Damnation & Dames is a collection of paranormal noir stories investigating the supernatural shadows surrounding classic crime. Inside this book are sixteen hand-picked stories, all original, featuring good guys, gumshoes, femme fatales, bootleggers, and gangsters: all your favourite noir characters mixed up with ghosts, giant monsters, faerie, vampires, and werewolves.
Scheherazade's One Thousand and One Nights stories-fairy tales and fables, telling of the fantastic and mysterious, the comic and dramatic-have captured imaginations for a millennia. Dreaming of Djinn collects 18 new stories of lost cities, magical lamps, thieves, intrepid explorers, slaves, robotic felines, noble queens, sorcerers, outcast princes, harems, dancers, djinn, and assassins. Take a piece of sweet lokum, a glass of mint tea and dive into the djinni's bottle. There on the magic carpet you will be horrified, delighted, but ultimately entertained by what you find.
2010 was a great year for Australian fantasy and horror, with the World Science Fiction convention held in Melbourne serving as an impetus for many publishers, both large and small, to showcase the breadth and depth of Australian and New Zealand speculative fiction. Several hundred fantasy and horror stories by Antipodeans were published in 2010, contained in Australasian and international magazines, webzines, anthologies and collections. From this plethora of work, editors Liz Grzyb and Talie Helene have selected 33 tales of fantasy, dark fantasy, horror and paranormal romance for this volume. The editors also present an overview of the genre in Australia in 2010, including noting significant works, events, and the results of the major awards. Together with a recommended reading list this is both a book to be read and a valuable reference work. Published by a leading Australian independent publisher, this is first volume of an ambitious annual series that will document the state of health of the fantasy and horror genre throughout Australia and New Zealand.
