Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From New York Times bestselling author Douglas Clegg comes the Bram Stoker Award-winning collection The Nightmare Chronicles -- 13 spine-tingling tales of dark mystery, supernatural thrills and twisted horror which "can chill the spine so effectively that the reader should keep paramedics on standby, " says bestselling author Dean Koontz. “Clegg brings his stories together with a chilling fictive conceit....The effect is dangerously seductive.” -- Locus “Clegg's (The Halloween Man, etc.) collection of 13 tales takes risks and is full of passions that sometimes burst forth violently…Clegg's use of innovative metaphors catapults each story beyond a landscape crowded with the horror genre's usual monsters and madmen into a territory he alone can claim.” – Publisher’s Weekly “…Like M. R. James, Douglas Clegg can ‘write about the vile and horrific without seeming to smear it over himself or you.’ Like Shirley Jackson he has an understated precision of language and the ability to portray his characters emotionally in a wickedly effective manner. And, like Stephen King, he loves to tell stories and tells them well. At the same time, Clegg is a thoroughly modern writer...Without doubt, one of the best collections of the year. -- DarkEcho “Every story is perfectly different and definitely unlike any other horror novel/film I’ve read or watched…all of them have their images that could come back to you in your dreams.” – Doubleshot Reviews. “Clegg writes some of the most harrowing, unforgettable tales you're ever likely to come upon.. Clegg's best stories…slip into your subconscious and stay with you well beyond the last turning of the page...” – The Chiaroscuro “I was truly impressed with this collection, and was not surprised to learn that it received the 1999 International Horror Guild Award for Best Collection, and the 1999 Bram Stoker Award for Superior Achievement in a Fiction Collection.” – Casual Debris Contains the short stories "Underworld" "O Rare and Most Exquisite" "The Rendering Man" "The Fruit of Her Womb" "The Hurting Season" "Chosen" "The Night Before Alec Got Married" "Only Connect" "The Little Mermaid," "Damned If You Do" "The Ripening Sweetness of Late Afternoon" Plus the acclaimed novelettes, "White Chapel" and "I Am Infinite, I Contain Multitudes."

Book excerpt: My initial foray into writing, 'My Memoirs,' received a warm reception from my family and friends, their encouraging comments providing the impetus for my next literary adventure. This time, I delved into a subject forged from a series of impactful incidents that peppered my life. Although the idea of sharing these stories through the pages of a book had always played on my mind, the demands of a demanding professional life had relegated it to an unfulfilled desire. Retirement, however, presented the ideal opportunity to fish out and interlace the threads of these real-life incidents into a new book—'The Nightmare Chronicle.' This compilation encapsulates the eerie confrontations and unexplainable incidents that happened at various stages of my life. I am confident that many readers will find resonance in these stories, drawing parallels to their own experiences and discovering a connection within the pages of my book.

When a piece of the Stoneclad is given over to the darkness, all hope seems lost. But somewhere in the distant horizon, the Stoneclad remains true, fighting against the evil within, awaiting its true guardians . . . Secured behind the walls of her tiny village in the Shadowed Mountains, Merryn Swordwielder must choose between the life she knows and the life buried deep within her soul. As the daughter of a village tribune and head of her year, she has every chance at becoming second-in-command upon completion of her wielder elites. A part of her relishes the life she lives; yet she cannot ignore the burning inside, the distant memories singeing against her heart, forcing its way to the surface. A scavenger, Thaddeus travels from village to village foraging through the remains of char and ash, plagued by the dreams of a hidden reality and a promise he made years ago.

His only comfort lies in the sketches of a face-a girl he sees only in his dreams. Only when he finds a relic from his past do events unfold and secrets emerge from the ashes. The Ember Within, the first installment of The Stoneclad Chronicles, takes us on an epic adventure where we learn the amazing power of faith, the humbling reality of self, and the sacred bonds of family. Do we dare chase after that which we cannot see? Is the burning within a desire for good or for evil? Darkness or light? The burning has begun. The ember pulses within. The Stoneclad is waiting.

Download or read book The Mystique Chronicles written by Tina Taylor and published by Author House. This book was released on 2014-12-03 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From beyond the boundaries of infinity and the vastness of immortal consciousness, a prophecy had been conceived within the majestic expanse of the unbound universe. As a result, the Mystique have sprung from the womb of Mother Earth like the phoenix rising up from the still burning embers of "The Desert of Reality." Upon the death of his beloved Cortessa, Demonno was literally drove beyond the brink of insanity, and throughout the ageless millenniums, he had taken it upon himself to single-handedly wipe his own species off the face of the planet. Violet, nearly the last living Mystique in existence, has finally come upon the end of her inevitable journey. Despite the destruction of her species, bitter betrayals, and malignant diversities, Violet has still managed to fulfill a prophecy that is perhaps as ancient as the universe herself. Violet must ultimately pass Samantha Jean Doven--the mothering host of a new breed of Mystique--the proverbial scepter to continue the self-sacrificing journey that she cannot continue. However, in the aftermath of Demonno's reign of terror, he continues his contaminated trail of destruction and will stop at absolutely nothing to finish what he has started and destroy all Mystiques, along with anything or anyone, who is unfortunate enough to cross his path. Samantha must stop this insane beast of hatred and rage and save humankind not only from themselves but Demonno as well. Samantha must find the strength within to carry the Mystique and humankind alike into a new age and a new millennium, because a new time and existence is about to begin. What is life? Life is the decisions we choose to make woven among our destiny and, in the end, all is as it should be.
