  Phobias are defined as an irrational and extreme fear to something. It could be anything as long as it causes an intense and debilitating fear. What happens when these irrational fears/phobias become reality? When the irrational becomes rational and there’s a reason to be scared? Find out in The Pulp Horror Book of Phobias. We’ve created an A to Z phobia list and elevated each one to a new level of fear. These stories come to life in ways that will make you want to sleep with the light on, double check the locks on your door, and think twice before dismissing your fear as irrational.A — A TOUCH OF MADNESS — TIM WAGGONERB — IT CAME FROM THE GRAVE — JAMES PYNEC — ENTWINED — COLLEEN ANDERSOND — DESTINY'S ROAD TRIP — JAY SEATEE — MORBID DREAD OF THE DAWN — PHILIP ATHANSF — MUTUAL POSSESSION — WT PATERSONG — RIGHT OF CROSSING — JAMES CHAMBERSH — PASSING JUDGEMENT — CHAD LUTZKEI — THE CLINIC — ASHER ELLISJ — NOT JUST DESSERTS — JONAH BUCKK — THE MAN WHO FEARED THE SKY — JOHN SKIPPL — CHILDREN OF BLOOD — GREG CHAPMANM — THE YEARNING JADE — HANK SCHWAEBLEN — THE CEMETERY MAN — JG FAHERTYO — WHITE TO BLACK — MICHAEL BAILEYP — THE HUNCH — RICHARD CHIZMARQ — FIVE IN THE SIX — SEPHERA GIRONR — THE TOXIC MAGICIAN — SHERI SEBASTIAN-GABRIELS — FEEDING THE ORISHAS — GABINO IGLESIAST — MUNCHAUSEN — MAX BOOTH IIIU — TRUE CONFESSIONS OF THE HAPPIEST PISTACHIO — MEHITOBEL WILSONV — BEAUTIFUL WOMEN — RAY GARTONW — A BOLT OF LIGHTNING — EDWARD M ERDELACX — HALFPENNY — STEVEN M VANCEY — TOO HOT IN BOILERTOWN — JILL HANDZ — THE CATALYST TO GROW SOME GUTS — KERRY LIPP

  This WWI thriller is “a particularly rousing brand of naval fiction . . . brimming with action, suspense, and authentic historical detail” (Booklist).   Churchill called it the finest feat of arms of the Great War . . .   After a punishing winter patrolling the Strait of Dover aboard HMS Mackerel, Nicholas Everard finds himself leading a secret mission to capture a German trawler. Little does he know it is all in preparation for the Zeebrugge Raid. As dawn breaks on St George’s Day, 1918, the Royal Navy launch a desperate assault on the Belgian submarine base, scuttling multiple blockships to trap the U-boats in the harbour. In sixty minutes of fire and fury, eight Victoria Crosses are won and hundreds of British sailors sink to their deaths. But will Nick be one of them? An extraordinary portrait of violence and valour, perfect for fans of C.S. Forester and Douglas Reeman. “Fullerton again proves his talent for combining historical fact with rousing fiction. . . . [His] presentation of naval action, customs, traditions and life at sea shines with authenticity, and his portrayal of men under fire is breathtaking.” —Publishers Weekly   “A thoroughly likeable hero.” —Kirkus Reviews

  Seeking Arrangements - A Good...

  Halle Hill

  In her dynamic debut, Halle Hill’s Good Women delves into the lives of twelve Black women across the Appalachian South. 
   
  A woman boards a Greyhound bus barreling toward Florida to meet her sugar daddy’s mother; a state fair employee considers revenge on a local preacher; a sister struggles with guilt as she helps her brother plan to run away with a man he's seeing in secret; a young woman who works for a scam for-profit college navigates the lies she sells for a living. 
   
  Darkly funny and deeply human, Good Women observes how place, blood ties, generational trauma, obsession, and boundaries―or lack thereof―influence how we navigate our small worlds, and how those worlds so often collide in ways we don’t expect. Through intimate moments of personal choice, Hill carefully shines a light on how these twelve women shape and form themselves through faith and abandon, transgression and conformity, community, caution, and solitude. 
   
  With precision and empathy, Hill captures the mundane in moments of absurdity, and bears witness to both joy and heartbreak, reminding us how the next moment could be life-changing. Vibrant and exacting, Hill is a must-read new voice in literary fiction.
