PORTRAIT OF THE PSYCHOPATH AS A YOUNG WOMAN by Edward Lee & Elizabeth Steffen

She is utterly beautiful,
and utterly insane.

A novel from Edward Lee & Elizabeth Steffen.
A full-force, hardcore psycho thriller.
Unlike anything you’ve seen from Ed Lee before.

P s y c h o p a t h
She shackles them to the bed.
She glues their eyes closed.
She punctures their eardrums.
She sews their lips shut.

T o r t u r e s s
They can’t move. They can’t see or hear.
They can’t scream.
All they can do is feel.
And with her tools — her scalpels and needles,
her bonesaws and her knives –
She gives them a lot to feel…

“The novel that American Psycho should have been… brutal, break-neck, and very real. An astonishing, gruesome feminist thriller…”

- Andrew Harper, author of Bad Karma

TALES OF THE FALLEN: Book 1 by David G. Barnett

David G Barnett offers up the beginning of what will hopefully be a long series of novellas and shorts centered around the battle for heaven. These first three tales are fast-paced, funny, raunchy and poignant. Barnett’s world comes to life with horribly flawed characters that you will like or hate, but won’t forget, abominable creatures and visions of Heaven and Hell that will begin to pave the way for more tales to come.

They rescued him from the streets and with their help he has become the world’s greatest assassin. So much death, so much blood, but it all ends after this one final job. Just one more death and Mal will finally get what was promised him so many, many years ago.

Jonas White is a powerful man, an empire builder. He commands adoration and respect from everyone who meets him. He is a good man, does good things. But now he’s also a marked man. He knows destiny is banging on the door. What will happen when he opens it?

Two men fated to meet each other on one cataclysmic evening. An evening when secrets will be revealed, loyalties will be tested, old grudges settled and new ones made. This is just one stop along a long road. A road that leads back to where it all began so very long ago.

He wanted revenge for an atrocity committed so many years ago. Back when his world collapsed around him with a single knock on his door.

But that was then and this is now and revenge is at hand. Years of planning, years of blasphemous dealings and terrible actions have led to this moment. He has worked for decades to be able to summon the demon of revenge and now he’s ready. Tonight he will demand the demon grant his one wish and all this will finally be over.

But Travis Burnsfield will soon find out that the demon of revenge has other plans for the evening. Plans that involve Starbucks, cheese steaks and a trip to the infamous Painfreak where many creatures go, all with very different hungers. Some with hungers that can be sated by the sorrow of a tired old man who only wants revenge for something taken from him so very long ago.

The old man hadn’t been here in… Well, he couldn’t really remember. But what he did know was that it had changed. Changed so much. His heart was heavy at seeing the destruction and knowing what it all meant. But he didn’t have time to mourn. No, he had to move on.

He had placed them here so long ago, but over time he grew careless and forgot to keep track of them. But the time has come for him to track them all down. Things had changed and now he needed their help. It was time to seek out the others and awaken them…awaken his army. He only hoped they wanted to be awakened and wanted to help him. It would take some time. But after all, time was all he had right now.

OPERATOR B by Edward Lee

Science fiction, Lee-style. This critically acclaimed novella involves a U.S. Air Force test pilot recruited for a very special mission: to fly an operational recovered UFO. Any test pilot’s dream, right? Wrong. Special disfiguring surgery is required for anyone human who wants to fly the craft. This expertly plotted novella proves to detractors that Lee can write in many arenas, not just horror, and doesn’t have to rely on the “gross-out” to keep readers enthralled. (Lee has implied that he may one day expand this project to novel-length, just as he hopes to expand his hard sci-fi TRIAGE novella 2202.) “OPERATOR “B” made the Preliminary Ballot for 1999 HWA Stoker Award for Best Novella. Little known fact: the working outline for this novella was a screenplay, which is also the case for his well-reviewed conspiracy/UFO novel THE STICKMEN.

SOMETHING SLITHERING…

The smoking sizzle rose as Leona hosed down the burning wall. Jesus! she thought. I got it!

But…

She looked around. Where was Howie?

“I found the hose!” he bellowed, running back around the corner. He held the long length in one hand. “Turn it o—” But then he stopped, scanned his eyes at the smoking ashes.

“Howie,” Leona said with the sickest feeling in her life churning in her belly. “That thing in your hand isn’t the hose…”

It hung limp until the moment she’d said that, almost as if it had sensed the trigger of Howie’s fear. His eyes snapped down…

Then the “hose” began to move…

Vaguely pink, glistening skin. About an inch thick. How long was it? It extended from his hand, behind him, its other end still on the other side of the shack. Howie tried to drop the grotesque thing but it was already too late for that. In the space of that synaptic second, the creature energized and wrapped around Howie’s upper torso—

Then Howie was dressed in the thing, wearing it like a corselet. His scream was severed when more of its length coiled about his neck. Howie fell over.

His eyes still registered images as his vision clouded, and then the thing’s head made itself plain: slightly tapered, less like a snake and more like a worm.

A pink hole dilated—a mouth opening?—then a thinner pink tube of something fleshy slipped out and—

“Howie!” Leona screamed.

—slithered down Howie’s throat.

WRATH JAMES WHITE YACCUB’S CURSE HARDCOVER IN STOCK & SHIPPING!

YACCUB’S CURSE by Wrath James White (limited edition hardcover)

Malik is an enforcer for the most notorious drug dealer in G-town. But when he is ordered to kill a local crack whore and her newborn child he has a revalation that leads him into a desperate battle with a man who might be Satan himself. Caught in a struggle between good and evil, sanity and madness, redemption and damnation, the violence of the streets and the power of the occult, Malik must risk his life to save a newborn crack baby that he believes to be Jesus Christ. But is Malik a force good or were he and his employer both created millenniums ago by an evil geneticist for the same purpose, to ensure strife between the races.

“Deeply disturbing in a way that only the most honest stories are, YACCUB is a fiercely written, daring journey through America’s urban wilderness and into the souls of our forgotten brothers. But Wrath James White hasn’t forgotten about them–and after reading this book, neither will you.” –Brandon Massey, author of THE OTHER BROTHER

“Wrath James White is the premiere author of hard-core horror. Period.” –Edward Lee author of GOLEMESQUE, CITY INFERNAL and INFERNAL ANGEL “If Wrath doesn’t make you cringe, then you must be riding in the wrong end of a hearse.” –Jack Ketchum, author of THE GIRL NEXT DOOR, RED, and OFF SEASON

“Wrath is a warrior. He comes at you on the written page with the intent to overpower you, yet he rarely overwhelms. This carnage has purpose. There’s lit tle over-indulgence. His over-the-top cathartic bloodbaths are seldom pointless. Put bluntly, he isn’t just going for the gross-out. Wrath is a philosopher, and he loves to flaunt his technique and sense of limitless ethics in each of his tales. He has wit and intelligence and utter ruthlessness…” –CEMETERY DANCE review

“Without apologies, White tears through your emotions from sympathy to hate, humor to shock, blending everyday language and poetic imagery as his words wrap around your mind and cause you to pause and appreciate them…” –HorrorWeb
