Author: A. L. Talmadge
Ethira desires, more than anything else, to be herself. An aspiration which seems completely unattainable given the secret power she’s been unfortunate enough to inherit: blood magic. Untrained, her control over the taboo magic is tenuous at best. When her mother finally caves to years of pleading and agrees to teach her, Ethira is ecstatic.
Until the very education she demanded shatters a family secret. When the Undead Prince takes Ethira, her mother, and two youngest siblings hostage, his brutal reputation and unknown motives put them in a precarious position, where one misstep could mean paying the ultimate price. Faced with the frustrating consequences of her ignorance and the imprudent temptation of allying herself with an all too attractive captor, Ethira must fight to save her family from the clutches of the Court of Bones and come to terms with what it actually means to be a blood singer.

Seward is a torturer. He serves the conquerors who broke his kingdom’s army. He gets information from the rebels who were brave enough not to switch sides like he did. Seward is a coward.

Author: Preston Fassel
From the award-winning author of Our Lady of the Inferno comes another tale of New York in the Bad Old Days: A saga of murder, bloodshed, and betrayal set against the backdrop of Times Square at the height of its decadence and depravity.
In the kingdom of the damned that is 42nd Street, there’s no lowlier subject than Andy Lew. An unrepentant junkie, voyeur, and degenerate, he’s only tolerated by the more dangerous men around him because he keeps the projectors at the Colossus theater running on time, entertaining them with the most extreme horror cinema money can buy.
There’s something unique about Andy, though. He owns a movie. It’s the only one of its kind. No one knows who made it. Only he knows where it came from. The woman it stars is beautiful beyond imagination-and the images it depicts are more nightmarish than the darkest depths of Hell. The beasts of 42nd Street will do anything to possess it, but there’s something they don’t understand. Andy loves the woman in the movie-and he’ll go to any lengths to protect her…
A savage love letter to 70s exploitation cinema and a biting satire of toxic fan culture, Beasts of 42nd Street makes horror dangerous again as it ventures into the mind of a psychopath like no other- one that will have readers recoiling even as they keep coming back for more.

Author: Iyapo Yapa
“Kylah Mbaye of the Zahnoka people, lay as silently and still as she could, halfheartedly petitioning the ancestors that at least for one night she would not be spirited away and taken above deck to endure yet another in a procession of endless rapes. Another woman would have long ago given in to despair–but Kylah–in the face of such crushing odds against her and her people within the bowels of this floating nightmare, knew that eventually, this voyage would not end well… for her captors.” And so it began. AND WHAT OF THE CARGO? is a tale of love and hate, tears and triumph, suspense and horror that leads to an unimaginable conclusion.
“The Atlantic crossing, or “Middle Passage,” as it was called by European slavers, was notorious for the number of deaths incurred, averaging in the vicinity of 15-20%”
— Walter Rodney. How Europe Underdeveloped Africa
Much is rightly said and written about the enslavement and fates of Afrikans who were kidnapped from their homeland and transported to the Americas and other lands along the Middle Passage. Absent however is an expanded examination of the fate of those who did not make it through the journey. Whether victims of an inability to survive the unimaginable environment in which they were forced to occupy, or due to murders while attempting to revolt, or by simply jumping overboard, choosing death as a better alternative to chattel enslavement.
What of those ancestors in the depths of the oceans, and what of their souls and spirits. Or to put if bluntly—what of the CARGO?

It’s 1957 and Ed Gein has just been arrested after committing his second murder. Through a series of flashbacks and imagined memories we see Ed’s story through his own eyes while hearing his story through parodies of classic songs. After his mother dies, Ed finally goes completely off the deep end, digging up recently deceased females to be his girlfriends and using their remains for whatever he sees fit, singing his way through the corpses and eventual murders. Once Ed’s deeds are finally found out, the sheriff and his deputies must sort through the wreckage of this unreliable narrator. As a treatise on crazy and a twisted romp through Ed’s imagination, Ed Gein: the Musical manages to be both a wild fantasy and a fairly historically accurate film about Ed’s crimes and capture.

THREE GUYS. ONE GIRL. ONE TWISTED GAME…
Take three dudes different in every way, bond ‘em together by unbreakable brotherhood, and then try to mix in enough romance to go around that won’t split them up. Sound difficult? Yeah. It is. Especially when having three wives and separate lives just won’t cut it for lifelong buddies M, C, and R. Their dream is to share themselves and their home with that certain special someone… The special someone who could share herself with all three. She’s gonna have her hands full with their kinks and cravings. She’s gotta give them all at least a kid each. And she’s got to want all three, despite the variation in their looks and behavior. Next to impossible. That didn’t stop them wishing and waiting for their perfect little girl.
THEY STARTED IT. SHE WILL FINISH IT.
The years seem to pass faster and faster, and casual sex is never enough when you want the white picket fence and brood of rugrats to fill your days. Just when the trio thinks they’ll never find a woman to take them on, it appears fate is merciful, and drops temptation in their path in a feisty, curvy-as-hell package. This temptation, though, could lead them into ruin. They want her. She’s forbidden fruit. So what happens when three decently ordinary guys make one insanely bad decision out of desperation and fear they’ll never find their ‘one’?
They play my game. And if they lose, they stand to lose it all. Small price to pay for my freedom.
