SERIALIZED FICTION from HILOBOOKS

In November, HiLoBooks will begin serializing William Haggard’s 1963 novel The High Wire, the fifth title in his Col. Charles Russell series — which was considered by critics superior to Ian Fleming’s Bond series. We’ll publish weekly installments of this thrilling espionage adventure through February 2015.

HOWEVER: In October, HiLoBooks will conclude its serialization of Eimar O’Duffy’s Radium Age science fiction novel King Goshawk and the Birds; and in November, HiLoBooks will conclude its serialization of Morley Roberts’s 1900 adventure novel The Fugitives.

MEANWHILE: HiLoBooks will continue its serialization of Helen MacInnes’s espionage adventure The Unconquerable and Geoffrey Household’s Watcher in the Shadows; installments will appear weekly through April 2015.
