Book excerpt: #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • This installment in the Killer Instinct Series tells the chilling story of a manipulative serial killer and the two brilliant police agents who must beat him at his own game, Detectives Joona Linna and Saga Bauer. “With its tight, staccato chapters and cast of dangerous wraiths lurking everywhere, The Sandman is a nonstop fright.” —Janet Maslin, The New York Times Late one night, outside Stockholm, Mikael Kohler-Frost is found wandering. Thirteen years earlier, he went missing along with his younger sister. They were long thought to have been victims of Sweden's most notorious serial killer, Jurek Walter, now serving a life sentence in a maximum security psychiatric hospital. Now Mikael tells the police that his sister is still alive and being held by someone he knows only as the Sandman. Years ago, Detective Inspector Joona Linna made an excruciating personal sacrifice to ensure Jurek's capture. He is keenly aware of what this killer is capable of, and now he is certain that Jurek has an accomplice. He knows that any chance of rescuing Mikael's sister depends on getting Jurek to talk, and that the only agent capable of this is Inspector Saga Bauer, a twenty-seven-year-old prodigy. She will have to go under deep cover in the psychiatric ward where Jurek is imprisoned, and she will have to find a way to get to the psychopath before it's too late—and before he gets inside her head.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Novelist, comics writer, scriptwriter, poet, occasional artist - a master of several genres and inadvertent leader of many cults - there are few creative avenues Neil Gaiman hasn't ventured down. From unforgettable books like The Ocean at the End of the Lane and American Gods to ground-breaking comics and graphic novels like The Sandman and Violent Cases; from big screen fantasies like Coraline to small screen epics like Doctor Who; and from short stories to songwriting, stage plays to radio plays, journalism to filmmaking, and all points in-between, The Art of Neil Gaiman is the first comprehensive, full-colour examination of Gaiman's work to date. Author Hayley Campbell, a close friend of Neil's since she was a small child, spent many months rummaging through Neil's attic to source the never-before-seen manuscripts, notes, cartoons, drawings and personal photographs for this book; these are complemented by artwork and sketches from all of his major works and his own intimate recollections. Each project is examined in turn, from genesis to fruition, and positioned in the wider narrative of Gaiman's creative life, affording unparalleled access to the inner workings of the writer's mind. Utterly comprehensive, lavishly illustrated, The Art of Neil Gaiman is the fully authorised account of the life and work of one of the greatest storytellers of all time.

With a strong element of the fantastic in the form of haunted dreams and foes claiming to be figures of myth, these stories were perfect examples of the fast-paced, slam-bang adventures that made Simon & Kirby the most celebrated comics talents of the 1940s.

Book excerpt: The technicians were sitting in front of the control panel to the main computer when they heard it. Deep in the underground nuclear facility three explosions ripped through the complex, tossing everyone violently against their desks and to the floor. The printer switched on and sheets of paper with automated-typed words spewed out at an incredible rate. A man ran to the printer and grabbed the papers. "What do they read?" Dr. Balim asked. There was a touch of desperation in his tone. The technician swallowed the growing lump in his throat and slowly raised his eyes to meet the doctor. "The Emergency Core-Coolant System has shut down!" The sudden gasp from those in the room was deafening. "What is going on here?" Colonel Benghazi asked. "My God...It's him," said Captain Mourak, who was standing behind him. "Can you be more specific?" Colonel Benghazi was becoming impatient. "It's the saboteur, you fool!" At Iran's Bushehr Nuclear Research Facility the countdown to nuclear disaster begins when the C.I.A.'s top saboteur codenamed: Sandman strikes a devastating blow. Deep in the underground facility a raging fire has knocked out the coolant system and threatens a reactor core meltdown. To save the reactor the Iranians must get the coolant back in operation...But the Sandman has barricaded himself in the alternate secondary control room to prevent that from happening...And so a brilliant army officer takes charge and is prepared to do whatever it takes to stave off disaster. The situation quickly becomes a match of wits as the Sandman defends himself in deadly gunfights against soldiers trying to retake the control room...And as the clock ticks he not only loses time to make good his escape, but the temperature in the reactor core quickly rises...and with each passing second bringing them closer to nuclear disaster!

Book excerpt: NONE CAN ESCAPE THE SANDMAN'S DARK DREAMS The year is 1938, and the world is holding its breath-mesmerized by the onrushing storm that will soon engulf it in fire and steel. In New York City, one man's sleep is filled with tormenting visions of the evils that mankind visits upon itself, compelling him to act. And so, by night, Wesley Dodds lays aside the trappings of his inherited wealth to roam the shadows as the Sandman, armed with a tranquilizing gas gun and driven by an unrelenting sense of justice. Haunted and obsessed, the Sandman moves through a decadent, post-Depression landscape, stalking the predators who hide themselves beneath society's callous indifference to the weak and vulnerable. No one sees him at his work until he chooses to reveal himself-no one, that is, except the woman who is destined to be the light to his darkness. Written by comics legends Matt Wagner and Steven T. Seagle and illustrated by acclaimed artists Guy Davis and Vince Locke, this second volume of the complete SANDMAN MYSTERY THEATRE also includes the never-before-reprinted SANDMAN MYSTERY THEATRE ANNUAL #1, featuring stunning guest artwork from Alex Ross, David Lloyd, John Bolton and more.
