  Durante just does his job and hopes he gets a break. When he's not drinking or enjoying some good eats, he's policing Vampires of all things with the aid of an Empath who's not really his type. Meanwhile, two nefarious Vamps by the names of Ryker and Malik are brewing up a storm with hopes of a takeover, or at the very least upsetting the Vampire-Human coexistence. 
   If that isn't enough, his pals are dropping like flies. 
   Now it's up to Durante and a couple of shrewd agents to get to the bottom of the recent slayings and uncover the mystery to a set of books known as the Lycan. They must, before the wrong hands do, and the world plummets into a kind of hell, that which no one, not even Vampires, wants to enter. 
   Blood matters.

  After eighteen months staying home under rolling pandemic lockdowns with her girlfriend Joy, artist Thea Palmer has decided the strained relationship has run its course and she's ready to end it—right after the stress of her birthday has passed. 
  Unfortunately, her surprise party comes with a special gift from Joy that puts the breakup on hold: a week-long cabin rental in the tiny northern Ontario community of Hope Falls, for just the two of them. 
  No phone. 
  No internet. 
  No contact with the outside world. 
  Joy says it'll give them the perfect chance to reconnect and maybe restore Thea's creativity after pandemic stress wearing down her desire to paint. But the cabin creaks at night under invisible steps, and the woods have trees that seem to shift in the corner of her eye. Thea swears she sees a strange white figure on the lake beckoning to her and an empty boat that drifts by in the early morning mist. 
  And Joy...Joy seems to be someone else entirely.

  The Testament of Magdalen Blair...

  Aleister Crowley

  Edward Alexander Crowley was born on 12th October 1875 to wealthy parents in Royal Leamington Spa in Warwickshire. 
   
  He was educated at Malvern College, Tonbridge School, Eastbourne College and finally Trinity College, Cambridge where he focused on his passions of mountaineering and poetry and published several volumes. 
   
  Life for Crowley was to abandon his parents’ Christian faith and instead to inject himself into Western esotericism.  In 1898, he joined the esoteric Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn and was trained in ceremonial magic before studying both Hindu and Buddhist practices in India. 
   
  On his Egyptian honeymoon in 1904 he claimed contact with an entity―Aiwass―who gave him the sacred Book of the Law which served as the basis for the Thelema religion where he identified as its prophet.  During the Great War, which he spent in the United States, he claimed to be working for British Intelligence but by the 1920s he had decamped to pursue a libertine lifestyle in Sicily, and in the ensuing scandals was evicted by the Italian Government. 
   
  He divided the following two decades between France, Germany, and England, and the continuing promotion of Thelema. 
   
  During his life he gained widespread notoriety for his drug use, his bisexuality, and his alarming views on society.  In short, polite society frowned on his ways, his thoughts and his influence but to many others his stance had much of value.  Even after death he was a darling for the 60’s counterculture but his influence has since waned.   
   
  His literary works were both prolific and covered many topics.  In the early part of his career he published many poetry books, even plays, before his darker and more forceful works came to dominate his output. 
   
  Aleister Crowley died on 1st December 1947 at Hastings in England. He was 72.

  Step beyond the time machine and into the untold realms of H. G. Wells.
   
  The Forgotten Worlds of H. G. Wells is a curated collection of 14 masterfully written short stories — strange, stirring, and visionary tales that have quietly stood in the shadow of his more famous works. Here, Wells explores the edges of science, consciousness, and the unknown with unsettling brilliance and lyrical force.
   
  Narrated with calm intensity by Lucy Walker, these lesser-known stories range from cosmic catastrophes and sea-dwelling horrors to mysterious artefacts, moral dilemmas, and eerie fables that echo across time. Whether it's the haunting tranquility of The Door in the Wall, the unnerving realism of The Star, or the psychological twists of The Moth, each story invites you to see the world — and the human condition — through Wells’ radically curious lens.
   
  Perfect for fans of classic speculative fiction, thoughtful science fiction, and the weirdly wonderful, this audiobook revives the forgotten gems of a literary pioneer. If you’ve only read Wells for Martians and machines, you’re only scratching the surface.

  The Country of the Blind
  The Door in the Wall
  The Sea Raiders
  The Treasure in the Forest
