A Rolling Stone Best Music Book of 2021 “Thompson is a master showman . . . [Beeswing is] everything you’d hope a Richard Thompson autobiography would be . . . It’s both major and minor, dirge and ditty, light on its feet but packing a punch.” —The Wall Street Journal Now Featuring an Interview with Elvis Costello In this moving, immersive, and long-awaited memoir, beloved international music legend Richard Thompson recreates the spirit of his early years, where he found, and then lost, and then found his way again. Considered one of the top twenty guitarists of all time, Thompson also belongs in the songwriting pantheon alongside Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, and Randy Newman. Here the British folk musician takes us back to the late 1960s, a period of great change and creativity for both him and the world at large. During the pivotal years of 1967 to 1975, just as he was discovering his passion for music, he formed the band Fairport Convention with some schoolmates and helped establish the genre of British folk rock. It was a thrilling period of massive tours, where Thompson was on the road in both the UK and the US, crossing paths with the likes of Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and Jimi Hendrix, as well as a time of heady and explosive creativity for Thompson, who wrote some of his most famous songs during this time. But as Thompson reveals, those eight years were also marked by upheaval and tragedy. Honest, moving, and compelling, Beeswing vividly captures the life of a remarkable man and musician during a period of artistic intensity, in a world on the cusp of change. “An absorbing, witty, often deliciously biting read, as all rock memoirs should be.” —Los Angeles Review of Books

Publisher Jason Goodman and Editor Jeff Rovin present the return of THRILLING ADVENTURE STORIES! Published in 1975, the two issues of this Atlas/Seaboard comic magazine featured multi-genre excitement ranging from barbaric prehistory to the dystopic future, from feudal Japan to wartime Europe. Atlas Originals is proud to continue that tradition with four tales: TARGITT 2021 by Richard S. Meyers, starring the two-fisted crimebuster, his associate Man-Stalker...and a villainess whose arrival will shock and delight! BOG BEAST by John Albano and Badia Romero, a super-science tale originally created in 1975 for the Atlas/Seaboard horror comic WEIRD TALES OF THE MACABRE and unpublished on these shores until now. BONUS: the mock-up of that unused issue #3 cover featuring a Jeff Jones painting. SECOND COMING by Sam Rovin, a companion piece to the WRECAGE saga featuring the climactic return of one of the first and greatest Atlas/Seaboard superheroes. MAGIC TO-DO by Richard H. Levey starring Doctor Klutz, a character originally conceived as the companion to a chic and plucky funny book figure. The semi-hero was shelved when the line folded but is back to solve an ages-old mystery involving one of the darkest Atlas/Seaboard characters.
The author, a veteran police officer and training instructor, explores cases of police fatalities to determine the most common contributory procedural errors. Brooks calls these 'the deadly errors'. They are failure to maintain proficiency and care of equipment, improper search and use of handcuffs, failure to position oneself properly, and failure to watch suspects' hands. Failure to remain alert and awake, failure to wait for assistance, and preoccupation and apathy are also common dangers.
"Harsh and ingenious! High Rise is an intense and vivid bestiary, which lingers unsettlingly in the mind." —Martin Amis, New Statesman When a class war erupts inside a luxurious apartment block, modern elevators become violent battlegrounds and cocktail parties degenerate into marauding attacks on “enemy” floors. In this visionary tale, human society slips into violent reverse as once-peaceful residents, driven by primal urges, re-create a world ruled by the laws of the jungle.
