In "A Deal with the Devil," Eden Phillpotts explores the intricate dynamics of human desires and moral dilemmas through a captivating narrative that interweaves elements of drama, romance, and psychological depth. Set against a lush literary backdrop, the novel presents a protagonist who grapples with the seductive allure of power juxtaposed against the weight of ethical responsibility. The influence of early 20th-century British societal norms is evident, as the characters navigate their personal ambitions and the consequences of their choices, encapsulated in Phillpotts'Äôs lyrical prose and vivid characterizations. Eden Phillpotts, a prominent figure in early 20th-century literature, was not just a novelist but also a playwright and poet, deeply entrenched in the cultural currents of his time. His own experiences with rural Devon life and familiarity with the complexities of human nature inform the intricate character studies found in this book. His vast literary career, marked by a keen observation of societal shifts, allows him to weave an engrossing tale that resonates with existential themes and moral questioning. Readers seeking a profound exploration of the human condition will find "A Deal with the Devil" both engaging and thought-provoking. This novel is a timeless examination of the choices we make and their implications, appealing to those who appreciate richly crafted narratives that challenge the boundaries of morality and desire.

    A mad surrealist's art threatens to rip open the fabric of reality, in this twisted tale of eldritch horror and conspiracy, from the wildly popular world of Arkham Horror. 
     
     
     
    Aspiring painter Alden Oakes is invited to join a mysterious art commune in Arkham: the New Colony. When celebrated Spanish surrealist Juan Hugo Balthazarr visits the colony, Alden and the other artists quickly fall under his charismatic spell. Balthazarr throws a string of decadent parties for Arkham's social elite, conjuring arcane illusions which blur the boundaries between nightmare and reality. Only slowly does Alden come to suspect that Balthazarr's mock rituals are intended to break through those walls and free what lies beyond. Alden must act, but it might already be too late to save himself, let alone Arkham.
