In a dystopian world, Enid of Haven, an enforcer of the laws on mandatory birth control, is investigating the suspicious death of an outcast and discovers facts about the past that could reveal the instability of her world.
As Kitty tries to assemble an army of allies to defeat the ancient vampire Roman, a new werewolf continually challenges her authority, while bounty hunter Cormac and Rick, the master vampire of Denver, face their own challenges.
Ex-convict Cormac Bennett and Amelia Parker, the Victorian magician living in his head, investigate an old murder in a Colorado mining town as they struggle to translate a book of magic whose secrets could prove very destructive.
Written with a pervasive atmosphere of unexplainable dread - are more relevant than ever, this title helps us to explore the mysteries of a universe in which our planet is infinitesimal and climatic change is overwhelming it.
What hope has a humble adventurer when faced with a fight against Cthulhu himself? No matter; the true swordsperson cares only for the bite of steel against flesh, whether that flesh be eldritch or more conventional. From the hottest voices in Lovecraftiana comes a collection that will take readers on a journey from ancient Rome to feudal Japan and from Dreamlands to lands that do not have names...
No matter your expectations, the dark is full of the unknown: grim futures, distorted pasts, invasions of the uncanny, paranormal fancies, weird dreams, unnerving nightmares, baffling enigmas, revelatory excursions, desperate adventures, spectral journeys, mundane terrors, and supernatural visions.
Behind the Mask is a multi-author collection with stories by award-winning authors Kelly Link, Cat Rambo, Carrie Vaughn, Seanan McGuire, Lavie Tidhar, Sarah Pinsker, Keith Rosson, Kate Marshall, Chris Large and others. It is partially a prose nod to the comic world?the bombast, the larger-than-life, the save-the-worlds and the calls-to-adventure. But it's also a spotlight on the more intimate side of the genre. The hopes and dreams of our cape-clad heroes. The regrets and longings of our cowled villains. That poignant, solitary view of the world that can only be experienced from behind the mask.
Bright lights, big city ...magic spells, witchcraft, wizardry, fairies, devilry, and more. Urban living, at least in fantasy fiction, is full of both magical wonder and dark enchantment. Street kids may have supernatural beings to protect them or have such powers themselves. Brujeria may be part of your way of life.
Decades after environmental and economic collapse, pockets of settlements struggle to maintain a much-reduced civilization by strictly rationing resources?including the ability to have children. Enid of Haven, an investigator in this community, travels to a far-flung village with her new, inexperienced partner to settle a minor resource dispute. But while there, the murder of an outsider demands her attention, and leads to explosive secrets.
