Welcome to my self-promotional sandbox.*

I write science fiction and fantasy, but I've been known to dabble in mainstream and mysteries. My first novel, Pandemonium, appeared in 2008, and next book, The Devil's Alphabet, is coming out in the fall of 2009. More below.

It's Pandemonium out there

My first novel, Pandemonium, was published by Del Rey Books in August, 2008.

Award season!

Thanks to Pandemonium, I've won the 2009 Crawford award, given each year by critics and scholars of the fantasy field to "an outstanding new fantasy writer whose first book was published the previous year." More.

The book is also a finalist for three awards to be given out in the summer of '09: The Shirley Jackson Award, for best dark fantasy or horror novel, the Locus Award for best first novel, and the Mythopoeic Award, for best adult fantasy novel.

Reviews, interviews, and opening chapter

Publisher's Weekly's Weekly gave the book a starred review and said: "Believable characters, a multilayered plot and smooth prose define Gregory’s darkly ambitious debut novel." (More). 

And the dozen other reviews have been pretty darn nice, too.

See the Pandemonium page for details, reviews, and the opening chapter.

The Devil's Alphabet, coming this fall

My second book will be out November 24, 2009—a story about quantum evolution, murder, and what it means to be human, all set in a tiny Tennessee mountain town. Read the first chapter.
