Sharks - the ultimate predators, masters of their watery domain, a
world that is entirely alien and inhospitable to man. So many
aspects of the shark are associated with humankind's most primal
fears. The tell-tale dorsal fin slicing through the water, the dead
eyed-stare, the gaping jaws full to unforgiving teeth, the
remorseless drive to kill and feed...Inspired by such classic pulp
movies as Jaws and Deep Blue Sea - as well as such ludicrous
delights as Sharknado and Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus - the stories
contained within are rip-roaring page-turners and slow-build
chillers that celebrate all things savage, pulp and selachian.
Covering the whole range of speculative fiction genres, from horror
and Steampunk, through to SF and WTF, these are stories with bite!
Come on in. The water's fine...
An interesting compendium of the origins of familiar Christmas
customs and traditions. Green speculates on such matters as the
identity of the three kings, explains such mysteries as the
reasoning behind the date of Christmas and the development of the
Advent calendar and the Christmas cracker, and asks, in the words
of Brian's Mum: "What is myrrh anyway?" You'll find out here.

moth to a flame, digging deep in your pocket you pull out a shiny
coin and thumb it into the slot as the electronic siren sings the
fanfare that marks your arrival. One hand on the joystick, the
other splayed across the control buttons, your pulse begins to
quicken. Ready Player One Press StartYou've barely begun but
suddenly the discordant bleeps are trumpeting your failure as your
8-bit adventure comes to an abrupt end. At least in the world of
the video arcade you get a second chance. But what is the true
price you pay when you make a pact with the digital demon? There's
always another coin, an extra life to be earned, a second
chance...Isn't there?GAME OVERA dozen stories of creeping dread and
savage horror inspired by the humble amusement arcade and the
classic coin-ops of yesteryear. Twelve tales to chill your blood by
twelve masters of the malevolent and the macabre.Just keep
reminding yourself, it's only a game...Isn't it?

Shakespeare Vs Cthulhu An anthologie of fine stories inspir'd by
the Bard of Stratford and the Lovecraftian Mythos Imagine if it had
been William Shakespeare, England's greatest playwright, who had
discovered the truth about the Great Old Ones and the cosmic entity
we know as Cthulhu, rather than the American horror writer H P
Lovecraft. Imagine if Stratford's favourite son had been the one to
learn of the dangers of seeking after forbidden knowledge and of
the war waged between the Elder Gods in the Outer Darkness, and had
passed on that message, to those with eyes to see it, through his
plays and poetry. Welcome to the world of Shakespearean Cthulhu! To
mark the 400th anniversary of the death of William Shakespeare,
Snowbooks proudly presents fifteen stories of eldritch horror that
blend the Bard's most famous plays with Lovecraft's most terrifying
creations. But before you dip into this cursed tome, be warned -
that way madness lies...
This is the first English translation of Theuerdank which makes the
volume useful and more accessible to a much larger audience.
Accompanied by over 100 woodcut images, students are able to more
fully comprehend how this text would have been understood to its
original sixteenth-century audience. With the inclusion of an
introductory essay, chronology, genealogical tables, maps,
translator's note, and discussion questions, the volume is a useful
resource for discussion and prompts students to think about
European soceity and culture more broadly during the sixteenth
century.
