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
processing directions How to prepare final support papers
Troubleshooting carbon Multi-layer printing to add tone, or make a
full color carbon print Finishing and final presentation of carbon
prints A gallery of images and advice from contemporary carbon
printers Carbon Transfer Printing is designed for both the
beginning carbon enthusiast as well as for the advanced
practitioner. Backed with extensive research on carbon printing
from books, journals, and magazine articles from the 1800s to
present day, and the extensive personal experience in carbon
printing of the authors, there is enough information in this book
to provide inspiration and proof of both the glorious past of
carbon printmaking and its enduring importance to a new generation
of image makers who value the handmade print.

Danni is twelve years old and struggling to get over the loss of
her dog, Pirate, when a new teacher and an old school book reveal
to her the world of Greek mythology. Danni stumbles across an
illustration that looks familiar enough for her to leave the house
in the dead of night and seek out what she thinks could be the gate
to Hades, the Greek Underworld, and perhaps a way to bring her dog
back to the land of the living. What she didn’t expect was her
younger brother, Sammy, to tag along or that once in the Underworld
she’d need a guide… and two 21st century kids on a quest to
save their dead dog was the last thing Odysseus was expecting.
Adventuring in the Underworld since the fall of Troy he’s the
last of his kind - a true Hero - but with enemies leaping on them
at every turn and monsters and gods to overcome this may be his
toughest odyssey yet!
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!

and buries his body in their house at 17 Barrow Street. Two
centuries later, Jessica is reborn in Greenwich Village, only this
time her name is Rebecca, and it's "her" turn to fool around. She
has an affair with neurosurgeon John Grover. Following the brutal
murder of John's wife, Rebecca marries him. That's when things
start to go bump in the night at 17 Barrow Street. While Dr.
Grover's first wife and Rebecca's previous husband may be

"Apocalypse: Shadow Asylum" features a disturbing and provocative
series of events laced with deceit, treachery, revenge, and the
supernatural. "Fear The Dead" gives this book 10 slashes out of 10.
"The most entertaining book I have read in years." "The Black Star
News"-NYC: "Each page leaves you hungry for what's next."
Dana, a young woman who used to help the police find dead bodies,
is driven off a jogging path by a vision of a demonic scarecrow and
caught in raging floodwaters. Lightning rips a tree out of a pond
and tears a hole in the earth, and Dana is swept down into a
massive cavern. When the firefighters pull her out, she tells them
astounding news. There’s a house down there. A big one: the House
of Usher, described as fiction by Edgar Allan Poe. The house is
enormous, ripped into two separate wings (“like the Titanic”)
and covered over by a freak layer of ash and lava. And it’s
structurally sound, explorable. “It's the 19th century down
there.” As the only person who has been down and come out alive,
Dana is recruited by government agent Bernice to join an expedition
down into the insane wreck of a mansion. The house, like the
Titanic, lies in two great pieces, one dry and one flooded. But
soon the explorers learn that the house is haunted not just by
ghosts, but by time itself, and sometimes the shape of the house
alters with sudden violence. And the most dangerous spirit in the
House of Usher is intent on using the expeditioners to unlock a
powerful secret. Fans of LOCKE AND KEY and HOUSE OF MYSTERY can’t
miss this brand-new haunted exploration.
The locals call it 'the Coffin Road', a lonely highway winding
through the backwoods of Maine, said to be the haunt of all who
have died there. Not the best place for your car to break down!
ALEX is the dazed survivor of an auto-wreck, assisted by OWEN, a
young African-American recovery driver with his own reasons to fear
these eerie backroads. But with a storm closing in, floodwaters
have blocked the road back to town, forcing Alex and Owen to take
the long, treacherous route back through the Coffin Road. They are
pursued by a malevolent specter with a crooked neck. Who is he? And
why does he want to own Alex body and soul? What other secrets lay
hidden in these woods? Alex and Owen must journey through this
shadow world and unravel its many mysteries before the Coffin Road
buries them forever!
Humanity has moved on after the Benson Disaster. In the decades
following the loss of the space station along with almost its
entire crew a new kind of life has been forged out even further
into the Veil Nebula aboard a new type of habitat: The Barringer.
But a connection back to Jake Dixon, the man who sacrificed
everything to stop a nameless horror reaching Earth, now pulls back
those few survivors and an all-new crew to face fresh monsters and
familiar terror. From Earth to the cold vacuum of space light years
away, from the fragile artificial environment of space stations to
the frozen terror of a dead planet... brace yourself. Mankind
believes it has tamed the organism freed from the dark years ago.
Survivors believe they have seen the last of that horror and those
that died stopping it. What they don't know is that they're in John
Carpenter's universe and all bets are off. The tendrils are back!
The heroics are bigger! The monsters are nastier! And the ride is
far from over as the VORTEX reopens.
