  Wuthering Heights is an 1847 novel by Emily Brontë, initially published under her pen name Ellis Bell. It concerns two families of the landed gentry living on the West Yorkshire moors, the Earnshaws and the Lintons, and their turbulent relationships with Earnshaw's foster son, Heathcliff. The novel was influenced by Romanticism and Gothic fiction.Wuthering Heights is now considered a classic of English literature, but contemporaneous reviews were polarised. It was controversial for its depictions of mental and physical cruelty, and for its challenges to Victorian morality and religious and societal values.Wuthering Heights was accepted by publisher Thomas Newby along with Anne Brontë's Agnes Grey before the success of their sister Charlotte's novel Jane Eyre, but they were published later. Charlotte edited a second edition of Wuthering Heights after Emily's death which was published in 1850. It has inspired an array of adaptations across several media, including English singer-songwriter Kate Bush's song of the same name.

  What happens beyond the end of time? 
  In Munderworld, time has become meaningless. With the world of po gone, there isn’t much for many to do beyond endure their existence. Though there is one person, a jester from a bygone age, who chooses to spend his time high in the mountains looking at the stars. 
  He and his friend, a small and chatty imp called Fiddle, decide on some antics to pass the time and end up angering a celestial entity. After barely escaping with their lives, Cynkz is given brief glimpses of an odd vision. Unsure of what to make of it, he decides it is a good enough reason as any to venture down through the depths of Munderworld and see if they can find an audience with the enigmatic Munder King–the lord of darkness, he who created Munderworld (and has not been seen or heard of for eons). 
  A simple, carefree decision to seek adventure soon turns into a series of growing perils as the dynamic duo meet many others just trying to get by. Cynkz’s own curiosities become entwined with the goals and wishes of others as his own resolve gets tested the further down they go.

  The Thing on the Roof, written by Robert E. Howard in 1932, is a chilling tale that masterfully blends elements of Lovecraftian cosmic horror with Howard’s signature sense of adventure and danger. First published in Weird Tales in 1932, this story exemplifies Howard’s ability to craft narratives that delve into forbidden knowledge, ancient relics, and the inevitable consequences of tampering with forces beyond human comprehension. The story follows the misadventures of an unnamed narrator, an antiquarian who recounts the fate of a colleague, Tussmann, after he unearths a mysterious and ominous artifact: the Black Book. Fueled by greed and intellectual hubris, Tussmann uses the text to locate an ancient temple in Central America, unaware of the terrible entity that slumbers there. The story builds tension as Tussmann’s quest for knowledge turns into a nightmare, culminating in an encounter with an unspeakable being that defies logic and sanity. The Thing on the Roof showcases Howard’s skill at fusing his love of archaeology, mythology, and horror into a fast-paced, atmospheric tale. The influence of H.P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos is evident, with the story’s emphasis on ancient, malevolent forces and the dire consequences of uncovering them. Yet, Howard’s voice remains distinct, adding a visceral energy and sense of immediacy to the unfolding terror. This story invites readers to consider the dangers of arrogance and unchecked curiosity, themes that resonate deeply in the realm of weird fiction. As you journey into the shadowy world of The Thing on the Roof, prepare for an adventure that combines the allure of discovery with the chilling reminder that some mysteries are best left undisturbed.
