Preview New SF Novel The Adjacent From Titan By Christopher Priest

Multi-award winning science fiction author Christopher Priest (The Prestige) has two new novels coming out from Titan this month. The first, The Adjacent, debuted earlier this week and Titan have been kind enough to provide you book-junkies with an excerpt from the novel. Look out for his second novel this month, The Islanders, too.

But first, here's a description of the novel:

In the near future, Tibor Tarent, a freelance photographer, is recalled from Anatolia to Britain when his wife, an aid worker, is killed—annihilated by a terrifying weapon that reduces its target to a triangular patch of scorched earth. A century earlier, Tommy Trent, a stage magician, is sent to the Western Front on a secret mission to render British reconnaissance aircraft invisible to the enemy. Present day. A theoretical physicist develops a new method of diverting matter, a discovery with devastating consequences that will resonate through time.

Do you dare read on? Well, here we go with our excerpt, and note that if you click on each page individually, they will appear in larger size for single-page viewing.
