Summary

From the start, this Yuletide had been overshadowed by dread. After the last New Year’s Day, in Camelot, would Sir Mordred return to keep his word? And would the Green Knight find them again in Caerleon? How could he fail? The annual progressions of King Arthur’s Court were less than no public secret: its own members, and all the other people of England, must be able to find it at need.

    The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll...

    On their weekly walk, an eminently sensible, trustworthy lawyer named Mr. Utterson listens as his friend Enfield tells a gruesome tale of assault. The tale describes a sinister figure named Mr. Hyde who tramples a young girl, disappears into a door on the street, and reemerges to pay off her relatives with a check signed by a respectable gentleman. Since both Utterson and Enfield disapprove of gossip, they agree to speak no further of the matter. It happens, however, that one of Utterson’s clients and close friends, Dr. Jekyll, has written a will transferring all of his property to this same Mr. Hyde. Soon, Utterson begins having dreams in which a faceless figure stalks through a nightmarish version of London. 
     
    Puzzled, the lawyer visits Jekyll and their mutual friend Dr. Lanyon to try to learn more. Lanyon reports that he no longer sees much of Jekyll since they had a dispute over the course of Jekyll’s research, which Lanyon calls “unscientific balderdash.” Curious, Utterson stakes out a building that Hyde visits—which, it turns out, is a laboratory attached to the back of Jekyll’s home. Encountering Hyde, Utterson is amazed by how undefinably ugly the man seems as if deformed, though Utterson cannot say exactly how. Much to Utterson’s surprise, Hyde willingly offers Utterson his address. Jekyll tells Utterson not to concern himself with the matter of Hyde. 
     
    A year passes uneventfully. Then, one night, a servant girl witnesses Hyde brutally beat to death an old man named Sir Danvers Carew, a member of Parliament and a client of Utterson. The police contact Utterson, and Utterson suspects Hyde as the murderer. He leads the officers to Hyde’s apartment, feeling a sense of foreboding amid the eerie weather—the morning is dark and wreathed in fog. When they arrive at the apartment, the murderer has vanished, and police searches prove futile.

    Frankenstein by Mary Shelley -...

    This is a radio play version of Mary Shelley's classic novel, about the scientist Victor Frankenstein who created a monster. Recent biographies of Mary Shelley have pointed to the fact that Mary Shelley's motives for writing her story differ from those the public eventually attributed to it. There is good support for this because Mary Shelley wrote a preface to the 1831 edition of her novel in which she explicitly states this. And the themes she mentions are also present in her less talked about novel, The Last Man. 
    This is an adaptation by Michael Henrik Wynn for the education net radio stream Historyradio.org, and he also narrates and plays the various parts.

    The Druadan Legacy series is an adult romance where the main character will end up with multiple love interests. It is set on a distant earth, where centuries of rising seas have transformed the land masses into a scattering of islands. 
    In a world where the sea has claimed most of the land, the once-mighty druadan faces extinction. Genetically engineered for ancient wars, these fiercely loyal horses are bonded to a single male rider. Centuries after the final battle, they now number less than a hundred, and the few remaining are housed in the island continent of Venovia in isolated farms. 
    While searching for her missing sister at one such station, called Meridian, a shadowy threat emerges, sparking fears that the terrifying creatures from their past have returned. 
    *********************************************************** 
    One year ago, my sister vanished without a trace... 
    The police have their theories, but nothing adds up for me. Desperate for answers, I seize the opportunity to fill her shoes as public relations at the isolated Meridian Station, famous for its exclusive exhibitions of the rare and mystical genetically modified horses called Druadan. 
    Under a veil of secrecy, I know I must grow close to the three men who are the last to see her alive: 
    Heath: the proud manager 
    Carter: the charismatic rider 
    and 
    Logan: the brooding head of security. 
    But the deeper I venture into their world, the more I become entangled in a web of desires, deceptions, and looming danger. Meridian Station is a place where legends intertwine with reality, and myths become tangible. 
    Shadowbound is the first in an adult, dystopian sci-fi set on a future Earth. It is a 'why choose' romance, where the main character will end up with more than one love interest. It may have triggers for some, including violence, threat of death, blood, sexual themes, sexual acts, death, grief, and depression. It is intended for 18+ listeners.
