The Necromancer's Bride
Author: Kat Ross

ISBN: 0999762133
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Forgiveness is not Gabriel D’Ange’s strong suit. A self-appointed soldier of God with a penchant for ruthlessly punishing his enemies, he vanished after Anne Lawrence stabbed him with his own dagger. The smart thing would be to let him go. Unfortunately, Anne’s life isn’t just lonely without Gabriel. It’s insufferably boring. Determined to heal the rift between them, Anne goes in search of her tempestuous former lover, black parasol in hand and daeva magic crackling at her fingertips. But Gabriel has his own plans afoot and she finds herself drawn into one of his tangled webs, much against her better judgment. Gabriel’s nemesis has reappeared in Brussels, a vile slaver who’s plundering the Congo Free State with the blessing of King Leopold. Gabriel might be willing to give Anne a second chance, but not until Jorin Bekker’s head is lying at his feet. Back in London, the quasi-reformed necromancer Balthazar sets his sights on the same quarry. He holds a very personal grudge against Bekker — and killing him might be the only way to keep Gabriel D’Ange from Balthazar’s own throat. When the hunters collide at a lavish gala thrown by the king, Anne’s darkest secret comes to light and she learns just how far she’ll go to save the man she loves. Praise for The Necromancer’s Bride “Super satisfying … A gothic fantasy packed with supernatural beings, secrets, action and romance.” -Discover Elysian “Fast and addictive reading… Kat Ross fills her novels with layered and tangible characters.” -The Rest Is Still Unwritten “If you’re looking for urban fantasy with unique lore, check out this series!” -Trials and Tribulations of Writing Fiction “Amazing twists and surprises around every corner. I love this dark take on the Victorian setting.” -Haddie’s Haven "Gaslamp Gothic is a masterclass in genre-blending, combining horror, mystery, crime, comedy, fantasy, history and romance in a wonderfully addictive read." –I Smell Sheep book blog “Five huge cups of coffee from me. I think I’ll just go read this again now.” –The Caffeinated Reader “The characters are so appealing, the story twisting and turning, the scenery vivid – it’s just an all-around win.” –Cats Love Coffee “Sucked me right on in and kept me entertained the entire time.” –Jazzy Book Reviews

Book Description
With the defeat of the evil Douglas behind him, Sam LaCroix is getting used to his new life. Okay, so he hadn't exactly planned on being a powerful necromancer with a seat on the local magical council and a capricious werewolf sort-of-girlfriend, but things are going fine, right? Well . . . not really. He's pretty tired of getting beat up by everyone and their mother, for one thing, and he can't help but feel that his new house hates him. His best friend is a werebear, someone is threatening his sister, and while Sam realizes that he himself has a lot of power at his fingertips, he's not exactly sure how to use it. Which, he has to admit, is a bit disconcerting. But when everything starts falling apart, he decides it's time to step up and take control. His attempts to do so just bring up more questions, though, the most important of which is more than a little alarming: Is Douglas really dead?

Gothic Writers
Author: Douglass H. Thomson
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0313006911
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 543
Book Description
With its roots in Romanticism, antiquarianism, and the primacy of the imagination, the Gothic genre originated in the 18th century, flourished in the 19th, and continues to thrive today. This reference is designed to accommodate the critical and bibliographical needs of a broad spectrum of users, from scholars seeking critical assistance to general readers wanting an introduction to the Gothic, its abundant criticism, and the present state of Gothic Studies. The volume includes alphabetically arranged entries on more than 50 Gothic writers from Horace Walpole to Stephen King. Entries for Russian, Japanese, French, and German writers give an international scope to the book, while the focus on English and American literature shows the dynamic nature of Gothicism today. Each of the entries is devoted to a particular author or group of authors whose works exhibit Gothic elements, beginning with a primary bibliography of works by the writer, including modern editions. This section is followed by a critical essay, which examines the author's use of Gothic themes, the author's place in the Gothic tradition, and the critical reception of the author's works. The entries close with selected, annotated bibliographies of scholarly studies. The volume concludes with a timeline and a bibliography of the most important broad scholarly works on the Gothic.
