Summary

He built a man—and unleashed a monster.

In Frankenstein, Mary Shelley delivers a haunting tale of ambition, isolation, and the limits of scientific exploration. When Victor Frankenstein dares to play god and animates lifeless matter, he sets in motion a chain of tragedy, reflection, and horror that still captivates readers two centuries later.

Widely regarded as the first true science fiction novel, Frankenstein is both a chilling Gothic tale and a profound exploration of what it means to be human.

    It was supposed to be a relaxing vacation in a small town. Now, they're on the run from religious fanatics. 
    When five friends are invited to a religious celebration in a small, isolated town, they are initially showered by the townsfolk with gifts and attention. As the days go by, however, it becomes clear that the community is not as innocuous as it initially presented itself. Mysterious, robed figures violently beat people who express different opinions, strange rituals take place in the church at night, and armed gunmen patrol the town perimeters – all under Prophet Martin’s orders. 
    What was supposed to be a relaxing trip for the outsiders turns into a struggle for survival, with the entire town zealously following Prophet Martin’s command – to find and kill the sinners.

    Rum, a sailing ship, and a dare…   …What could go wrong?   Edgar Allan Poe’s only complete novel, The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket is one of the first adventure stories set in and around the Antarctic, which at the time was a place of mystery and the unknown.   Pym takes us on an adventure across the seas to uncharted southern lands that are fraught with danger. With shipwrecks, murder, mutiny, and, yes, cannibalism, this tale has it all. First published in 1838, midway between Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe and Stevenson’s Treasure Island, Poe’s Pym echoes one and presages the other while delving even deeper into the darkness of men’s souls.   This new edition, with a new Foreword by New York Times best-selling author and Bram Stoker Award winner Jonathan Maberry, brings the classic tale back to life. Not for the faint of heart, Poe’s novel, which inspired H.G. Wells, Jules Verne, H.P. Lovecraft, and many others, reflects the wonder and dangers of exploring the unknown.

    This collection of three ghost stories, by master of the genre M. R. James, first appeared in "A Warning to the Curious" published in 1925. James wrote "The Haunted Dolls' House" in 1923 on a commission from Queen Mary who wanted miniature books from the most popular writers of the day to include in the library of her doll's house at Windsor Castle. Antique dealer Mr. Chittenden has an exquisite example of a doll's house in his shop. After a little haggling he manages to offload it onto one of his regular customers, a collector called Mr. Dillet. It becomes abundantly clear that Chittenden and his wife are all too glad to see the back of it, as whosoever owns the dolls' house is subject to supernatural visions every morning at one o'clock. Also included in this collection are "An Evening's Entertainment" and "A Neighbour's Landmark".
