  Two books in one box. Willow Rose's I Am Wolf and Song for a Gypsy. Both are part of the Wolfboy Chronicles, the story of the life of Sami the Wolfboy. Originally he was just one of the characters in Song for a Gypsy but later his story was told in I Am Wolf. I Am Wolf: They call me Wolfboy. Of that very simple reason that I am part-wolf, part-boy. I'm not immortal as many people might think, but I will live longer than most. Thousands of years longer. I am immune to all diseases, I am stronger than most other beings on this planet, and I have lived through many wars and sustained much pain in my life that no human could ever do. I heal easily, but I do get hurt. I have. Up until this day, I've never told anyone how I became who or what I am. This is my story. I Am Wolf is a paranormal thriller with some violence and sexual situations recommended for ages 16 and up. Song for a Gypsy: Sara's life is drastically changed the moment a convoy of horse-drawn caravans enters the quiet Reidenburgerstrasse, where she lives with the people she thinks are her parents. Sara doesn't know that her parents found her in a basket on their doorstep 13 years earlier. Neither does she know that she is a gypsy or that she is going to be the greatest sorceress who has ever lived. Soon, Sara will discover a magical world she never knew existed and go on a journey that she knows will cost her dearly. In Song for a Gypsy, we meet Sami the Wolfboy for the first time.

  While the common belief is that “body horror” as a subgenre of horror fiction dates back to the 1970s, Joyce Carol Oates suggests that Medusa, the snakehaired gorgon in Greek mythology, is the “quintessential emblem of female body horror.” In A Darker Shade of Noir: New Stories of Body Horror by Women Writers, Oates has assembled a spectacular cast to explore this subgenre focusing on distortions to the human body in the most fascinating of ways.

  The Dunwich Horror

  H.P. Lovecraft

  "The Old Ones were, the Old Ones are, and the Old Ones shall be."
  
  In the isolated, decaying town of Dunwich, Massachusetts, an inbred, reclusive family harbours dark secrets tied to ancient, otherworldly forces.
  
  When the grotesque Wilbur Whateley grows at an unnatural pace and seeks forbidden knowledge, the boundaries between our world and the cosmic unknown begin to crumble. As invisible forces wreak havoc across the countryside, scholars race to confront a horror that defies all reason—and discover an evil that threatens not just Dunwich, but the very fabric of reality.
  The Dunwich Horror is a prime example of Lovecraft's cosmic horror genre, a chilling tale that embodies the essence of cosmic dread—and suggests that some things are beyond human comprehension and should not be tampered with.
  
  Though virtually unknown and financially unsuccessful during his lifetime, H.P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) is now regarded as one of the most influential 20th-century writers of supernatural horror fiction. Widely credited with inventing the "cosmic horror" genre—fiction that explores humanity's insignificance in the face of vast, unknowable cosmic forces—he also created the "Cthulhu Mythos", a shared universe of ancient alien beings and forbidden knowledge that has influenced generations of horror and science fiction writers.

  When the Montague & Strong Detective Agency gets a visit from the Arctic Society of Sorcery to help them find a missing person, they realize the person they’ve been tasked with locating is the legendary Mr. K.-a mage known for his famous Ritual of Esper which occurs only once every fifty years. 
  The Arctic Society of Sorcery suspects the Greater Krampus, Wrakjan, is behind the abduction, in an effort to sabotage the ritual and unleash a wave of despair and triggering the Gloom. 
  With only a week to complete the ritual, Monty & Strong have little time to find Mr. K and no clue where to start the search. Fortunately, Cece, a Jotnar Ice Mage and Monty’s young apprentice, may have the key to the location of Mr. K. 
  Together they must locate and rescue Mr. K before time runs out, and stop Wrakjan from corrupting the ritual, and plunging the world into darkness.
