  Published posthumously in 1919, this collection of diary entries presents a scathing picture of army life and is said to be one of the most vivid accounts of daily life in the trenches. It chronicles West's increasing disillusion with war and his move toward pacifist and atheist beliefs. The final part consists of his powerful war poems, including God, How I Hate You, You Young Cheerful Men, and Night Patrol. West was killed by a sniper in 1917. In view of some of his poems, one wonders if death was not unwelcome. Arthur Graeme West was a British writer and war poet. West was born in Eaton, Norfolk, educated at Highgate School, then Blundell's School and Balliol College, Oxford, and killed by a sniper in 1917.

  Two friends set out on foot at the edge of autumn, trading the noise of the city for quiet roads and golden leaves. With no fixed destination, they walk through the backroads of upstate New York, staying in small inns, visiting country towns, and living on simple pleasures. 
  Along the way, they reflect on poetry, friendship, freedom, and the joy of slowing down. October Vagabonds is part travel memoir, part celebration of nature, and part quiet rebellion against the rush of modern life. 
  This is a story for those who dream of wandering, who long for crisp air and fire-lit nights, and who find meaning in moments that ask nothing in return. 
  Perfect for fans of lyrical prose, slow travel, and stories that value stillness over spectacle.

  Description: 
  Wolfshead is a dark and visceral tale of lycanthropic horror set in the wild borderlands of French colonial Africa. 
  The story follows De Montour, a brooding and capable adventurer living on the fringes of civilization. Haunted by a terrible affliction, he carries a curse that sets him apart from other men — one that emerges beneath the full moon in a transformation both savage and uncontrollable. When a ruthless Arab slaver named Saheem seeks vengeance against him, De Montour’s hidden nature becomes the fulcrum upon which survival balances. 
  As tensions rise and the African night closes in, primal violence and supernatural terror intertwine. Howard blends relentless action with gothic horror, crafting a story where the beast within proves both a curse and a weapon. 
  First published in Weird Tales in 1924, Wolfshead was Robert E. Howard’s first professional sale, marking the beginning of the career of one of the most influential pulp writers of the twentieth century. In this early yet powerful tale, listeners will recognize Howard’s signature intensity — vivid atmosphere, raw physicality, and the thin line between civilization and savagery. 
  Narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance captures the story’s ferocity, brooding tension, and supernatural dread, bringing Howard’s early masterpiece vividly to life.
