Dance of the Dead

Richard Matheson

Dance of the Dead by Richard Matheson
Richard Matheson was an influential American author known for his contributions to science fiction, horror, and fantasy literature. His unique storytelling style and exploration of existential themes have left an indelible mark on the literary world.
Matheson's literary career began in the 1950s when he started writing short stories for magazines like The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction and Galaxy Science Fiction. His early works often featured themes of isolation, fear, and the human condition.
One of Matheson's notable attributes was his versatility as a writer. He effortlessly transitioned between genres, exploring science fiction, horror, fantasy, and even westerns. This diversity allowed him to reach a wide audience and gain recognition across various literary circles.
Matheson's impact on popular culture cannot be overstated. His works have inspired countless writers, filmmakers, and artists across generations. His ability to tap into universal fears and emotions resonates with audiences to this day.
Perhaps Matheson's most famous work, I Am Legend, published in 1954, is a seminal piece of vampire fiction. The novel, set in a post-apocalyptic world overrun by vampires, explores themes of loneliness, survival, and the human psyche.
Another significant work by Matheson, The Shrinking Man (1956), tells the story of a man who begins to shrink after being exposed to a radioactive cloud. The novel delves into themes of identity, mortality, and the insignificance of humanity in the face of the unknown.
Hell House (1971) is a chilling tale of a haunted house and the team of investigators tasked with uncovering its secrets. Matheson masterfully blends elements of horror and psychological suspense, creating a gripping narrative that keeps readers on the edge of their seats.

Enchanted Grove of Lumina The -...

Christopher Allen

THE ENCHANTED GROVE OF LUMINA
Book 5 of 6 The Shadowed Shard
Following on from Book 4– The Shattered Prism this story is summarized as follows:
Lyra and her companions face a new threat as the grove’s balance falters. A missing shard of the Prism, stolen by Malachar’s lingering influence, draws them to the treacherous Shadowed Vale, a realm of shifting light and darkness. There, they confront haunting visions and a shadowy guardian, testing their resolve. After reclaiming the shard, they battle Malachar, who seeks to unleash chaos. Though they temporarily banish him, his shadow lingers, and the Prism remains incomplete. As strange disturbances plague the grove, Lyra vows to protect it, knowing the battle for balance is far from over.
This is the fifth of six audiobooks in the series, the last will become available in the very near future and I do hope you enjoy this fifth instalment, and it's only $3, all subsequent will remain at that price as I would not like price to be a barrier to your enjoyment.
I have worked very hard and meticulously to provide you with an enjoyable experience, the initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2 minutes sets the scene, so to speak, harp, violin, glockenspiel in a classical but uplifting form. The closing music ends the tale on a more restrained note and at about 2 minutes and the same musical instruments but more dreamy and ethereal effect.
The story itself runs to about 11 1/2 minutes and is narrated in my own voice.
I do hope you and your family, if applicable, enjoy this audiobook and let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come!
