Tor.com's Most Anticipated Books of 2019

The good folks at Tor.com have published a list of the books they're most looking forward to in 2019. I haven't checked, but I assume that most, if not all, are published by Tor or its affiliates. It's quite a list, dominated by fantasy, which seems to be the trend in publishing in recent years. There are also many new authors, which is a good thing.

These are the books that I am looking forward to reading:

  • Black Leopard, Red Wolf by Marlon James (February 5)
  • The Best of R.A. Lafferty (February 7)
  • The City in the Middle of the Night by Charlie Jane Anders (February 12)
  • Ancestral Night by Elizabeth Bear (March 5)
  • A Memory Called Empire by Arkady Martine (March 26)
  • Agency by William Gibson (April 2), This is probably the book of the year for me. 
  • Exhalation: Stories by Ted Chiang (May 7)
  • The Future of Another Timeline by Annalee Newitz (September 24). If this is anywhere near as good as Autonomous, it should be a great read.
