Book excerpt: Ghosts are among us. On the other side of death, the spirits of departed souls have been part of human myths and beliefs as long as anyone can recall. Some of the most powerful and affecting images in fiction are of ghosts, spirits, visitations from beyond the veil of death. Ellen Datlow, an editor whose stellar career has garnered her World Fantasy Awards, a Stoker Award, and a Hugo Award, has long been fascinated by ghosts. Now she has brought together an array of all-new, original ghost stories for the shivering delight of readers who are ready to be frightened. And that's no idle threat. These are not friendly ghost stories. This book is called The Dark because the editor asked her favorite authors specifically for stories that would provoke fear or disquietude, tales that would cause shivers down the spine and make readers want to keep a light on when they retire to bed for the night. The authors who answered her call compose an all-star cast of brilliant storytellers, including such award-winning, certifiably masterful authors as Ramsey Campbell, Jeffrey Ford, Charles L. Grant, Glen Hirshberg, Kathe Koja, Tanith Lee, Kelly Link, Sharyn McCrumb, Joyce Carol Oates, Lucius Shepard, and Gahan Wilson. Frighteningly good writers. Each has penned a unique tale unlike any of the others. All have cast dark spells that are sure to inspire fear or unease in the hardiest of readers.

Decidedly non-canonical and definitely not Politically Correct, this long overdue reprint of The American Writer celebrates the nation’s whole literary history from its roots to its crowning achievements up to the year 2000.

Book excerpt: The dream always started the same... Psychologist Meredith Morgan understands the how and why of dreams. She understands that dreams are how our subconscious mind tells us things we are too busy to notice. It was a nearly senseless dream... She understands that some see dreams as prophetic, as the future reaching back and giving us a clue as to what is to come. Some see dreams as open doors through which the past can claw its way into the present. Dreams are where time and space collapse. Meredith awoke... But dreams are dreams, and when you wake up, the people you meet in your dreams shouldn’t still be with you...

Download or read book The Off Season written by Jack Cady and published by Resurrection House. This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a curse on Point Vestal. Time moves differently in this sleepy Northwestern coastal town, where the ghosts of the past roam the streets as readily as the living inhabitants. It's still the late 19th century, and underneath the quaint touristy allure of the commingling of the past and present is a lurking darkness. August Starling, a decadent (and dead) crime baron, has a plan for Point Vestal because the magical nature of the town is a haven for sinners fleeing judgment for their crimes. And the only residents who can stop him are newcomers to town: a defrocked Episcopalian priest and a talking cat, who is fluent in seven languages. The Off Season is an effusive meditation on the nature of the fantastic, by a writer the Atlanta Constitution calls "a lasting voice in modern American literature." Cady, winner of both the Nebula and the World Fantasy Award, has given us "a consummate yarn, told with many digressions and anecdotes that combine with folksy humor to create a tall tale suffused with pathos and melancholy." (The Seattle Times)

Download or read book Hope of Glory written by Scott White and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2020-03-02 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hope is an often-used word. “I hope they win this,” you say about the big game. “I hope I’m not late,” you say before the job interview. At other times, you cling to hope. “I hope I’ll be a good parent,” you whisper to that newborn. “I hope they find out what it is,” you say waiting for test results. We all have hopes. But sometimes they are lost in struggles, burdens, heartaches, and despair. Sometimes, we sink into hopelessness. In Hope of Glory, author and minister Scott White shares a message of hope through Paul’s words in 1 Corinthians. “Faith, hope, and love abide.” Through a mixture of scripture, parables, and personal reflections, White analyzes men and women in the Bible who have found hope and some who have lost it. Hope of Glory encourages you to fill your own lives with faith, fill your days with love, and fill your hearts with hope.

Download or read book Singleton written by Jack Cady and published by Resurrection House. This book was released on 2017-03-14 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "There was one good thing and that was the truck. Any time the weight got too heavy you could at least be free, or at least look free. You could climb in the rig and go." Singleton wasn't a simple man; he merely has simple needs, and he speaks them simply. He hauls cargo across the United States, and lives a life that many would classify as that of a drifter. But Singleton chose the road. He chose the endless hauling and empty destinations. Not because he was fleeing any sort of stable, constant life, but because he was working. And working was all he knew. Much like Hemingway and Steinbeck, Cady wrote about the condition of the American working man. Singleton is both a memoir of and a meditation on the open road, written by the writer the Atlanta Constitution calls "a lasting voice in modern American literature."
