Beschreibung

Ya Ling’s cultured life of privilege in Beijing is cruelly cut short when she is abducted and shipped to the slave market in Venice. When Mantegna sees her chained to a post, his initial intention is to paint her exotic beauty, but he soon he desires her company for pleasures of a more private nature. Ya Ling has two ambitions, to ruin Mantegna, then to escape back to her family in China. However, Mantegna’s latest commission, two huge frescos for the ruling Gonzaga family, make him invincible. 
Will Ya Ling survive? And can she succeed?

    "Marlowe! Here! Now!" screamed Lando King the editor and owner of the Newspaper where Jim Marlowe worked as a reporter. 
    "Sounds like you got Lando really angry, said his friend Lance Alexander, who also worked there. 
    "Yeah," Jim said and rushed off to their boss's office to see Lando. 
    Jim timidly opened Lando's office door and walked scaredly into the room. 
    "Marlowe what took you so long to get here, did you come here via Tasmania?" shouted Lando. Jim grimaced nervously. 
    "No sir," said Jim, thinking it must have been the article he wrote for yesterday's paper. 
    It was.  
    "How dare you try to put such idealistic tripe in my paper," shouted Lando, throwing a pile of papers at Jim. They were the article he submitted for editing and the notes on it. 
    "It wasn't tripe, Sir, it was the truth," Jim shouted back. 
    It was his second mistake talking back to Lando the control freak. 
    "The Earth does go round the Sun it's scientific a fact!" the livid Jim shouted. 
    "You precocious upstart," said the skeptical Lando, "get out of my newspaper!" shouted Lando. 
    "See you tomorrow, Mr. King, when you have calmed down a bit," said Jim. 
    "No you are fired, never stain my floors and paper again," shouted a furious Lando. 
    "No you can't fire me I quit," shouted Jim.

It was written on February 28, 1921, and was first published in the July/August 1935 issue of the magazine Galleon. It was later reprinted in Weird Tales in 1939.The story is about a golden-haired youth who wanders into the city of Teloth, telling tales of the great city of Aira, where he was prince. While Iranon enjoys singing and telling his tales of wonder, few appreciate it. A city solon even orders Iranon to cease his singing & music, and become apprenticed to the cobbler - or leave the city by sunset. When a disenfranchised boy named Romnod suggests leaving Teloth to go to the famed city of Oonai (which he thinks may be Aira, now under a different name), Iranon takes him up on his offer.

    As the painting of The Temptation of Christ hangs ominously on the wall, young Samuel Morgan is plagued by its haunting presence. But it's not just the painting that's causing him anguish. Samuel's involvement in the occult with an insane witchcraft scientist, Alan Wilson, has set free a terrifying demon—Beelphegor—with devastating effect. 
    Desperate for a solution, Samuel's mother, Marilyn Morgan, seeks help from doctors and psychiatrists. But their support is ineffective in the face of such malevolent forces. In a last-ditch effort, Marilyn turns to Reverend Stephen Mason, a priest-counsellor known for his expertise in exorcisms. But before he can begin the daunting task of driving out the demon that possesses Samuel, Reverend Mason must first overcome his own faltering faith and uncertainties about God. 
    As the battle between good and evil rages on, the stage is set for a final showdown between the reverend and the demonic Beelphegor on holy ground—where the fate of Samuel's soul hangs in the balance.
