Pan Macmillan has signed a "significant" six-figure deal with Duncton Wood author William Horwood for world rights excluding the US in a quartet of novels about the "Hyddenworld".
The novels are about the human race as it approaches a crisis point after its exploitation of natural resources. The first, Hyddenworld, is due in spring 2009, followed in subsequent years by the three volumes in a trilogy entitled Mirror.
