News in remembrance Brian Lumley‚ 1937—2024 The Grand Master created the Necroscope universe‚ and wrote Lovecraftian tales. By Molly Templeton | Published on January 31‚ 2024 icon-comment 0 Share New Share Twitter Facebook Pinterest RSS Feed We are sorry to report that horror writer Brian Lumley‚ the winner of multiple lifetime achievement awards‚ died earlier this month at the age of 86. Lumley was known for the series that began with Necroscope (1986) as well as for his Lovecraftian work‚ which he began publishing in the ’70s. As the bio on his website notes‚ “Born 2nd December‚ 1937‚ Brian Lumley came into the world just nine months after the most obvious of his forebears—meaning of course a ‘literary’ forebear‚ namely‚ H. P. Lovecraft—had departed from it.” Lumley began writing in the world of Lovecraft while he was still a member of the Royal Military Police‚ writing two stories for the anthology Tales of the Cthulhu Mythos (1969). He continued to write Lovecraftian stories‚ including the novels in his Titus Crow series‚ while a member of the RMP. In 1980‚ he retired from the military to begin writing full-time. More tales in the Lovecraft mythos followed‚ but in 1984 he began writing Necroscope‚ which would become his breakout work. In this series‚ necroscopes are people who can communicate with the dead. The series ran to 18 novels; the last‚ Necroscope: The Möbius Murders‚ was published in 2013. For years‚ there have been reports that a Necroscope adaptation is in the works; we reported on one project in 2012‚ and another in 2021. The more recent project was intended to be a multi-platform franchise‚ but no further details have been announced. Lumley also wrote what his bio calls the “SF-ish novel” The House of Doors‚ and its sequel Maze of Worlds and published many collections of his short works. Lumley served as president of the Horror Writers Association in 1996-1997‚ and in 1998‚ was named a Grand Master by the organization. In 2010‚ he received both the Stoker Award for Lifetime Achievement and the World Fantasy Award for Life Achievement. His wife‚ Barbara Ann Lumley‚ wrote on Facebook: After a 22-year stint as a Royal Military Policeman‚ he had a long and prosperous lifetime of doing what he loved to do‚ bringing continued enjoyment to all his readers and listeners. Brian has written approximately 60 books along with many‚ many short stories‚ and novellas.He is survived by his wife‚ Barbara Ann (Silky) Lumley‚ his daughter Julie and many grandchildren and great grandchildren. Writers on the website formerly known as Twitter have been paying their respects‚ including Christopher Golden and Michael Marshall Smith. Very sad. A huge imagination and a huge personality. RIP Brian Lumley. https://t.co/wcuy9l74gR— Christopher Golden (@ChristophGolden) January 28‚ 2024 Just to mark the (finally announced) passing of Brian Lumley‚ massively successful British scribe within the Cthulhu mythos. Had many a beer with him‚ and in my experience he was always respectful‚ encouraging‚ and kind towards the young whippersnappers of the horror genre.— Michael Marshall Smith (@ememess) January 30‚ 2024 The post Brian Lumley‚ 1937—2024 appeared first on Reactor.

News Hugo Awards Worldcon Intellectual Property Censures Chengdu Worldcon Hugo Administrators The censure comes in the wake of unanswered questions pertaining to Hugo Award eligibility at WorldCon 2023. By Vanessa Armstrong | Published on January 31‚ 2024 icon-comment 0 Share New Share Twitter Facebook Pinterest RSS Feed On January 20‚ the Chengdu Worldcon team released the final statistics for their administration of the 2023 Hugo Awards. The details raised concern in the SFF community‚ as several nominations‚ such as R.F. Kuang’s Babel in the Best Novel category and Xiran Jay Zhao in the Astounding Award category‚ were listed as “not eligible” without explanation. Paul Weimer was also listed as “not eligible” in the Fan Writer category for no clear reason‚ and episode six of the Netflix adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman was also disqualified even though it should have been eligible under existing rules.  Responses from the Chengdu team did not clear up these decisions in the days since‚ resulting in speculation about the exclusions.  “I can only guess to why I was excluded‚ but it probably has something to do with my critical comments about the Chinese government in the past‚” Zhao told The Guardian. “You would think that as a big‚ powerful country‚ China would be graceful about criticisms‚ but they in fact take it very personally‚ and doubly so when it’s from Chinese diaspora.” Dave McCarty‚ who headed the Hugo awards process for Chengdu‚ said on Facebook that “nobody has ordered me to do anything… There was no communication between the Hugo administration team and the Chinese government in any official manner.” The Hugo awards‚ like the annual Worldcon event‚ are administered by a different host organization each year. Worldcon Intellectual Property (WIP)‚ a non-profit corporation that holds the service marks for the World Science Fiction Society (whose members attend Worldcon and take part in the Hugo nomination and award selection process)‚ was not directly involved in the Chengdu Hugo Awards process. WIP issued a statement on January 30 ‚ however‚ announcing that McCarty‚ who was also director of WIP‚ has resigned along with the WIP Board Chair Kevin Standlee. Donald Eastlake has become the new Chair of the WIP Board.  The WIP also formally censured McCarty “for his public comments that have led to harm of the goodwill and value of our marks and for actions of the Hugo Administration Committee of the Chengdu Worldcon that he presided over” and Standlee for “public comments that mistakenly led people to believe that we are not servicing our marks.” Chen Shi and Ben Yalow were also censured for “actions of the Hugo Administration Committee of the Chengdu Worldcon” that they presided over.

The Dead by Daylight Chief of Staff broached more than a few damning points about Palworld‚ a game that has claimed the hearts of literally millions. Are his words valid criticism‚ or are they far too harsh for the Early Access hit? Palworld isn’t perfect Nathan S.‚ the Chief of Staff for Dead by Daylight‚ made a not-so-positive LinkedIn post discussing his opinion on Palworld. Let’s be clear — I love Palworld. Despite my unbridled joy surrounding this game‚ not everyone will share the same opinion. I’d like to say that that is okay. Every game won’t suit every player.
