Sweeping across the Old West like a sudden outbreak of a disease, a
dark Evil settles upon the small town of Goshen, California. The
Elias Family, humble farmers in the Central Valley, find themselves
in the eye of the storm. Sam Elias, the wholesome, hard working son
of Henry and Martha, and brother to his adoring young sister
Marybelle, is the first to be affected by the demonic wave. To the
shock of his family and community, Sam embarks on a murderous
rampage, coldly slaughtering anyone unfortunate enough to cross his
path. Henry knows in his heart that his boy could never commit such
cruelty and begins a journey to find Sam with the hope of ridding
him of this savage spirit. What Henry discovers during his odyssey
is a larger gathering of monsters and hellish creatures for what is
seemingly a singular, conspiratorial purpose. Along the way, he
meets and joins forces with Hania, a Native American Spirit Warrior
who is also searching for the source of the onslaught of death and
destruction among her people. As Sam remains one step ahead of his
father, he is also being tracked by an unusual European man called
Julian, who has direct knowledge of dark forces and has a
mysterious past with Henry.
It’s a bright sunny day near the Santa Monica Pier. You’re
reading an excellent horror novel (the latest Sutter Cane!) and
enjoying some downtime. But suddenly… you’re compelled to stand
up. So is everyone else around you. And now you’re walking along
with them into the ocean. Stop! you want to scream. Body, please
— just stop! But your body refuses to listen. Not even when the
waves crash over your head, and the water fills your lungs… All
over Los Angeles, people are doing inexplicable things. Random
strangers come together to commit bizarre acts of violence and
self-destruction, from Santa Monica to the 101 to a posh Beverly
Hills mall. The city is in chaos, and no one seems to have any
answers. Except… Well, except for a crackpot professor on You
Tube, a grieving mother hellbent on revenge, a depressed doctor
adrift on the freeways, a homeless vet with a pistol, and a naked
man with amnesia. Somehow, these random strangers are the only
thing standing between us and the complete breakdown of society.
And in this war, every casualty is a civilian…

Time: A future where ships can fold space and much of humanity has
abandoned its depleted world. Two forces-- Government and
Corporation- vie for control of what's left of the Earth, of known
space, and of the universe beyond. Hyperbreed tm: Gene-spliced
human-animal hybrid assets with no legal status, living, breathing
slaves created and programmed to do their Corporate masters
bidding. Government, in trying to limit Corporate power, has
recently insisted "splices" be paid wages and has begun to debate a
bill that would allow the Hyperbreed assets to buy their freedom.
Corporate will do anything to stop it. Maks: A race of alien robot
pirates that exists on the edge of explored space--terrifying
monsters who wear the body parts of vanquished flesh-and-blood
enemies as trophies. An attack on Earth is next on their agenda.
Caught in the middle: Byrr, Fext and Cammo, three Hyperbreed assets
who've run afoul of their Corporate masters. Thrown together on an
ancient freighter, their mission is to transport valuable Explosive
Ore to a distant mining colony. But their mission is far from what
it seems and the battle for their futures and the future of Known
Space is about to begin. In the vastness of space, small betrayals
can have major consequences, playing the odds can change the course
of history, and Luck isn't always what it seems.
The crew of a cargo ship that transports the dead for burial on a
designated Graveyard Moon find themselves overwhelmed by
unspeakable horror… surrounded by the ghosts of the dead they
carry. In the not so far future, Earth no longer has space
for graveyards. Callisto, a rocky moon of Jupiter, has become
designated as the graveyard planet, but only the wealthy can afford
a proper burial there. Cooper and his longtime crew prepare to
transport a load of the dead, having flown this route many times
over. But their routine trip to the graveyard moon is disrupted by
deception and greed… and they find themselves under siege by the
ghosts of the dead they carry.

Carbon Transfer Printing is a book about one of the earliest
photographic processes that provided the first permanent printing
methods, available in one form or another for over 150 years. This
book reviews the extensive history of carbon transfer and related
pigment processes in both monochrome and color, to serve as point
source for a new carbon printer to begin to master the craft of
carbon printing, as well as provide new material for experienced
carbon printers so they can expand their techniques. The book
includes never-before-published information on pre-sensitizing
carbon tissue with newly identified compounds, information on the
safe use and disposal of hexavalent chromium compounds, and
simplified methods of producing 3-color carbon prints. Carbon
Transfer Printing is divided into two parts, illustrated with 175
photographs. Part One is a complete how-to on the carbon transfer
process, from simple to complex, with a troubleshooting guide and
an extensive chapter on digital negatives. Part Two is devoted to
contemporary carbon printers who share their methods and secrets to
creating their beautiful carbon prints. Topics that the book covers
are: Key events in carbon's history How to organize the carbon
workplace Sections on necessary supplies and equipment A
step-by-step digital method of making high quality digital
negatives Simple and advanced methods of carbon printing How to
make carbon tissue, including several methods of pre-sensitizing
How to choose UV light sources for printing in carbon Step-by-step

As the Cold War widened in the 1950s, military hero George Kutter
and his family trained to be legacy survivors in the event of an
atomic exchange with the Soviet Union. Prepared to wait out the
aftermath of nuclear war, they were subjected to myriad
simulations, scenarios and stresses in hopes of helping salvage
something of their family, their country and humanity from the
ashes of a conflict with the Russians that never happened. But when
a group of hunting buddies stumble upon an old fallout shelter
buried in the present-day Pennsylvania wilderness and end up locked
inside, they quickly learn that "truth" is just a matter of
conditioning, while a crash course in paranoia, propaganda and
control awaits. What was the nature of the secret Archonite
initiative? What lengths did the United States go to in order to
prepare for all-out war and its aftermath? What did the Kutter
Family endure in perpetration for their duty? And if World War III
never broke out... why are they still down there?

changes their lives forever. Monica and her father search for

In this sci-fi horror, an experiment in faster than light travel
goes terribly wrong. Unintended side effects will drop pilot David
Peeler into a living nightmare when alternate versions of himself
start appearing, each one more deranged than the last. Putting both
himself, and his family in danger, David will navigate the farthest
reaches of the cosmos, and the abyss of the human mind. Little by
little, he will lose himself to the growing insanity of confronting
the darkest parts of himself made flesh. All of it culminating in
an explosive ending that will almost certainly be Peeler's doom!
At Tattersall Prison, a max-lock for the baddest of the bad,
sleepless nights are the norm… until a fireball from the sky
turns the night shift into a nightmare — trapping guards
and cons on the inside, cops on the outside, and escapees
in-between… all of them threatened by a hideous alien invader
which needs nice, warm human bodies in which to incubate. From the
outside, it looks like a replay of Waco, but from the inside,
it’s more like Dante’s first draft of the Inferno. Psychotic
Fraiser Bonner leads an army of convicts with a grudge against lead
guard Wayne Jessup, whose crew is marooned inside with no means of
exit. Black ops spook Elaine Farris tries to call the shots as
captive guards get executed by Bonner. Farris dreads the moment she
will have to call in her “expert,” Conrad Gant, whose life she
destroyed six years earlier. Why? Because Gant knows about the
alien interlopers, who use the human form as a chrysalis and shed
the envelope of flesh to produce Earth-compatible conquerors… and
Gant was hounded into silence by Elaine and her fixers. Now the
clock is ticking and there’s an invasion to be stopped, as minute
by minute, guards perish and alien numbers grow stronger, with the
aim of spilling out of the prison cordon and into the rest of the
world. It’s a hostage situation. It’s a battle between species.
It’s Earth's most serious Standoff. The Standoff is the third
entry in John Carpenter’s Tales of Science Fiction, created
especially for Storm King’s John Carpenter and Sandy King by
David J. Schow. All five issues are collected here to offer a
chapter play that’s half suspense thriller, and half science
fiction fever dream. Whose side would you take? It’s time to lock
and load for The Standoff… and watch out for those nasty, flying
alien bugs every step of the way.
Marnie Young, an executive assistant in San Diego, is a sweet girl
who wouldn’t hurt a fly. She’s also super lonely. But one
night, without warning, Marnie has a violent seizure; co-workers
recoil in horror as she writhes on the floor. Two days later,
Marnie wakes up in a hospital room. As her vision comes into focus,
she sees 17 doctors and nurses dead on the floor, blood splattered
everywhere. Soon she discovers the shocking truth: Marnie has
become lethal, and everyone who comes within three feet of her dies
instantly! Which is really going to mess up her dating life (if she
had one). Is there a cure? Will anyone ever get close enough to
find out?
Horror meister John Carpenter directs this remake of the 1960
sci-fi classic. When an unseen force invades the village of
Midwich, ten women are found to be mysteriously pregnant. All the
babies, who are born simultaneously, have white hair, glowing eyes,
strange psychic powers, and an unsettling desire to dominate anyone
who crosses their path. Local doctor Alan Chaffee (Christopher
Reeve) and government scientist Susan Verner (Kirstie Alley) set
out to investigate.
