TWO NEW CEMETERY DANCE IN STOCK, KING & LEBBON!

LAST EXIT FOR THE LOST by Tim Lebbon (signed limited hardcover)

From multi award-winning and New York Times bestselling writer Tim Lebbon comes this huge collection of the very best of his short fiction.

His first short fiction collection As the Sun Goes Down, attracted rave reviews. Now, Last Exit for the Lost collects the best of Lebbon’s output from 2000 to the present day. Weighing in at over 560 pages and containing 150,000 words of fiction, it also features two brand new, never-before-published stories: the novelette The Evolutionary, and the novella Nothing Heavenly.

• In Kissing at Shadows, a man makes a yearly journey through an apocalyptic landscape to visit the memory of his wife…
• In The Stuff of the Stars, Leaking, a dead sea creature washed up on a remote beach proves to be more mysterious than it first appears…
• A man loses his son… and he will do anything to get him back In Perpetuity…
• In The Horror of the Many Faces, Watson witnesses his friend Sherlock Holmes committing horrendous crimes that the great man himself would have trouble solving…
• A boy meets a mysterious stranger who can heal dead animals in The Evolutionary… but is there some fearful design to their meeting…?
• And captured by angels or demons, a prisoner can find Nothing Heavenly in either…

Lebbon has been described as “…the most exciting voice in the horror genre since Poppy Z Brite and Bentley Little”, “…the most exciting new name in horror for years”, and “…one of the very few genuinely talented British writers of thought-provoking horror and dark fantasy”.

If you’re brave enough to step through this Last Exit, you’ll see why…

Finally, after a escaping the psychological abuse of an emotionally cold mother and a series of dead-end jobs she could start planning a future with her fiancé, Donald.

For God spared not the angels that sinned…

On May 21^st, 2007, seven graduate students in Religious Studies set out from the University of Colorado in search of God. Armed with only their faith and the scriptures, they rented a small cluster of cabins on the western slope of the Rocky Mountains.

None of them were ever heard from again.

…but cast them down to hell…

On October 29^th, 2009, a disarticulated femur is discovered in a mountain lion’s den. Forensic testing confirms that the bone belongs to one of the missing seven, triggering a massive search of the surrounding wilderness.

No other evidence is found.

…and delivered them into chains of darkness…

On November 13^th, the families of the missing students rent the same cabins and attempt to recreate the final days of their loved ones in hopes of divining their fate. Only this time, thanks to an unusual bacterium isolated from the femur, they know where to look.

Nothing can prepare them for the truth.

…to be reserved unto judgment.

This is their story. The story of what they found, what they lost…and what Remains.

TWO BEAUTIFUL NEP LETTEREDS JUST PUT UP!

We just added two BEAUTIFUL NEP lettered editions today. THE WICKED by James Newman, and THE EVERLASTING by Tim Lebbon. GRAB THEM QUICKLY, they won’t last!

THE EVERLASTING by Tim Lebbon (signed limited letter hardcover edition)

30 years ago…

Sixteen-year-old Scott sees his first ghost.

Where is the Chord of Souls? it demands, then abruptly flees, leaving the horror of that fateful day indelibly tattooed on his Scott’s young mind.

He will never forget that day. Because the ghost was his grandfather’s friend . . . and his grandfather had murdered his friend just ten days before.

Now…

Thirty years after his grandfather’s suicide, Scott is stunned to suddenly receive a letter from the old man which talks of an ancient book of apocalyptic power: The Chord of Souls.

The letter’s arrival quickly heralds a deluge of supernatural events that has Scott teetering on the precipice of sanity and salvation: his wife is kidnapped, ghosts besiege his home and his mind, and immortality dons the guise of a beautiful woman. . .

Scott embarks upon a perilous journey to save his wife, one fraught with horrific danger and soul-shattering temptation. After all, who would not be tempted by the promise of powers beyond understanding . . . knowledge beyond comprehension . . . and life everlasting?

Metal traycase. Each lettered copy will contain a Giclee print from Caniglia. Only the lettered edition will have these prints. No more will ever be made.

THE WICKED by James Newman (signed limited letter hardcover edition)

A fire consumes the Heller Home For Children in Morganville, North Carolina. Amidst rumors of devil worship, authorities remand the teenage arsonist to a sanitarium.

Unaware of the turmoil in their new hometown, the Littles – David, Kate, and seven year-old Becca – are moving from New York City to Morganville in hopes of repairing their own lives, which were recently shattered by an act of sexual violence.

Before long, David Little realizes that his family’s troubles are worse than he could have ever imagined: An ancient demon lives in Morganville, an unholy creature conjured into existence by the Heller Home tragedy.

Its name is Moloch. It is hungry for the souls of the townspeople.

But most of all, Moloch wants the children. It will not rest until it has them.

All of them.

Metal traycase. Each lettered copy will contain an original one of a kind remarque from Keith Minnion and an original manuscript page from the story signed by Newman.
