[A pamphlet? -- DMS] THE URTH OF THE NEW SUN: Coda to THE BOOK OF THE NEW SUN. To appear in hardcover from Tor, Fall 1987. THERE ARE DOORS: A contemporary fantasy about a department store clerk who falls in love with a goddess from an alternate universe and finds himself drawn into that universe, where the goddess manifests herself as a lawyer, a movie star, and a high-tech doll. To appear in hardcover from Tor, Fall 1988. SOLDIER OF ARETE: Sequel to SOLDIER OF THE MIST. To appear in hardcover from Tor, Fall 1989.
