Book Description
NYPD homicide detective Trina Baskin is having nightmares. Vivid ones. Full of blood, and snow, dead wolves...and a young man with pale hair who howls like an animal. She chalks them up to stress and an overactive imagination, too many Old Country stories from her Russian father who, when he's had too much vodka, starts to rave about dark forces and things that look like men...but aren't. But then a case hits her desk that can't be explained. A young man found outside a club with a nasty bite mark on his neck - and not a drop of blood left in his body. With no leads, no theories that bear exploring, too little sleep, and a partner who seems to be willfully throwing his career down the toilet, the last thing Trina needs is a full-on out of body experience...in which her family's past is revealed to her, and everything starts making a whole lot of terrifying sense. In 1942, Trina's great-grandfather, Nikita, is a captain of the Cheka, the Soviet political police - or so it seems. He and his men are sent to Siberia to retrieve a "volunteer," the boy who's going to win the war against the Nazis - and potentially unleash hell on earth. The world's immortal population has been living quietly, secretly, hiding from the wars of men, hoping the past can stay buried. But what happens on the Eastern Front in the winter of 1942 will change everything. In 2017, Trina is about to come face-to-face with her own past in a way she never thought possible. It turns out monsters are real - and they might be the only hope for survival.

Book Description
Frederick Marryat was one of the pioneers of the sea novel, and a major influence on writers such as Joseph Conrad and Ernest Hemingway. In his day, his short fiction was wildly popular, and 'The White Wolf of the Hartz Mountains' remains widely anthologised. Many of the horror stories of monsters and ghouls, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

Book Description
Beautifully written and unexpectedly moving, John Darnielle's audacious and gripping debut novel Wolf in White Van is a marvel of storytelling and genuine literary delicacy. Welcome to Trace Italian, a game of strategy and survival! You may now make your first move. Isolated by a disfiguring injury since the age of seventeen, Sean Phillips crafts imaginary worlds for strangers to play in. From his small apartment in southern California, he orchestrates fantastic adventures where possibilities, both dark and bright, open in the boundaries between the real and the imagined. His primary creation, Trace Italian, is an intricate text-role playing game that enables participants far and wide to explore a dystopian America, seeking refuge amidst the ruin. However, when two high school players, Lance and Carrie, extend the game into their reality, the consequences are horrifying, leaving Sean to account for it. Darnielle’s Wolf in White Van invites us to comprehend the depth and intricacy of Sean's life. Told in reverse, the story draws us back to the moment that fundamentally altered Sean’s life as he knows it.
