BY TURNS SENSUOUS AND TERRIFYING - THE PERFECT INTRODUCTION TO VANDERMEER'S VIVIDLY IMAGINED WORLDS

In the city of Ambergris, a would-be suitor discovers a sunlit street can become a killing ground in the blink of an eye. An artist receives an invitation to a beheading and finds himself enchanted. And a patient in a mental institution is convinced he's imagined a city called Ambergris, invented its every last detail, and that he's really from a place called Chicago. Ambergris is a cruelly beautiful metropolis - a haven for artists and thieves, for composers and murderers. And once there, anything can happen.

These tales of Ambergris include the World Fantasy Award-winning novella, The Transformation of Martin Lake.

'Somewhere at the intersection of pulp and surrealism, drawing on the very best of both traditions, is Jeff VanderMeer's Ambergris'
CHINA MIÉVILLE

'Beautifully written, virtually hallucinatory work . . . enormously rewarding'
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

'VanderMeer keeps going deeper, and finding new forms of gold'
