  Description: 
  The Cats of Ulthar by H. P. Lovecraft is a darkly enchanting tale set in a mythical land where superstition and cosmic justice intertwine. First published in 1920, the story recounts the curious events in the town of Ulthar, where it is said that no man may kill a cat. 
  Through the eyes of a wandering traveler, we learn of the cruelty of an old couple who take pleasure in destroying cats, and of the strange vengeance that follows when a caravan of mysterious strangers arrives. The tale unfolds with Lovecraft’s unique blend of folklore and unease, weaving a fable that is at once cautionary and uncanny. 
  This recording, narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, conveys both the mythic cadence and the chilling undercurrent of Lovecraft’s prose. While the text itself is in the public domain, this performance is an original work and copyright © 2025 Jonathan Dunne. 
  This audiobook is part of Timeless Terrors, a dedicated series bringing classic horror back to life — stories from the great masters of the macabre, narrated afresh to haunt a new generation. 
  Listeners should expect a strange and memorable meditation on cruelty, retribution, and the enigmatic power of cats in the unseen world.

  Laughter, happiness, romance, and just a bit of deception and intrigue – these are what make up Shakespeare’s most beloved comedies. Though Shakespeare is probably most well known for the dramatic tragedies that have defined the genre for centuries, his comedies are just as well beloved and performed in theaters across the globe.Shakespearean comedies are defined by their humorous writing, their satire, the often-tangled romances, disguises and deceptions, and a thoughtful “fool” who is often the bearer of the smartest lines in the plays. Most of the time, there is also at least one (or two, or three, or four) weddings that tie the entire plot together in a neat package just in the nick of time. These conventions are iconic in the genre, and are what gave Shakespeare’s comedies their place in the literary canon.This collection of the best of Shakespeare’s comedies includes:A Midsummer’s Night’s DreamThe Merchant of VeniceMuch Ado About NothingAs You Like ItTwelfth NightThe Tempest

  This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself.
