  The Epiphany Of Death - Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz 
  Clark Ashton Smith (January 13, 1893 – August 14, 1961) was an American writer and artist. He achieved early local recognition, largely through the enthusiasm of George Sterling, for traditional verse in the vein of Swinburne. As a poet, Smith is grouped with the West Coast Romantics alongside Joaquin Miller, Sterling, and Nora May French and remembered as "The Last of the Great Romantics" and "The Bard of Auburn". Smith's work was praised by his contemporaries. H. P. Lovecraft stated that "in sheer daemonic strangeness and fertility of conception, Clark Ashton Smith is perhaps unexcelled", and Ray Bradbury said that Smith "filled my mind with incredible worlds, impossibly beautiful cities, and still more fantastic creatures". 
  Smith was one of "the big three of Weird Tales, with Robert E. Howard and H. P. Lovecraft", though some readers objected to his morbidness and violation of pulp traditions. The fantasy writer and critic L. Sprague de Camp said of him that "nobody since Poe has so loved a well-rotted corpse".[3] Smith was a member of the Lovecraft circle, and his literary friendship with Lovecraft lasted from 1922 until Lovecraft's death in 1937. His work is marked by an extraordinarily rich and ornate vocabulary, a cosmic perspective and a vein of sardonic and sometimes ribald humor. 
  Of his writing style, Smith stated: "My own conscious ideal has been to delude the reader into accepting an impossibility, or series of impossibilities, by means of a sort of verbal black magic, in the achievement of which I make use of prose-rhythm, metaphor, simile, tone-color, counter-point, and other stylistic resources, like a sort of incantation."

  Author: H. P. Lovecraft 
  Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
  Original Publication: 1929 
  Public Domain: Yes 
  Series Placement: Timeless Terrors No. 62 — Part 2 of 10 
  Description: 
  Welcome to Timeless Terrors No. 62, featuring one of H. P. Lovecraft’s most infamous works of cosmic dread: The Dunwich Horror. 
  In the remote Massachusetts village of Dunwich, something is terribly wrong. The Whateley family — feared, shunned, whispered about — has welcomed a child into the world… but Wilbur Whateley is no ordinary boy. He grows unnaturally fast, speaks strange languages, and seeks forbidden knowledge from the Necronomicon itself. 
  Locked away in their decaying farmhouse, Wilbur and his occult-obsessed grandfather nurture a monstrous secret — a presence too large, too hungry, and too alien to remain hidden much longer. 
  As livestock vanish, the hills tremble, and the air fills with unholy sounds, the truth becomes undeniable: 
  an unseen horror is waiting to break free. 
  Narrated by Amazon-bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this fresh performance resurrects a groundbreaking tale of ancient gods, corrupted bloodlines, and the terrifying thinness of reality. 
  This is Part 2 of a 10-part complete audiobook. Stay tuned — the nightmare has only begun.

  Even when a person can see something, it doesn't necessarily mean he should look… 
  Celina Wilton is technically blind, but, given the alternative of being dead instead, she's learned how to adapt to a condition she finds far from ideal. 
  Leader of a community of psychics, Stefan Kronos is often asked by the police to help out on special cases where his unique abilities assist with investigations. When he's called upon to consult on a case, Celina falls squarely on his radar. For a long time, he's wanted to get to know Celina better, and the only reason he's gotten as far as he has around her walls is by proceeding in unusual ways. He's had to cautiously watch his every step…and now, in order to protect her, he has to watch hers as well. 
  But, to unravel the threads tangling their lives with a vicious killer, Celina will need to trust Stefan enough to let him inside her barriers. 
  This stalker is like none other Stefan has encountered. Before long, he realizes he's not the only one with eyes into Celina's soul…
