Sleep Over
Author: H. G. Bells
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 194045672X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
For fans of the oral history genre phenomenon World War Z, an inventive new spin on the apocalypse featuring a worldwide plague of insomnia. Remember what it’s like to go an entire night without sleep? What if sleep didn’t come the following night? Or the night after? What might happen if you, your friends, your family, your coworkers, and the strangers you pass on the street, all slowly began to realize that rest might not ever come again? How slowly might the world fall apart? How long would it take for a society without sleep to descend into chaos? Sleep Over is a collection of waking nightmares, a scrapbook collection of haunting and poignant stories from those trapped in a world where the pillars of society are crumbling, and madness is slowly descending on a planet without rest. Online vigilantism transforms social media into a blame game with deadly consequences. A freelance journalist grapples with the ethics of turning in footage of mass suicide. Scientists turn to horrifying experiments as they grow more desperate in their race for a cure. In Sleep Over, these stories are just the beginning. Before the Longest Day, the world record was eleven days without sleep. It turns out many of us will be forced to go much longer. Skyhorse Publishing, under our Night Shade and Talos imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of titles for readers interested in science fiction (space opera, time travel, hard SF, alien invasion, near-future dystopia), fantasy (grimdark, sword and sorcery, contemporary urban fantasy, steampunk, alternative history), and horror (zombies, vampires, and the occult and supernatural), and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller, a national bestseller, or a Hugo or Nebula award-winner, we are committed to publishing quality books from a diverse group of authors.

Book Description
This is book 3 and the finale of the Satan’s Cubs MC romance series! Will he save my life, or just drag me back down to the muck? Hi, my name is Melanie, and I’m an alcoholic. I can’t remember a single night in the last six months I wasn’t drunk. It’s the only way to get through my miserable life. But it’s slowly killing me. It’s time for one last ditch effort to change things before it’s too late. One more shot at redemption. As it turns out, redemption is six feet tall and rides a Harley. Jax Patton is a tattooed devil with demons of his own. He’s trying to break the vicious cycle of his addiction, just like me. We find hope in each other. In his arms, with his kiss, I feel like maybe we can make it out of here alive and intact. But the world has other plans. And Jax’s line of work might end up being the final nail in our coffins. He’s a drug runner for a Colombian cartel, and they won’t be content with his half-hearted commitment. So he’s got two choices: Go all-in on their offer of drugs and violence… Or say goodbye to ever seeing me again. I finally discovered happiness in the shape of a rough, savage biker with a heart of gold. But will he give up everything for me?

Return to Muck
Author: Marg Greenwood
Publisher: Troubador Publishing Ltd
ISBN: 1803132191
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
Return to Muck tells of Marg’s experiences as a solo, older woman traveller in some lesser-known Scottish islands in the Inner and Outer Hebrides. On a budget, she mostly stays in hostels and bunkhouses, travels by car within the islands (except Muck) but takes no carbon-emitting flights. She walks, wanders and wonders, talks to islanders (age range from 5 to 97); comes across, usually by chance, stunning geographical features, exciting wildlife, ancient stones, folktales and other finds, many of which lead her to research and more discovery. Unusual subject matters include finding the connection between goose barnacles and barnacle geese; learning about Gaelic song; and stumbling across a lighthouse optic in a stately home garden. Two of these ‘finds’ become sources for poems. From this, an increased creativity emerges, some of which is a natural progression from her poems: that of composing songs and teaching them at other island schools as well as the Muck school. She bases the lyrics of these songs on a folktale pertaining to the particular island, thus allowing the pupils to express themselves musically and learn about their local folklore at the same time. She describes her own experiences of teaching the songs. This book offers a perspective only a lone woman traveller can give. It can serve both as a memento to those who know the islands well, and provide an introduction for anyone who has yet to discover them, especially those who yearn to travel alone.
