Sinopsis

This collection brings together four of James A. Cooper’s best Cape Cod tales, originally published between 1917 and 1921. In Cap’n Abe, Storekeeper (1917), Cooper captures the essence of village life through the eyes of Cap’n Abe, whose general store serves as the community’s heart. Cap’n Jonah’s Fortune (1919) continues to explore coastal traditions, weaving adventure and humor into the quest for prosperity and meaning. Tobias o’ the Light (1920) turns toward solitude and duty, following Tobias Bassett, a lighthouse keeper whose life embodies the isolation and steadfastness demanded by the sea. Finally, Sheila of Big Wreck Cove (1921) introduces Sheila, whose life intertwines with shipwrecks and romance, showcasing Cooper’s skill at blending adventure with the trials of everyday life.

    Here there be gods and monsters—forged from flesh and stone and vengeance—emerging from the icy abyss of deep space, ascending from dark oceans, and prowling strange cities to enter worlds of chaos and wonder, where scientific rigor and human endeavor is tested to the limits. These are cosmic realms and watery domains where old offerings no longer appease the ancient Gods or the new and hungry idols. Deities and beasts. Life and death. Love and hate. Science and magic. And smiling monsters in human skin. 
     
     
     
    Premee Mohamed's debut collection of contemporary cosmic horror and dark fantasy heralds the arrival of a new and vibrant voice on the cutting edge of modern speculative fiction.

    A journey begins. Stories are told. Human nature reveals itself in every voice.
    As pilgrims travel toward Canterbury, each traveler shares a tale—romantic, comic, bawdy, moral, or deeply moving. From knights and clerics to millers and merchants, Chaucer brings together a vivid cross-section of medieval life, exposing ambition, faith, hypocrisy, love, and laughter with remarkable wit and insight.
    
    Hailed as "the greatest work of Middle English literature," The Canterbury Tales shaped the English literary tradition and introduced characters so alive they still feel modern. Its storytelling is bold, humorous, and endlessly revealing of the human heart.
    
    If you love classic storytelling, sharp social satire, and literature that captures humanity in all its complexity, this essential work is a must-read.
    
    Open the book—and join a journey where every tale reflects who we are.

    Where were you when the wildfires raged? 
      
    In 2023, while flames rushed across Canada and produced the orange haze of an apocalyptic future, twenty-one authors picked up their pens and began to write. Red Eyes and Tired Lungs: An Anthology of Wildfire showcases a collection of thirty-five pieces from Canadian writers that were inspired by, or in response to, wildfire.  
    Evacuation orders have been issued, and now the flame stalks across the forest. A sweet, lovable dog deals with an evacuation and the after-affects of severe smoke inhalation. What do you grab when you have only minutes to leave? Would you drive into the flames to help a friend save others? Flames shaped like women are luring people to their death, and a podcaster interviews someone who is apparently immune. Does the earth feel like an angry boyfriend about to break up with you? A dryad tries to locate the source of a wildfire and finds a misplaced creature. Can you find the good in a summer drowned in smoke? Will you miss the sounds of disappearing species? What would you do for a delicious can of sugar juice? A little boy listens to what the flames speak. A wildfire firefighter finds herself stalked by flames in two worlds. If you had to decide what could be saved, what would you choose? All these stories, poems, and more explore the many facets of wildfire.  
      
    Will you weep for humanity when smoke gets in your eyes? 
      
    This anthology includes poems and stories written by:  
    Raegan Cote, Tyree Corfe, Asha Jade Goodwin, Morgan Allie Graylin, Cherie Hanson, Payne Haynes, Lesley Hebert, Drea Laj, Heather Bonin MacIntosh, Kilmeny MacMichael, Em Van Moore, Cassidy Muir, Rod Raglin, Jonathan Riggs, Alexander Robertson, Michele Rule, Jakie Sawyer, Anneliese Schultz, Hilma Sinkinson, Topper Sundquist, and Lily Autumn West.

    Unearth the Unimaginable… 
    In the shadows of ordinary lives, where reality blurs with the inexplicable, lies a collection of stories that will chill your bones and ignite your imagination. 
    Enter a world where a mirror refuses to reflect, where shadows come to life, where dreams turn into nightmares, and where prophecies whispered in the dead of night may seal your fate. From the haunting melody of a cursed music box to the twisted allure of a diabolical toyshop, each tale is a dark and thrilling journey into the unknown. 
    Dare to explore the twisted corridors of "The Hospice," where a dying patient's prophecy sends shivers down a young nurse's spine. Feast upon the unimaginable at Club Numinous, where culinary delights hide a terrifying secret. Discover the terror of "Crybaby Bridge," where a haunting legend becomes all too real. These tales and more await you within the pages of this anthology, penned with a touch of madness and a love for the macabre. Every story is a doorway, and behind each lies a realm of fear, mystery, and dark fascination. 
    Do you dare to cross the threshold?
