of The Silent Companions ______________ Long before Charles Dickens
and Henry James popularized the tradition, the shadowy nights of
winter have been a time for people to gather together by the
flicker of candlelight and experience the intoxicating thrill of a
ghost story. Now eight bestselling, award-winning authors - all of
them master storytellers of the sinister and the macabre - bring
the tradition to vivid life in a spellbinding new collection of
original spine-tingling tales. Taking you from the frosty Fens to
the wild Yorkshire moors, to the snow-covered grounds of a haunted
estate, to a bustling London Christmas market, these mesmerizing
stories will capture your imagination and serve as your
indispensable companion to the cold, dark nights. So curl up, light
a candle, and fall under the spell of winters past . . .
The dazzling companion volume to the bestselling MYTHOS. There are heroes - and then there are Greek heroes.
Few mere mortals have ever embarked on such bold and heart-stirring adventures, overcome myriad monstrous perils, or outwitted scheming vengeful gods, quite as stylishly and triumphantly as Greek heroes.
In this companion to his bestselling Mythos, Stephen Fry brilliantly retells these dramatic, funny, tragic and timeless tales. Join Jason aboard the Argo as he quests for the Golden Fleece. See Atalanta - who was raised by bears - outrun any man before being tricked with golden apples. Witness wily Oedipus solve the riddle of the Sphinx and discover how Bellerophon captures the winged horse Pegasus to help him slay the monster Chimera.
Heroes is the story of what we mortals are truly capable of - at our worst and our very best.
