In the Dark World, Bond opposes the machinations of the dread lord Ganelon and his terrible retinue of werewolves, wizards, and witches, but all is not as it seems in this shadowy mirror of the real world, and Bond discovers that a part of him feels more at home here than he ever has on Earth.

Book excerpt: Swords and Sorcery clash with riveting results in these four classic stories! "[A] pomegranate writer: popping with seeds—full of ideas." —Ray Bradbury When Robert E.

Book excerpt: "Recognized as a leading author of stories published during the Golden Age of science fiction (many in collaboration with his wife, Catherine L. Moore), Henry Kuttner also wrote stories for the horror pulp magazines of the late 30s and early 40s. Terror in the House assembles more than forty rare works from the fragile pages of "Weird Tales" and other pulp magazines of the day. Several tales are set in H.P. Lovecraft's "Cthulhu Mythos" while others are examples of the "weird menace" stories (where a seemingly supernatural plot is resolved with a commonplace ending). Also included are Kuttner's first science fictions stories and his few forays into the "spicy" pulps. Richard Matheson provides a preface and Dr. Garyn G. Roberts' lengthy introduction examines Kuttner's background and influences for these early works"--Dust jacket flap.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two legendary masters of science fiction and fantasy come together in this landmark anthology, filled with gems from the Weird Tales era and beyond. During the weird fiction boom that gave birth to H.P. Lovecraft’s Necronomicon and Robert E. Howard’s Conan the Barbarian, Henry Kuttner and C.L. Moore produced some of the most enduring pieces of speculative fiction in the genre’s history: the sagas of Jirel of Joiry, Northwest Smith of Earth, Galloway Gallegher, and more. Working closely, Kuttner and Moore became a husband and wife team whose work appeared in everything from television and print to the Cthulhu mythos. Both Moore and Kuttner have a legacy that is as acclaimed as it is widely read: Moore received a World Fantasy Award for Lifetime Achievement by the SFWA while Ray Bradbury called Kuttner a "neglected master." Now, for the first time, some of their best work is collected in one anthology, including “Black God’s Kiss,” “Shambleau,” “Graveyard Rats,” “Mimsy Were the Borogoves,” and “The Proud Robot.”
