The Great God Pan

Arthur Machen

Casa editrice: Zenith Whispering Pines Publishers

Sinossi

A forbidden experiment. A woman transformed. A horror that slips quietly into the world—and never leaves.
When a scientist conducts a dangerous ritual meant to lift the veil between worlds, he unleashes something ancient, wild, and terrifying. Years later, strange deaths, dark rumors, and a mysterious young woman begin to weave together into a truth too monstrous to comprehend. As the shadows deepen, those who seek answers find themselves staring into the face of a myth that was never meant for human eyes.

Celebrated as "one of the most disturbing works of supernatural fiction ever written," Machen's novella influenced writers like H. P. Lovecraft and remains a cornerstone of cosmic and psychological horror. Its unsettling atmosphere and slow, creeping dread continue to haunt readers over a century later.

If you love eerie mysteries, gothic tension, and stories that linger in the mind long after the final page, this classic will grip you with its quiet, devastating power.

Open the book—if you dare—and glimpse the terror behind the world you think you know.

Great Tasmania's Cargo The...

Charles Dickens

Charles Dickens was a writer and social critic who created some of the world's best-known fictional characters and is regarded as the greatest novelist of the Victorian era. His works enjoyed unprecedented popularity during his lifetime, and by the twentieth century critics and scholars had recognised him as a literary genius. His novels and short stories enjoy lasting popularity.
THE GREAT TASMANIA'S CARGO: It is in the nature of things that such an institution as our English army should have many bad and troublesome characters in it. But, this is a reason for, and not against, its being made as acceptable as possible to well-disposed men of decent behaviour.
