The Silver Empire is in ruins. War is in the wind. Kagen and his
allies are on the run from the Witch-king. Wild magic is running
rampant everywhere. Spies and secret cabals plot from the shadows
of golden thrones. Kagen Vale is the most wanted man in the world,
with a death sentence on his head and a reward for him -dead or
alive-that would tempt a saint. The Witch-king has new allies who
bring a terrible weapon - a cursed disease that drives people into
a murderous rage. If the disease is allowed to spread, the whole of
the West will tear itself apart. In order to build an army of
resistance fighters and unearth magical weapons of his own, Kagen
and his friends have to survive attacks and storms at sea, brave
the haunted wastelands of the snowy north, fight their way across
the deadly Cathedral Mountains, and rediscover a lost city filled
with cannibal warriors, old ghosts, and monsters from other worlds.
Along with his reckless adventurer brothers, Kagen races against
time to save more than the old empire. if he fails the world will
be drenched in a tsunami of bloodshed and horror. Son of the Poison
Rose weaves politics and espionage, sorcery and swordplay,
treachery and heroism as the damned outcast Kagen fights against
the forces of ultimate darkness.
JOE LEDGER's world has been torn apart. The people closest to him
have been savagely murdered and Ledger is on the hunt for the
killers. His already fragile psyche has cracked apart, allowing a
dangerous darkness to overwhelm him. His hunt takes him deep into
the world of the deadly black market weapons sales, and standing in
his way are a new generation of private military contractors. These
mercenaries have been enhanced with cutting-edge cybernetics and
chemical enhancements, transforming them into real-world super
soldiers. Stronger, faster, harder to hurt, and fitted with
built-in weapons. They are beyond anything Joe has ever faced. But
he is not the Joe Ledger they expected to fight. He is defined by
the Darkness now. The attempt to destroy him - to break him - has
backfired. Instead his enemies have turned him into a far more
fearsome weapon. Everyone is out for blood.
Joe Ledger and Rogue Team International plunge into mortal peril as
this new and deadly arms race threatens to ignite new wars
throughout the Middle East. After years of searching, a new cave
filled with Dead Sea Scrolls is found, and among them are bizarre
books of actual magic. Terrorist groups and multinational
corporations scramble to acquire these treasures in the hopes that
magic is the true WMD of the 21st Century. But everyone who goes
near those scrolls goes insane. The fabric of reality is shredding.
Is this the result of ancient magic, or is it a new bioweapon that
fractures the mind of anyone exposed? Cave 13 pits Joe Ledger
against warring factions of ideological terrorism, corporate greed,
and massive international crime syndicates in what might well
become a new Age of Miracles.

1-800-555-0606 How lucky do you feel? So reads the business card
from LIMBUS, INC., a shadowy employment agency that operates at the
edge of the normal world. LIMBUS's employees are just as suspicious
and ephemeral as the motives of the company, if indeed it could be
called a company in the ordinary sense of the word. In this
shared-world anthology, five heavy hitters from the dark worlds of
horror, fantasy, and scifi pool their warped takes on the shadow
organization that offers employment of the most unusual kind to
those on the fringes of society. One thing's for sure - you'll
never think the same way again about the fine print on your next
employment application

Winner of the Bram Stoker Award for Best First Novel From a new
master of horror comes an apocalyptic showdown between the
residents of a secluded, rural town and the deadly evil that
confronts them wherever they turn . . . Evil Doesn't Die The cozy
little town of Pine Deep buried the horrors of its past a long time
ago. Thirty years have gone by since the darkness descended and the
Black Harvest began, a time when a serial killer sheared a bloody
swath through the quiet Pennsylvania village. The evil that once
coursed through Pine Deep has been replaced by cheerful tourists
getting ready to enjoy the country's largest Halloween celebration
in what is now called "The Spookiest Town in America." It Just
Grows Stronger But then--a month before Halloween--it begins.
Unspeakably desecrated bodies. Inexplicable insanity. And an
ancient evil walking the streets, drawing in those who would fall
to their own demons and seeking to shred the very soul of this
rapidly fracturing community. Yes, the residents of Pine Deep have
drawn together and faced a killer before. But this time, evil has
many faces--and the lust and will to rule the earth. This struggle
will be epic. "Serves up scares like pancakes at a church
social."--Gregory Frost "Without a doubt this prolific author is
the next Stephen King. Maberry deserves more then a Bram Stoker
Award for this; he deserves Bram Stoker to rise from his grave and
shake his hand." --Chad Wendell, "New World Reviews" "If I were
asked to select only one new voice in horror fiction to read today,
it would be Jonathan Maberry."--Katherine Ramsland "A fun, fun read
and creepy as hell."--Gregory Frost "If you think small town horror
has nothing new to offer, you have a surprise in store. "Ghost Road
Blues" demonstrates that even the most haunted town in America is
unprepared for the full depth of evil, either human or
inhuman."--Don D'Ammassa "Reminiscent of Stephen King. . .Maberry
supplies plenty of chills in this atmospheric novel. . .This is
horror on a grand scale." -"Publishers Weekly"
In the zombie-infested, post-apocalyptic America where Benny Imura
lives, every teenager must find a job by the time they turn fifteen
or get their rations cut in half. Benny doesn't want to apprentice
as a zombie hunter with his boring older brother Tom, but he has no
choice. He expects a tedious job whacking zoms for cash, but what
he gets is a vocation that will teach him what it means to be
human.

Villains have all the fun-everyone knows that-and this anthology
takes you on a wild ride through the dark side! The top villains
from seventeen urban fantasy series get their own stories-including
the baddies of New York Times bestselling authors Jim Butcher,
Kevin Hearne, Kelley Armstrong, Seanan McGuire, and Jonathan
Maberry. For every hero trying to save the world, there's a villain
trying to tear it all down. In this can't-miss anthology edited by
Joseph Nassise (The Templar Chronicles), you get to plot world
domination with the best of the evildoers we love to hate! This
outstanding collection brings you stories told from the villains'
point of view, imparting a fresh and unique take on the evil
masterminds, wicked witches, and infernal personalities that skulk
in the pages of today's most popular series. The full anthology
features stories by Jim Butcher (the Dresden Files), Kelley
Armstrong (Cainsville), Seanan McGuire (October Daye), Kevin Hearne
(The Iron Druid Chronicles), Jonathan Maberry (Joe Ledger), Lilith
Saintcrow (Jill Kismet), Carrie Vaughn (Kitty Norville), Joseph
Nassise (Templar Chronicles), Domino Finn (Black Magic Outlaw),
Steven Savile (Glasstown), Caitlin Kittredge (Hellhound
Chronicles), Jeffrey Somers (The Ustari Cycle), Sam Witt (Pitchfork
County), Craig Schaefer (Daniel Faust), Jon F. Merz (Lawson
Vampire), Faith Hunter (Jane Yellowrock), and Diana Pharaoh Francis
(Horngate Witches).
When you have to kill the same terrorist twice in one week there's
either something wrong with your world or something wrong with your
skills... and there's nothing wrong with Joe Ledger's skills. And
that's both a good, and a bad thing. It's good because he's a
Baltimore detective that has just been secretly recruited by the
government to lead a new taskforce created to deal with the
problems that Homeland Security can't handle. This rapid response
group is called the Department of Military Sciences or the DMS for
short. It's bad because his first mission is to help stop a group
of terrorists from releasing a dreadful bio-weapon that can turn
ordinary people into zombies. The fate of the world hangs in the
balance....
