The result of this effort is the book, Iron Menagerie, which explains how to forge fifteen different animal heads. Blacksmith Paul Hubler (who hammered out all the projects in this book) is present throughout in pictures and text to explain each and every step in forging an animal head.

Book excerpt: Marlene D. Morèl is an emotionally troubled Chinese-American teenage girl growing up in Utopia-Zurich, Switzerland. To avoid her drunk, abusive father, who is the Swiss version of Oscar Wilde and her American mother, a has-been soap opera star, who has no interest in her chubby, slant-eyed daughter, Marlene spends most of her time hiding inside the warehouse, which houses the family business, Morèl Theatrical Costumier. Preferring life among mannequins, props and costumes, Marlene has created over the years, a life of make-believe, where her imagination runs rampant. Trouble is, unbeknownst to her, she's also created an alter-ego named Bad Egg who happens to be a 'toon' and who wants to eliminate Marlene's personality all together. And to make things worse, Bad Egg has also created an alter-ego ego in the form of Kali, the Hindu Goddess of Sex and Destruction who plans on murdering Marlene's abusive father. Between these three out of control personalities, not to mention, Marlene's difficult circumstances with both parents, the poor girl ends up in a mental institution. With the help of a Jungian psychologist named Dr. Karin Sommerfeldt, Marlene D. Morèl's multiple act of misfits finally become solo again. Deflection of Pig-Ponies is a cross between the films, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and American Beauty.

Book excerpt: Fair Harbor is a novel by Joseph Crosby Lincoln. Lincoln was an American writer of novels, rhymes and short stories. Excerpt: "The old white horse—like the whisk broom and the Rogers group, a part of the furniture of the General Minot place—plodded along the dusty road and the blue truck-wagon rolled and rattled behind him. Captain Kendrick, settling his invalid limbs in the most comfortable fashion, lay back upon the seaweed and stared at the sky seen through 28the branches of elms and silver-leaf poplars which arched above. He made no attempt to look over the sides of the cart. Raising himself upon an elbow to do so entailed a good deal of exertion and this was his first trip abroad since his accident. Besides, seeing would probably mean being seen and he was not in the mood to answer the questions of curious, even if sympathetic, townsfolk."

Download or read book Poison Mercy written by E.C. Elvedeane and published by Strange Fictions Press. This book was released on 2018-11-28 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A bawdy and fun Steampunk adventure, Poison and Mercy is an alternative history Steampunk spoof that evokes the underground erotica of the Victorian era. Mirroring the debauchery of London’s late 19th century Holywell Street and its outlawed printing presses, Poison and Mercy is a delightfully witty send-up with a fast-paced action-adventure story and characters that readers can’t help but root for. It’s 1885, and the people of London are suffering under clouds of acid while the Thames burns. Nothing has been seen or heard from within the borders of an increasingly belligerent Germany for several years: the Mediterranean is plagued by the Corsair Queens and their fleet of pirate airships, and a dastardly foreign plot to take control of the British Empire is afoot. Who can save the day? Enter Poison and Mercy d’Avalon, a pair of notorious adventuresses with a talent for the amoral, who are hired to eliminate a blackmail threat to a Very Important Person in the royal family. It is task that seems simple enough, but it is one that is soon complicated by murder and the machinations of an implacable and remorseless enemy. Poison and Mercy must endure one scandalous episode after another as their travels take them from London to Berlin to Cairo, and finally to a hidden pit of corruption buried beneath the blazing heart of the Empire’s capital. Imprisoned and stripped (on several occasions). Abandoned and enslaved in the desert. Forced to endure an evening of music-hall comedy. How long can two English roses be denied access to the best shops and restaurants before they start to sharpen their thorns and set about taking their revenge? Not very, apparently.

Book excerpt: Following Perdido Street Station and The Scar, acclaimed author China Miéville returns with his hugely anticipated Del Rey hardcover debut. With a fresh and fantastical band of characters, he carries us back to the decadent squalor of New Crobuzon—this time, decades later. It is a time of wars and revolutions, conflict and intrigue. New Crobuzon is being ripped apart from without and within. War with the shadowy city-state of Tesh and rioting on the streets at home are pushing the teeming city to the brink. A mysterious masked figure spurs strange rebellion, while treachery and violence incubate in unexpected places. In desperation, a small group of renegades escapes from the city and crosses strange and alien continents in the search for a lost hope. In the blood and violence of New Crobuzon’s most dangerous hour, there are whispers. It is the time of the iron council. . . . The bold originality that broke Miéville out as a new force of the genre is here once more in Iron Council: the voluminous, lyrical novel that is destined to seal his reputation as perhaps the edgiest mythmaker of the day. BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from China Miéville’s Embassytown.
