    The Great When

    When Dennis comes into possession of a book that shouldn't exist, a new chapter in his life begins and a different, alternate London reveals itself - and with it a cast of characters each more unlikely and fantastical than the last. Long London occupies precisely the same geographical space as our London ­- but it is a city built from dreamscapes and art, from fiction and nightmares. This is the London of penny dreadfuls and William Blake's dark woodcuts, colliding with Dennis' own time - that of a post-war capital, not long rebuilding itself from its own recent nightmare of war and bombing. This series will be a mad and magical A to Z of the greatest city on earth - with a tale of friendship, murder, betrayal and mischief and the very centre of the map...

    I hear a new world. Un nuovo mondo. Long London. Vol. 2

    Il tanto atteso secondo libro dell'emozionante pentalogia di Alan Moore vede Londra invasa dalle rivolte e dal rock'n'roll, mentre Dennis scopre che Grace si trova nella mistica e agghiacciante versione occulta della capitale inglese, il Grande Quando... È il 1958. Un'epoca segnata dal rock'n'roll, dalle proteste e dai cambiamenti... e Londra è costellata di pericoli. Dennis Knuckleyard è cresciuto e desidera lasciarsi alle spalle il Grande Quando più di ogni altra cosa al mondo. Per nove anni ha evitato persino di pensare alla magica versione oscura di Londra, riuscendo a sbarazzarsi anche dell'ultimo souvenir di quell'esperienza: una chiave di ferro che aveva segretamente portato con sé. Ma sebbene Dennis creda di aver chiuso con il Grande Quando, è quest'ultimo a non aver ancora finito con lui. La chiave, ora nelle mani di un povero stolto, si attiva evocando creature mitiche che portano scompiglio nella Londra di Dennis, il quale viene anche a sapere che Grace, per la quale aveva una cotta, ha fatto ritorno nel Grande Quando per indagare sugli strani avvenimenti che si stanno verificando in entrambe le città. Desideroso di proteggerla e di riportare Londra alla normalità, decide di seguirla nell'altra Londra. Ma una volta tornato tra le sue grinfie, andarsene non sarà un'impresa facile. Tocca a Grace lottare per ristabilire l'equilibrio... o finire col perdere ogni cosa.

    Ich höre eine neue Welt

    London im Jahr 1959: Ein Gewitter zieht auf über der Hauptstadt. Dennis Knuckleyard, inzwischen freischaffender Journalist Ende zwanzig, ist es jahrelang gelungen, seine Abenteuer in den grässlichen Gefilden jenseits der Wirklichkeit zu vergessen. Doch jetzt holen sie ihn mit Macht ein. // Der uralte Schlüssel, den Dennis in Long London erhalten hat, verfügt offenbar über geheimnisvolle Kräfte, die sich seiner Kontrolle entziehen. Die Oberhäupter der magischen Metropole lassen ihm keine andere Wahl - er muss sich auf die Suche nach einem finsteren Widersacher begeben, der die Existenz der Stadt bedroht. Und ausgerechnet Grace Shilling, der noch immer sein Herz gehört, wird in die Sache hineingezogen und gerät in Gefahr ... // In Band 2 von LONG LONDON erweist sich Alan Moore abermals als Meister phantastischer Welten, schriller Figuren und überraschender Wendungen. Vor dem Lesen unbedingt anschnallen!

    From Hell

    'Ich habe keine Geschichte über Jack the Ripper geschrieben, ich habe über unsere Besessenheit von Jack the Ripper geschrieben.' Alan Moore1888 ermordet ein bis heute unbekannter Täter fünf Sexarbeiterinnen im Londoner Stadtteil Whitechapel. Es sind Morde von aufsehenerregender Grausamkeit: Die fünf Frauen aus ärmlichsten Verhältnissen werden brutal verstümmelt. Die Identität des Mörders gibt ebenso wie seine Motive bis heute Anlass für Spekulationen - das Pseudoym jedoch, unter dem er bekannt wurde, wirkt vom ersten Moment wie ein Sinnbild des Schreckens: Jack the Ripper.FROM HELL gilt zu Recht als Meisterwerk und Höhepunkt im Schaffen des großen englischen Autors Alan Moore. Selten waren Comics komplexer, sachkundiger und bei alledem: spannender! Reprodukt legt das monumentale Sittenbild des viktorianischen Zeitalters erstmals in einer handgeletterten Ausgabe vor.

    Das Flirren der Hoffnung

    Die phantastische Literatur ist ein Universum, das es immer wieder neu zu erkunden gilt. Als Leitsterne haben wir uns in diesem Almanach Becky Chambers mit einer Wayfarer-Erzählung und Aiki Mira mit einer brandneuen Story ausgesucht, umgeben von zahlreichen anderen hell leuchtenden Himmelskörpern. // Dieses Mal schreiben unter anderen begeistert: Matthias Fersterer über Ursula K. Le Guin, Kim Stanley Robinson über Gene Wolfe und Barbara Slawig über Rebecca Campbell. Joanna Russ plaudert mit Samuel R. Delany, und Elizabeth Hand führt ein Gespräch mit Kelly Link. Nicola Griffith fragt danach, wie schwer Hoffnung wiegt, Michael Moorcock erzählt uns von Weihnachten im London der 1940er Jahre, und Alan Moore berichtet von seiner fiktionalen Begegnung mit Arthur Machen. // All diese Stimmen lassen eine Vielfalt von Welten vor unseren Augen erscheinen - bestürzend mögliche und faszinierend unmögliche.
