    Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media, narrated by Matthew Schmitz, with full sound production by the Russian Comic Book Geek. 
    Deep in the sweltering jungles of South America, two explorers — Falmer and Thone — stumble upon a forgotten ruin, hidden beneath centuries of tangled growth and silence. Within its shadowed chambers lies an ancient tomb, undisturbed, its secrets sealed in stone and time. 
    But something lingers in the sepulchre. 
    Something old. Something alive. Something that does not sleep. 
    As one of the men becomes obsessed with a strange, unidentifiable seed found within the tomb, the boundary between plant and predator, dream and nightmare, begins to rot and dissolve. What blooms from ancient soil may not be content to remain buried. 
    A lush, unsettling blend of botanical horror and lost-world myth, The Seed from the Sepulchre is Clark Ashton Smith at his most vivid and uncanny — a tale of beauty, dread, and the terrible persistence of life.

    Pagan Babies is classic crime fiction from the master of suspense, New York Times bestselling author Elmore Leonard.  
    Father Terry Dunn thought he'd seen everything on the mean streets of Detroit, but that was before he went on a little retreat to Rwanda to evade a tax-fraud indictment. Now the whiskey-drinking, Nine Inch Nails T-shirt-wearing padre is back trying to hustle up a score to help the little orphans of Rwanda. 
    But the fund-raising gets complicated when a former tattletale cohort pops up on Terry's tail. And then there's the lovely Debbie Dewey. A freshly sprung ex-con turned stand-up comic, Debbie needs some fast cash, too, to settle an old score. Now they're in together for a bigger payoff than either could finagle alone. After all, it makes sense...unless Father Terry is working a con of his own.
