Any Other Name by Emma Newman
“Emma Newman is an extraordinary new voice in SF/F.”
Paul Cornell, Hugo Award winner, and author of London Falling and Saucer Country
“Emma Newman has built a modern fantasy world with such élan and authority
her ideas of why and how the seemingly irrational world of Fairy works
should be stolen by every other writer in the field. Her characters are
complex and troubled, courageous at times and foolhardy.
This book of wonders is first rate.”
Bill Willingham, Eisner Award winner, and creator of Fables
It’s been an interesting year…
Cathy has been forced into an arranged marriage with William – a situation that comes with far more strings than even she could have anticipated, especially when she learns of his family’s intentions for them both.
Meanwhile, Max and the gargoyle investigate The Agency – a mysterious organisation that appears to play by its own rules – and none of them favourable to Society.
Over in Mundanus, Sam has discovered something very peculiar about his wife’s employer – something that could herald a change for everyone in both sides of the Split Worlds.

Praise and Reviews:
“Emma Newman has a talent for inventive, cleverly detailed plotting and her creation of the three Split Worlds and the utterly fetching characters who inhabit them.”
– The Newtown Review of Books
“So much fun, and thoroughly absorbing.”
– Reviews and Other Ramblings
“Another solid entry, which builds on the successes of the first book, there is the sense that great changes are building, not all for the better.”
– Sound and Fury
For Between Two Thorns:
“J. K. Rowling meets Georgette Heyer…Newman renders the Split Worlds with verve and an infectious sense of fun, and presents in Cathy a strong and personable heroine.”
– Eric Brown, The Guardian
For The Split Worlds Series:
“You know that feeling you get, after you have read something so incredible and feel empty once it is over? That is how I feel with The Split Worlds. I feel that no review I could write would justify the amazing-ness of this series. The series is humorous, political, aggravating, and heartbreaking. All in one. There is violence, fantasy, romance, some smut, corruption, mystery…every genre all rolled into one plot line.” – The Bibliophile’s Apprentice
“The Split Worlds Trilogy marks the author as someone to watch for her future endeavors, be they within the Split Worlds or elsewhere.” – Skiffy and Fanty
