writing Nalangu, and only hope other people enjoy her as much as I did.” – Gaie Sebold
“I hope readers and players have as much fun as I did within the universe of the Strange Brigade. The world definitely needs more Lady Websters & Co fighting ghoulish monsters with bad hair that threaten the world with ridiculous powers.” – Tauriq Moosa
“*is running around in circles, squeaking in joy*” – Cass Khaw
“CANNOT TALK AT PRESENT STOP FIGHTING ELDRITCH HORRORS STOP SEND CHOCOLATE STOP KINDEST REGARDS TO AUNT ELSA STOP PLEASE DO NOT FORGET THE CHOCOLATE STOP ALSO AMMUNITION STOP” – Jonathan L. Howard
The True History of the Strange Brigade is out in January 2018. Read on for more about the book and click on the links below to pre-order your copy!
