  The Horror at Red Hook - A...

  Howard Phillips Lovecraft is among the greatest American masters of fantasy and the supernatural.  
   
  Born in 1890, a native of Providence, Rhode Island, his health was uncertain from childhood and he led a sheltered early life. His semi-invalidism enabled him to read omnivorously, and as a shy imaginative child he began to invent what would in his adult life become a whole macabre fantastic world of his own, peopled by creatures out of his own weird imagination.  
   
  As an adult he was retiring, almost a recluse. Tall, thin and pale, but with bright alert eyes, he was much given to wandering his native city in the dark hours of the night, and he became a devoted student of its antiquities.  
   
  Although he began to write early he had nothing published until he was in his twenties. He set many of his stories around the imaginary town of Arkham, and invented an entire mythology of his own, its core being the demoniac cult of Cthulhu, based on the lore or legend that the world was at one time inhabited by another race who, in practising black magic, lost their foothold or were expelled, yet live on outside, ever ready to take possession of this earth again. 
   
  Since his early death in 1937 his stories have continued to attract attention and praise from an ever-growing audience.

  The Turn of the Screw

  "He was there or was not there; not there if I didn't see him."
  
  One of the world's most famous ghost stories, The Turn of the Screw is a hauntingly atmospheric tale of shadows, lurking dread and psychological menace in which a young governess, hired to care for two orphaned children, struggles to protect her charges from the demonic influence of the eerie apparitions of two former household servants.
  
  Is the threat to the children really that of a ghostly and malevolent presence… or something else entirely?
  
  With its unreliable narrator and pervading sense of unease and uncertainty, The Turn of the Screw is a strange and deeply unsettling ghost story that continues to spark academic debate and has inspired countless film, stage and television adaptations and re-workings including the The Innocents (1961) and The Haunting of Bly Manor (2020).
  
  Born in the United States in 1843, Henry James largely relocated to Europe as a young man and eventually settled in England, becoming a British citizen in 1915, a year before his death. Renowned for his exploration of consciousness and perception through his imaginative use of point of view, interior monologue and unreliable narrators, he is one of the key figures in nineteenth-century realism and considered to be among the greatest novelists in the English language. He is best known for his novels contrasting the innocence and exuberance of the New World with the corruption and wisdom of the Old, as illustrated in works such as Daisy Miller (1879), The Portrait of a Lady (1881) and The Bostonians (1886).

  Every deal has a cost. Every soul has a story. And the Devil remembers all of them. 
  Meet Lucky Beaumont: casino mogul, mother, monster, angel fallen and remade. To mortals, she's a billionaire with a smile sharp enough to draw blood. To those who cross her path, from bullied children to broken men to the wicked who think they'll never fall, she is something far older, far kinder, and far more terrifying than the legends ever dared to tell. 
  In these interwoven tales, Lucky opens the door to her past and present: 
  a lonely girl clutching a jump rope in a ruined church.... 
  a family road trip to a crater where Heaven once broke.... 
  a trio of students caught between a haunted house and a debt long overdue.... 
  and a predator who finally meets something hungrier than himself. 
  Through each story, Lucky writes to the one person she cannot forget: Rafe, revealing the truth behind mercy, monstrosity, and the love that reshaped Hell itself. 
  Gothic folklore, supernatural noir, an intimate confessional combine in The Devil's Memoirs as it pulls back the curtain on the Morning Star and finds not a villain, but a protector; not damnation, but choice.

  In a history where war's darkness intertwines with ancient terrors, John Cody and the soldiers by his side, fight a hopeless battle across a darkened 1940's Europe. What begins as a quest to liberate a fallen world quickly reveals an even deeper nightmare: towns and cities swallowed by silence, histories erased, and an unearthly presence lurking in the void. 
  Beneath the horrors of war, a more terrifying question looms: if God be for us, then who, or what, be against us? In this realm of unfathomable darkness, Cody must confront forces beyond mortal comprehension, fighting not just for survival, but for the very soul of mankind itself. 
  In this haunting convergence of war, horror, and human resilience, the line between salvation and damnation blurs. To stave off the fall of man, he must unravel the darkness, before it devours everything. 
  "A soul-shattering journey into ancient, celestial terror and a haunting twist on mankind's darkest moments." Adrian B - Independent Reviewer.
