 ABOUT THE AGENT: Eric Showers (he/him) is an agent at HMLA representing adult speculative fiction and nonfiction. ERIC IS SEEKING: “He’s most drawn, in speculative fiction, to narratives that explore hierarchies of power, novel world building in secondary world fantasy, and protagonists with unique voices.” The Traitor Baru Cormorant by Seth Dickinson, The Unspoken Name by A. K. Larkwood, and Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir are books that have hit some of these notes most recently. He’s also looking for stories on the cozier side of speculative fiction, along the lines of Becky Chambers’s The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet or Travis Baldree’s Legends and Lattes.
In nonfiction, he is most interested in history and philosophy. HOW TO SUBMIT: As always, please review the agency’s submission guidelines before you submit.
