Sinopse

The Jersey Files is a spine-tingling collection of spooky short stories, woven from the Island's ancient myths and legends by talented writers from Jersey's schools. With contributions from award-winning author Peter J. Murray, each tale unfolds around the mysterious shores. This collaborative project follows the success of The Darker Side of Wight, a chilling collection of short stories set on the Isle of Wight.
 
Inspired by those tales, schools across Jersey embarked on a creative journey, crafting their own eerie narratives through workshops and guidance from Peter. Haunting illustrations by artist Paul Bryn Davies breathe life into these stories, creating a bewitching collection that captures the Island's rich folklore and otherworldly atmosphere.
 
This collection not only promotes literacy, creativity, and a love of storytelling but also showcases the imaginative power of Jersey's next generation of writers and readers.

    A cinematic tale of passion, war, loyalty, betrayal, and retribution “These events I relate are the living seeds, and they will bear bloody fruit, I promise.” So says Ulysses, King of Ithaca, as he recounts the origins of the Trojan War. Renowned Greek mythologist Bernard Evslin masterfully depicts the ten-year war: its beginnings rooted in discord among the gods; the seduction of the famed beauty Helen of Troy; and the spectacular development of the Trojan Horse, Ulysses’ cunning ploy to win the war. Evslin brings to life the dramatic twists and turns of this classic tale of human folly, mortal heroism, and the brutality and brilliance that have come down through the ages.

    Process by A. E. van Vogt - An ancient intelligence stirs, locked in a struggle for survival against forces both familiar and alien. But when outsiders arrive with their own secret agenda, the battle takes an unexpected and perilous turn. 
    Alfred Elton van Vogt, (A. E. van Vogt) was born on April 26, 1912, in Edenburg, Manitoba, Canada, and grew up on a series of remote farms in the prairies before his family eventually settled in Winnipeg. A shy and introspective child, he developed a love for stories at an early age, devouring books and radio dramas while imagining vast adventures of his own. Before turning to science fiction, van Vogt worked as a census taker, farmhand, and in advertising, sharpening his skills as a writer with confession stories and radio scripts. 
    In 1939, inspired by reading the landmark issue of Astounding Science Fiction that featured John W. Campbell’s vision of a “new wave” of science fiction, van Vogt decided to devote himself fully to the genre. His first published story, “Black Destroyer,” appeared in Astounding in July 1939 and made an immediate impact. From that moment, van Vogt emerged as one of the Golden Age’s most influential authors.

    Doorstep by Keith Laumer - The general was bucking for his other star—and this miserable contraption bucked right back! 
    Steadying his elbow on the kitchen table serving as desk, Brigadier General Straut leveled his binoculars and stared out through the second-floor window of the farmhouse at the bulky object lying canted at the edge of the wood lot. He watched the figures moving over and around the gray mass, then flipped the lever on the field telephone at his elbow. 
    "How are your boys doing, Major?" 
    "General, since that box this morning—" 
    "I know all about the box, Bill. So does Washington by now. What have you got that's new?" 
    "Sir, I haven't got anything to report yet. I have four crews on it, and she still looks impervious as hell." 
    "Still getting the sounds from inside?" 
    "Intermittently, General." 
    "I'm giving you one more hour, Major. I want that thing cracked." 
    The general dropped the phone back on its cradle and peeled the cellophane from a cigar absently. He had moved fast, he reflected, after the State Police notified him at nine forty-one last night. He had his men on the spot, the area evacuated of civilians, and a preliminary report on its way to Washington by midnight. At two thirty-six, they had discovered the four-inch cube lying on the ground fifteen feet from the huge object—missile, capsule, bomb—whatever it was. But now—several hours later—nothing new. 
    The field phone jangled. Straut grabbed it up.
