Mercury Retrograde Press publishes fantasy and science fiction that explores the edges of genre, myth, and the sentient mind. Fantasy with a psychological edge and character driven science fiction are specialties of the house.
We believe authors should have collaborative relationships with their publishers--and, by the same token, they should be active participants in sending their stories out into the world.
We love big books, in both the volume-of-paper and density-of-ideas senses. We love series that come about because their ideas just won't fit inside one set of covers. We love style and sophistication in language, philosophical mashups, and the grey areas of everything. We love the way books smell, and the way a really fabulous sentence sounds--
whether read aloud or inside our own heads. And we love sharing our discoveries with the world.
