  "I believe in the spirit of the age; it is a spirit of progress, though its path is often through blood."
  
  Set in Yorkshire during the turbulent years of 1811–1812, Shirley is Charlotte Brontë's most ambitious social novel. Against a backdrop of the Luddite riots and the economic strangulation of the Napoleonic Wars, the story weaves together the lives of two very different women: the shy, repressed Caroline Helstone and the vibrant, independent heiress Shirley Keeldar.
  
  The Clash of Progress and Tradition: At the heart of the crisis is Robert Moore, a mill owner whose determination to modernize his factory puts him at odds with his starving workers. As tensions escalate into violent attacks on the mill, the characters are forced to navigate a world of shifting loyalties, class warfare, and the harsh realities of the Industrial Revolution.
  
  A Masterpiece of Shared Experience: While Jane Eyre focused on the individual, Shirley explores the power of community and the "Woman Question." Brontë masterfully portrays the bond between Shirley and Caroline as they challenge the restrictive roles imposed upon them by society. It is a novel of intellectual depth and political passion, blending gritty historical realism with a poignant search for personal fulfillment.
  
  Witness the birth of the modern world through the eyes of two unforgettable women. Purchase "Shirley" today and experience Brontë's most expansive historical drama.

  Title: Dagon 
  Author: H. P. Lovecraft 
  Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
  Original Publication: 1919 
  Public Domain: Yes 
  Series Placement: Number 9 in the Timeless Terrors series 
  Description: 
  Dagon by H. P. Lovecraft is an early and haunting work of cosmic horror, first published in 1919 in The Vagrant. The story is framed as the desperate confession of a World War I veteran who recounts a terrifying encounter at sea. Adrift after escaping captivity, he drifts onto a nightmarish stretch of seabed where he witnesses the rise of an ancient, monstrous being. 
  This brief yet powerful tale introduces many of the themes that would come to define Lovecraft’s mythos—cosmic dread, the insignificance of humanity, and encounters with entities beyond comprehension. 
  Narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this recording captures the unsettling mood and creeping madness that permeate the story. While the text is in the public domain, this performance is an original work and copyright © 2025 Jonathan Dunne.

  Edward Prendick thinks he's been saved when he is found adrift after shipwreck. But he soon finds himself exposed to fresh horrors as his journey takes him to the Island of Dr Moreau!  
  Shunned by society, Moreau and his assistant Montgomery perform acts of cruel surgery on animals and populate the island with the misbegotten results. Will Predick survive his time on the island? Will he return to civilised society with his sanity intact?  
  Written by HG Wells in 1896, the title earned widespread outrage and condemnation by critics and the media... and as a natural result is by far his best selling book to date.  
  Narrated by Michael Ward
