  H.P. Lovecraft

  • 0

  The Reanimator series broke the mold on Lovecraft’s writings – becoming one of the earliest serial stories written by Lovecraft, one of the earliest fiction mentions of zombies, and the inspiration for the 1980’s cult classic film. Reanimator follows Herbert west on his mission to fulfil his theory – that the human body can be restarted after death. The series follows through many close misses, zombies, and demon summoning as West tries unsuccessfully to reanimate bodies. Ending with catacombs and, as you might guess, catastrophes – Herbert West: Reanimator is one of Lovecraft’s most beloved and gripping series.

  The Pickwick Papers

  "A dizzying tour of stagecoaches, coaching inns, and the incomparable wit of Old England."
  
  Join the retired businessman and amateur philosopher Samuel Pickwick, Esq., as he leads the eccentric members of the Pickwick Club on a series of expeditions across the English countryside. What begins as a collection of disjointed sketches quickly evolves into a sprawling, hilarious narrative of mistaken identities, legal battles, and social commentary. From the terrifyingly clever rogue Alfred Jingle to the faithful, wisecracking valet Sam Weller—whose "Wellerisms" became a national sensation—this novel captures the joy, absurdity, and occasional darkness of life in the 1830s. The Pickwick Papers isn't just a book; it's the moment the world fell in love with Dickens.
  
  The introduction of Sam Weller changed the course of the novel and Dickens' career. His sharp, street-smart observations and devotion to Mr. Pickwick added a layer of warmth and linguistic playfulness that turned the book into a cultural phenomenon.
  
  Beneath the slapstick and the sports-gone-wrong lies a sharp eye for social absurdity. Dickens takes us from the ridiculous "Pickwickian sense" of political debates to the grim reality of the Fleet Prison, balancing laugh-out-loud comedy with the first glimpses of his lifelong crusade for social justice.
  
  The Pickwick Papers remains a favorite for its sheer abundance of life. It celebrates the virtues of friendship, curiosity, and good-heartedness in a world full of "sharpers" and scoundrels. It is the perfect entry point for anyone wanting to experience the "Inimitable" Dickens at his most joyful.

  Author: Guy de Maupassant 
  Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
  Original Publication: 1885 
  Public Domain: Yes 
  Series Placement: Number 14 in the Timeless Terrors series 
  Description: 
  The Diary of a Madman by Guy de Maupassant is a chilling study of psychological horror and the fragility of sanity. First published in 1885, it presents the private writings of a respected judge whose outward civility hides a dark descent into obsession and cruelty. 
  Told through the intimate form of diary entries, the story reveals the gradual unraveling of a mind — a voice both rational and terrifyingly unhinged. Maupassant strips away the veneer of normalcy to expose the horrors lurking within the human psyche. 
  This recording, narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, captures the eerie intimacy and creeping dread that defines Maupassant’s tale. While the text is in the public domain, this performance is an original work and copyright © 2025 Jonathan Dunne. 
  This audiobook is part of Timeless Terrors, a dedicated series bringing classic horror back to life — stories from the great masters of the macabre, narrated afresh to haunt a new generation. 
  Listeners should be prepared for an unsettling exploration of madness, hidden violence, and the shadows that dwell in ordinary men.

  Anthony Hope - Six of the Best –...

  Six has always been a number we group things around – Six of the best, six of one half a dozen of another, six feet under, six pack, six degrees of separation and a sixth sense are but a few of the ways we use this number. 
   
  Such is its popularity that we thought it is also a very good way of challenging and investigating an author’s work to give width, brevity, humour and depth across six of their very best. 
   
  In this series we gather together authors whose short stories both rivet the attention and inspire the imagination to visit their gems in a series of six, to roam across an author’s legacy in a few short hours and gain a greater understanding of their writing and, of course, to be lavishly entertained by their ideas, their narrative and their way with words. 
   
  These stories can be surprising and sometimes at a tangent to what we expected, but each is fully formed and a marvellous adventure into the world and words of a literary master.
