This is the classic novel brought to life in full colour! Bram
Stoker's gothic masterpiece was first published in 1897, and has
spawned so many classic films, all based on the character he
invented when Queen Victoria was on the throne. Like
"Frankenstein", the films have pushed the characters into the very
fabric of our society, so it is with great pride that we bring you
a visual treatment that is true to the original - made even more
exciting by the wonderous talent that is Staz Johnson!
The adventure is over but life goes on for an elf mage just
beginning to learn what living is all about. Elf mage Frieren and
her courageous fellow adventurers have defeated the Demon King and
brought peace to the land. But Frieren will long outlive the rest
of her former party. How will she come to understand what life
means to the people around her? The village priest Sein has no
intention of becoming an adventurer, but his desire to find a
long-lost friend may lead him to join Frieren's party on their
journey north. They are headed for the magical city of AEusserst,
where Frieren can obtain the first-class mage certification needed
to enter the Northern Plateau region. At Frieren's urging, Fern
decides to take the certification exam as well, and faces some
unexpected competition...

Following their acclaimed graphic novel version of 'Kidnapped',
Alan Grant and Cam Kennedy turn their attention to another
Stevenson story. John Utterson notices that his friend, Dr Henry
Jekyll, has been acting very strangely. As he investigates,
Utterson uncovers a terrifying and horrific story.
This book foregrounds the figure of the perpetrator in a selection
of British, American, and Canadian comics and explores questions
related to remembrance, justice, and historical debt. Its primary
focus is on works that deliberately estrange the figure of the
perpetrator-through fantasy, absurdism, formal ambiguity, or
provocative rewriting-and thus allow readers to engage anew with
the history of genocide, mass murder, and sexual violence. This
book is particularly interested in the ethical space such an
engagement calls into being: in its ability to allow us to ponder
the privilege many of us now enjoy, the gross historical injustices
that have secured it, and the debt we owe to people long dead.
Through snapshots of each community, Ellice Weaver captures both
the qualities that make different communities unique, but also what
binds them together to make up the modern, multicultural cities
that we exist in today. Beautifully composed pages introduce us to
each group before we're taken on a short journey inside each of
their worlds. Stunning artwork and wry, odd and moving stories come
together to produce a book that is unique, vibrant and universal.
**AVAILABLE FOR PREORDER NOW** 'The stories Carroll creates have a
deep, literary-grounded feel but they are entirely original. Her
voice is unique and powerful and I, for one, am addicted to it.'
GUILLERMO DEL TORO A contemporary gothic horror and comics classic,
perfect for fans of Neil Gaiman, Joe Hill, Stranger Things and The
Haunting of Hill House I used to dream of Dragons. Abby is settling
into married life: making coffee, cooking for David and her
stepdaughter Crystal, spending evenings curled up together in front
of the TV. For a quiet woman without many friends, she's proud of
the life she has built, and desperately wants to believe they will
all be happy. But what really happened to Crystal's mother, the
artist who no-one speaks of? What secrets does their strange house
by the water harbour, and what of Abby's old dreams and fears, of
Lady Grey, the Knight and the Dragons? In her chilling return - a
story of grief, ghosts, and the struggle to be true to oneself -
Emily Carroll casts another unforgettable spell.
