Some of you may recall we tweeted about this one last summer when we were trying to find Margaret O'Donnell's estate. Trying to find a Margaret O'Donnell in Ireland was like finding a needle in a haystack, but the detectives of the Twitterverse came through & helped us trace her!

New preorder! A long-lost feminist dystopian novel in which women are either child breeders or menial drudges, an important rediscovery & predecessor of The Handmaid's Tale, Margaret O'Donnell's THE BEEHIVE (1980), published in the U.S. for the 1st time. valancourtbooks.com/the-beehive-19…

Testing something new, where we'll occasionally offer a new release for a bargain price of $12 in the hope readers will take a chance on a book they might otherwise overlook. The first is a terrific gay-themed mystery, Michael Nelson's FEAR NO MORE (1989): valancourtbooks.com/fear-no-more-1…

Website orders of this one should be shipping early, in about a week. A delightful mixture of humor and horror, featuring cover art by the legendary Charles Addams. Out of print for over 50 years, now in paperback for the first time: valancourtbooks.com/the-visitors-1…

Fellow horror fiction fans: I highly recommend this collection of stories by Italian author Luigi Musolino (translated by James Jenkins)

When a book gets an introduction by Brian Evenson you know it’s good.

Contract just signed for a weird little book we've been trying to publish since 2013, a novel that won an award for best British novel of 1968 (Neglected Books will probably know what it is, shh!) Looking forward to sharing details on all the exciting stuff we're signing soon!

Only one day left until the moneygrubbing fat cats who run this place hike the price back up on these. Just $2.99 worldwide through tomorrow on Kindle, grab 'em while you can!

The Servant is available from Valancourt both in its 20th Century Classic series and as an excellent audiobook narrated by Richard Turner.

When we posted this for preorder yesterday we neglected to mention the illustration & design are by Roderick Brydon, doing his first Valancourt cover. We hope you like it! (And if you don't, feel free not to comment.) Check out the book here: valancourtbooks.com/fear-no-more-1…

Celia Dale’s A HELPING HAND is a tremendous book!

An icily compelling tale of greed and deception, stealthily executed amidst carefully orchestrated conversations and endless cups of tea.

If you need further convincing, here’s my review:

New preorder! This book was so good I read it in a single sitting. Gay author Michael Nelson's FEAR NO MORE (1989) tells of a journalist's quest to unravel the mysterious life & death of a young WWII British soldier & the cat he loved. Just $12 thru 5/31! valancourtbooks.com/fear-no-more-1…

Re: the previous tweet, we're offering a preorder special of just $12 for the paperback because we think this is a great book and we want as many people as possible to read it!

When Daunt Books reprinted Celia Dale's books in the UK it was a nationwide phenomenon. When we republished them here in the US, the response was somewhat more muted. We wish people would give these a shot, they're truly chilling novels of domestic terror: valancourtbooks.com/a-helping-hand…

We had seven people take advantage of our new Mystery Box deal yesterday. It's a good deal: 3 great books for the price of 2, plus it's fun because you never know what you might end up with (though you know it'll be good!) valancourtbooks.com/deals.html

Reminder that these two books are $2.99 on Kindle worldwide, only through the end of the month. Grab one or both while they're cheap!
