Book Description
The Captain hates his bloody job hates whaling. Yet, to catch enough fish to retire, he puts his faith in an all-conquering He-God, consequently at the cost of his heart: in what would seem a case of cosmic vengeance against him, his beloved young daughter is stolen by the sea, from which he has stolen so much life. The Captain's mystical journey to reconnect with his daughter (and the earth) begins when his crew of walrus hunters leaves him for dead on a remote Alaskan island. Here, the god most high is a she, and the release of tears is said to unlock immortal strength. But can the Captain, a faithless man, reap the benefits of such beliefs, and save the island its women, its walrus from his crew? Set during a time of war and oil (the Civil War and whale oil), The Walrus-Man travels to a strange land of Eskimo egg-men and tattoo-tusked women, where ambiguity thrives and absolutes have no place. Far (but not too far) from the modern world, one may find that wars and global warming come from something more fundamental than oil: an imbalance between the Male and Female forces of the soul.

The Analyst
Author: Brandon Rolfe
Publisher: M-Y Books Limited
ISBN: 1909204129
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 403
Book Description
Set in Victorian London, The Analyst follows a trail of intrigue in a realistic period setting reflecting a 'modern' scientific society that still drags a dark underside of squalid desolation. It tells of a grim struggle -- a tragedy -- of a man's sanity slipping away, gradually deteriorating to the point of him eventually going over the edge with horrendous consequences. His brain screamed. The room rapidly becoming claustrophobic, with the walls crushing in on his mind. If he remained here it would suffocate him, annihilate him. Destruction now reared up in his mind, a heaving black monster held back on naught but feeble leash. The novel is directed at the psychological conscience-probing mystery section of the fiction market, the main character's mental conflict, with its hauntingly mind-searching flashbacks, putting it into the Freudian/Hyde bracket

Book Description
Once there was only a whisper – the legend of a being caught between life and death, a master of shadows who bore the secrets of forgotten magic. This legend was forgotten... until today. Reborn in iron armor and with a sword as cold as the grave, a new power has arisen, bound to a destiny as twisted as the dark magic that flows through his veins. But the world is no longer the same. Old empires have crumbled, gods have fallen silent, and humanity clings to survival under the shadow of cruel beasts and tyrants. In a realm full of ancient terrors, a lone warrior rises – a fragile spark in an endless storm, armed with cursed magic and an unbending will. Now a path of rebellion is forged through this unforgiving world. With every step, secrets come to light that would have been better left buried, and powers emerge that can hardly be restrained. Forged anew in the fire of revenge, unstoppable and implacable, this new champion marches toward an uncertain destiny. This world has not yet known true darkness – but that will soon change. Welcome to the edge of the unknown.
