Earthling Publications have announced that THE SERVANTS is now available and ready for immediate despatch...

PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY gave it a Starred Review and called it a 'superb, offbeat contemporary fantasy'; ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY said 'This moving parable delivers strong psychological insights into a child's powerlessness and anger', and Charles de Lint in FANTASY AND SCIENCE FICTION MAGAZINE said 'The Servants is an absolute delight of a book... the delight is in how beautifully Smith handles every aspect of this poignant and mysterious story. Highly recommended'.

The Lettered and Numbered states are already sold out, but the very handsome trade hardcover with illustrations is still available...
