Sinopse

Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu's "All in the Dark" intricately weaves a tapestry of suspense and psychological depth, exploring the eerie landscapes of human fear and the supernatural. The novella is emblematic of Le Fanu's mastery in the Gothic genre, characterized by his rich descriptive style and an atmospheric sense of impending dread that permeates the narrative. Set against the backdrop of Victorian society, the story delves into the shadowy realms of the mind, merging the uncanny with the everyday and examining how darkness—not just literal but figurative—can envelop one's consciousness and reality. Le Fanu, an influential figure in Gothic literature, was known for his exploration of themes such as supernatural horror and the ambiguities of morality. Raised in a culturally rich environment, his Irish heritage and encounters with the supernatural folklore of his homeland undoubtedly shaped his narrative voice. His oeuvre illustrates his deep fascination with the uncanny, which is poignantly manifested in "All in the Dark," where he invites readers to confront their innermost anxieties. This novella is a compelling read for aficionados of Gothic fiction and those who appreciate the intertwining of psychological insight with supernatural elements. Le Fanu's atmospheric storytelling and keen observations make "All in the Dark" not merely a tale of horror, but a profound exploration of the human psyche's darker corners.

    Six years have passed since Salem Covington, the Black Magpie, rode a vengeance trail against those who killed his mentor. Now another lies on her deathbed and she has a message for her former student: He will soon follow her into the next world. But for Salem, there is no opportunity to mourn. A chance encounter with a young outlaw, Amaya, reveals three truths: she is being hunted by strange riders that cannot be killed, they have stolen women, and they answer to a man named Granger Hyde. Left for dead once, Granger has returned to take vengeance for his suffering, and perform a ritual of murder. A ritual with which Salem is intimately familiar. A bloody game of cat and mouse begins as Granger' s riders pursue the pair across the west, led by a woman that awakens long-forgotten fear, and is intent on driving the Black Magpie to his fate and the grave she has prepared for him. FOR A FEW SOULS MORE is the sequel to the Splatterpunk Award-winning novel, THE MAGPIE COFFIN, the second part in a trilogy by Wile E. Young, author of SHADES OF THE BLACK STONE and DUST BOWL CHILDREN. It is an examination of bleak fatality, nihilistic violence, and the iron at the heart of men.
