MacMillan Picador brings us these beautiful new editions of the three original full-length Ambergris books, now known as The Ambergris Trilogy, by Jeff VanderMeer, including the original opus, City of Saints and Madmen; the genre-defying tour de force, Shriek: An Afterword; and one of the most unusual and moving police procedurals taking place in the middle of a fungal revolution you will ever read, Finch.
Enter a new world, strange and terrifying and sometimes wonderful. Like a trip into VanderMeer's Area X, some of Ambergris, "city of elegance and squallor," will cling to you when you emerge. Also including in the list the hardcover version of the Amergris trilogy. Also look for our full list of Jeff VanderMeer books and our list of VanderMeer-edited anthologies.

City of Saints and Madmen
Jeff VanderMeer
$21.00 $19.53The paperback reissue of the cult classic City of Saints and Madmen. In this reinvention of the literature of the fantastic, you hold in your hands an invitation to a place unlike any you’ve ever visited, an invitation delivered by one of our most audacious and astonishing literary magicians. "City of Saints and Madmen packs so much literary and emotional matter into the confines of one city...VanderMeer keeps going deeper, and finding new forms of gold."--Locus Magazine on City of Saints and Madmen

Shriek: An Afterword
Jeff VanderMeer
$18.00 $16.74The paperback reissue of Shriek: An Afterword, an epic yet personal look at several decades of life, love, and death in the imaginary city of Ambergris. "Like some delicious mash-up of H.P. Lovecraft, Mervyn Peake, and L. Frank Baum, but with his own verbal dexterity and perverse ingenuity...[An] affecting narrative about love, art, sibling rivalry, commerce, history, and some really nasty 'shrooms." --Paul Di Filippo, Washington Post

Finch
Jeff VanderMeer
$18.00 $16.74The paperback reissue of the cult classic Finch. "The city of Ambergris is half ruined, rotten, its population controlled by narcotics, internment camps, and acts of terror. But its new masters want this case closed, urgently. Detective John Finch has just one week to solve it or be sent to the camps. With no ID for the victims, no clues, no leads, and precious little hope, Finch’s fate hangs in the balance."

Ambergris: City of Saints and Madmen; Shriek: An Afterword; Finch
Jeff VanderMeer
$35.00 $32.55A hardcover compilation of all three books in the Ambergris Trilogy. "Somewhere at the intersection of pulp and surrealism, drawing on the very best of both traditions, is Jeff VanderMeer's Ambergris. Unsettling, erudite, and shot through with unexpected humor...Ambergris is one of my favourite haunts in fiction" --China Mieville on City of Saints and Madmen
