After escaping the death and destruction of Port Peleas, Jake and Sarah have found a place to lay low for a while. Their peace, though, doesn't last, as enemies and allies are still in hot pursuit of Alure, the sun-lady figurine they carry with them, an object thought to hold the power of restoring peace to the land of Anhedonika. The pair will soon struggle to know who they can trust as they encounter a new set of characters and are drawn deeper into a plot to bring an end to Anhedonika's cruel ruler, The Lord. And now that they have found each other, they must fight to remain together as forces beyond their control threaten to tear them apart once more.

From Elsewhere collects some of Tim Jeffreys' most recent short fiction, taken from a variety of sources (the anthologies Fear's Accomplice, Cosmic Horror, and Miseria's Chorale; and literary magazines such as The Horror Zine and Killing the Angel) aswell as much previously unpublished work. They range in tone from creepy horror, sci-fi tinged, to folk/fairy tales, and the just plain weird. Not all tales are dark - there's humour and pathos to be found in these stories too. The reader can expect these tales to linger in the mind once they have closed the book.

Dark Lane Anthology Volume 8 contains twenty-three strange stories written by such esteemed authors as C.M. Muller, Rebecca Lloyd, Marvin Brown, Bill Davidson, Mike O'Driscoll, Robert Pope, Michael W. Thomas, Charles Wilkinson, and a host of other talents. Within these pages the reader will encounter an unusual kind of vampire-ism, spooks, sinister puppets, men returned from the dead, and one hell of a gigantic baby.

From a schoolgirl who wreaks death and destruction on her bullies via a magical ceremony, a man-eating siren who picks the wrong kind of soul to suck, a worker at a factory where cheese is made by milking humanoid creatures, a mobster who finds enlightenment through the resurrection of an assassinated village mayor, and a man who must wrestle for the attentions of his beloved with a mythical creature, the stories in Dark Lane Anthology: Volume Six take the reader through a range of bizarre and disturbing scenarios. But these tales are not merely intended to scare or unsettle. The characters in these pages learn things about themselves through their surreal and otherworldly experiences: how to love, how to forgive, how to grieve, how to fight, and, of course, how to protect yourself when confronted with a satanic rhinoceros in the menswear section at Debenhams.

You Will Never Lose Me will take you on a journey to the inner recesses of your soul, where darkness seeks retribution: A man wandering a post-apocalyptic landscape is burdened by valuable memories of the sea. But why should something so enriching to the soul be a burden? A typical English village is overshadowed by an unwelcome presence. What is this village menace and why is Owen Lloyd the only one unaffected by it? An art gallery conservator has a morbid obsession with his paintings. But what image is forming in the painting he restores, and will it be noticed in time? A woman hesitates near a bridge. What prevents her from going under? And will she give in to it? You Will Never Lose Me gathers nineteen of Tim Jeffreys' fabulously nightmarish, darkly humorous, thought-provoking and occasionally moving stories which have appeared in many publications, including Nightscript, Weirdbook and Sanitarium Magazine.
