First Publishing Announcement of 2026!
Meteor House is thrilled to celebrate Philip José Farmer’s 108th birthday by announcing our first title for 2026, Hadon of Ancient Opar!
This is the first stand alone hardcover edition of one of Farmer’s seminal titles, featuring striking cover art by Bob Eggleton—and here is a surprise—the original Roy Krenkel interior illustrations from the 1974 DAW paperback edition!
This edition also features substantial bonus material!
Bonus Features:
- Heritage of the Gray-Eyed God (Foreword by Burroughs and Farmer expert Robert R. Barrett)
- The Literary Archaeology of Khokarsa (Introduction by Burroughs and Farmer expert Christopher Paul Carey)
- 3 Maps by Charles Berlin
- Addendum 1 – Description of Maps
- Addendum 2 – Chronology of Khokarsa
- Afterword – A Guide to Khokarsa by Christopher Paul Carey
- Cast of Characters
- Peoples and Tribes
- Religion
- Geography
- Khokarsan Glossary
Available in both a Trade Paperback and Signed Hardcover Limited Edition (signed by Barrett, Berlin, Carey, and Eggleton), the hardcover features a leatherette cover with gold foil stamping and custom printed color end papers. This is another high-quality collectible in the tradition of Meteor House’s prior limited-edition hardcovers.
