Edward Willett Joins TBB Family
Award-winning Canadian author, and host of The Worldshapers podcast, Edward Willett, is joining the Tuscany Bay Books family in 2026 with his The Helix War series.
Tuscany Bay Books will be re-releasing new editions of the first two books of the series, Marseguro, which won the 2009 Aurora Award, honoring Canadian science fiction and fantasy, for Best Long-Form Work in English, and Terra Insegura, which was a finalist for the same award the following year, in the Fall/Winter of 2026/2027.
The brand-new third book of the series, which currently has the working title of Vingança, will be released one month later.
