  Welcome to Timeless Terrors No. 62, concluding H. P. Lovecraft’s descent into cosmic nightmare: The Dunwich Horror. 
  The end has come to Dunwich. 
  Across the shattered hills, the aftermath of the unseen terror lies everywhere—homes flattened, fields torn raw, and the very air trembling with the residue of something vast, alien, and grieving in its destruction. The invisible behemoth, once confined to the Whateley farmhouse, now towers over the valley as its final rampage reaches a haunting crescendo. 
  Yet for the first time, a fragile beacon of resistance stands against it. 
  On the heights of Sentinel Hill, a small band of scholars prepares for a confrontation humanity was never meant to face. Armed with forbidden knowledge, perilous incantations, and a desperate understanding of the creature’s tragic origin, they move to end the catastrophe—knowing full well that their minds, their bodies, and their very souls may not survive what comes next. 
  In these final moments, cosmic horror collides with heartbreaking revelation, as the boundary between the human world and the outer void trembles on the brink of collapse. 
  Narrated by Amazon-bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this concluding chapter delivers the powerful finale to Lovecraft’s masterpiece—a final stand where courage, madness, and the unknowable intertwine beneath a dark and indifferent universe. 
  This is Part 10 of a 10-part complete audiobook. 
  The nightmare ends here… but the echoes will remain.

  Rudolph Hartmann is one of the most fiendish villains in literary history, raining pitiless death from his airship on Parliament, St. Paul's, and The City. Just 20 years later, Fawcett's apocalyptic vision came true when German zeppelins bombed London.

  A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man tells the story of Stephen Dedalus, a boy growing up in Ireland at the end of the nineteenth century, as he gradually decides to cast off all his social, familial, and religious constraints to live a life devoted to the art of writing. As a young boy, Stephen's Catholic faith and Irish nationality heavily influence him. He attends a strict religious boarding school called Clongowes Wood College. At first, Stephen is lonely and homesick at the school, but as time passes he finds his place among the other boys. He enjoys his visits home, even though family tensions run high after the death of the Irish political leader Charles Stewart Parnell. This sensitive subject becomes the topic of a furious, politically charged argument over the family's Christmas dinner. This is James Joyce's first novel, the semi-autobiographical story of a young Irish boy who struggles with family, country, and religion to become an artist and a man.
