DMR Books to Release Tanith Lee's Uncollected Flat Earth Stories

Few authors are both prolific and talented as Tanith Lee. Out of her many fantasy series, her “Tales from the Flat Earth,” which can be compared to both Clark Ashton Smith’s Zothique and The Arabian Nights, is arguably her most highly regarded. Over the course of a decade, four novels plus one short story collection were published. Lee continued to write stories in the setting, with the intention to release another short story collection entitled The Earth is Flat. Sadly, she only completed five stories before her untimely passing in 2015.

All five uncollected Flat Earth stories will appear in the upcoming DMR Books release, The Earth is Flat: Tales from the Flat Earth and Elsewhere. As there aren’t enough Flat Earth stories to fill a book, eleven other tales from Tanith’s catalog that showcase her talent for crafting spellbinding tales of heroic warriors, enigmatic magicians, and strange deities will be included as well.

The Earth is Flat will be released in the first quarter of 2023 in trade paperback and digital formats. More details will be announced in the near future.

DMR Books’ first Tanith Lee collection, The Empress of Dreams, is still available.
