    Dracula is a novel by an Irish writer Sir Abraham "Bram" Stoker that was first published in 1897. The stories about vampires were created and published numerously earlier than this famous novel. But it won't be an exaggeration to say that it was Sir Stoker, who managed to write a thing that became a basis for the whole era of "vampire novels". And it is still continuing. Jonathan Harker, a lawyer from London moves on business to Transylvania. He was invited by a local earl to register a real estate purchase in England. The purchase of a deserted abbey is registered. But the name of a buyer is a little strange, it's Dracula…

    Herbert George Wells (1866-1946) was a prolific English writer, now best remembered for his science fiction novels and often credited as being the father of science fiction.'The Apple' is a strange tale about a young student who, in a third-class railway carriage, is unexpectedly offered the genuine fruit of the Tree of Knowledge from the Garden of Eden by a stranger with piercing grey eyes. The strange tale of how the stranger came to have the fruit is almost as unusual as the story of what the student then did with it.

    A propulsive story that is just as much an adventure as it is a self-help guide, Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board is much more than child’s play. It’s the key to unlocking the mysteries and meaning of life. 
    When a professional thief chooses to reverse his ethical alignment and starts using his skills for altruistic purposes, it leads him to unlocking hidden wisdom that dramatically elevates his physical capabilities and awareness of man’s place in the Universe, while concurrently leading him down the path of uncovering a nefarious underground syndicate that implicates those in the highest reaches of society and power. 
    Through his journey, he explores subjects such as self-discipline, the encroachment of technology into daily life, and eventually, catastrophic natural disasters, terrorism, and Armageddon, all as he navigates through enlightening moments counterintuitive to modern conventional and prevailing thought.

    The Soprano - A Haunting...

    It is 1951 and a remote mining village on the North Staffordshire Moors is hit by one of the worst snowstorms in living memory. Cut off for over three weeks, the old and the sick will die; the strongest bunker down; and those with evil intent will bring to its conclusion a family vendetta spanning three generations. 
    Inspired by a true event, The Soprano tells the story of Grace Holland—a strikingly beautiful, much admired local celebrity who brings glamour and inspiration to the grimy moorland community. But why is Grace still here? Why doesn't she leave this staunchly Methodist, rain-sodden place and the isolated farmhouse she shares with her mother? 
    Riddled with witchcraft and tales of superstition, the story is mostly narrated by the Whistler family who own the local funeral parlour, in particular six year old Louise—now an elderly lady—who recalls one of the most shocking crimes imaginable.
