It's an awe-inspiring survey of the history of French fantastique in all its forms... I've been saying for years, even though the French were responsible for starting it all, that there really has been no French tradition of the fantastic, but the completeness of this book is going to make me eat my words."

July 2023 (Black Coat Press) - KOBOR TIGAN'T by Christia Sylf adapted by Michael Shreve. Cover by Mike Hoffman. Foreword by Jean-Marc Lofficier.
Thirty thousand years ago, in Kobor Tigan’t, the five-tiered city of the Giants, it is the reign absolute of the matriarchy: at the top is Abim, the Very Huge, Mistress of the Underworld; Queen Opak the progenitrix ensures by her fecundity the survival of the race; on every level, women choose the men with whom they mate. But the race of the Giants is dying through decadence and boredom; and is threatened with extinction. Who then will save it? Is it To, Princess Ta’s One Man, who is already different from the others? Or the Beautiful Being who comes from elsewhere?
