New Sci Fi (SyFy?) book publisher Angry Robot (http://Marc Gascoigne) sends along a Press Release announcing their first four launch titles!

Angry Robot is HarperCollins’ new imprint devoted to all that’s new in SF, F and WTF?! Publishing worldwide, as books, eBooks and downloadable audio, its mission is to bring a contemporary edge to traditional genre fiction.

Angry Robot launches in the UK in July 2009, and in the US and the rest of the world from September. Ebook editions will be available worldwide from July. Its first titles are a mix of genres, from street smart neat-future thriller to ultra-dark horror to wild modern fantasy. Its authors, too, fulfil its mission: two men and two women, two new writers and two established, and from all corners of the globe – in this case the USA, Fiji and South Africa.

Well I do enjoy me some Black Library books, especially anything written by Dan Abnett. Hope these are decent.

Was filing this story in the Meh File when I read that final bit about the editor-in-chief. Might have to check some of this stuff out. Enjoyed every WH40k book I've read so far.
