Book Description
World War II veteran Edward Bond's recuperation from a disastrous fighter plane crash takes a distinct turn for the weird when he encounters a giant wolf, a red witch, and the undeniable power of the need-fire, a portal to a world of magic and swordplay at once terribly new and hauntingly familiar. In the Dark World, Bond opposes the machinations of the dread lord Ganelon and his terrible retinue of werewolves, wizards, and witches, but all is not as it seems in this shadowy mirror of the real world, and Bond discovers that a part of him feels more at home here than he ever has on Earth.

Book Description
The Grey are the legends of our imagination—but now, through one man, they seek to live. From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Richard Knaak comes a tale of the Grey. They are the shadows we see out of the corner of our eyes, the visions flickering past in the middle of the night. They are the elves, the fairies, and the other legends of our minds. They are the Grey. They are all around us, and they are a part of us, forever tied to our innermost thoughts. They seek to be truly real, to truly live, and for that they need a human anchor, a false king–one who can give them substance. In Chicago, unsuspecting Jeremiah Todtmann has been chosen for that role. But even as he tries to come to grips with the existence of the Grey themselves, he will soon discover that while some represent the harmless dreams of men—there are others that are men’s most deadly nightmares.

Book Description
A National Book Award Finalist, a New York Times bestseller and one of the most highly-acclaimed books of the year, A Hologram for the King is a sprawling novel about the decline of American industry from one of the most important, socially-aware novelists of our time. In a rising Saudi Arabian city, far from weary, recession-scarred America, a struggling businessman named Alan Clay pursues a last-ditch attempt to stave off foreclosure, pay his daughter's college tuition, and finally do something great. In A Hologram for the King, Dave Eggers takes us around the world to show how one man fights to hold himself and his splintering family together in the face of the global economy's gale-force winds. This taut, richly layered, and elegiac novel is a powerful evocation of our contemporary moment--and a moving story of how we got here.

Book Description
In the middle of the night, in a house on a quiet street in suburban Minneapolis, intruders silently murder Luke Ellis' parents and load him into a black SUV. The operation takes less than two minutes. Luke will wake up at The Institute, in a room that looks just like his own, except there's no window. And outside his door are other doors, behind which are other kids with special talents--telekinesis and telepathy--who got to this place the same way Luke did: Kalisha, Nick, George, Iris, and 10-year-old Avery Dixon. They are all in Front Half. Others, Luke learns, graduated to Back Half, "like the roach motel," Kalisha says. "You check in, but you don't check out." In this most sinister of institutions, the director, Mrs. Sigsby, and her staff are ruthlessly dedicated to extracting from these children the force of their extranormal gifts. There are no scruples here. If you go along, you get tokens for the vending machines. If you don't, punishment is brutal. As each new victim disappears to Back Half, Luke becomes more and more desperate to get out and get help. But no one has ever escaped from The Institute.

Book Description
BEWARE OF SPOILERS AHEAD! This novella is designed to be read after FALL SILVER ARTEMIS and before IN THE SHADOW OF THE SUNDERED KING! The end of THE OLD WORLD SAGA begins beneath STRANGE LIGHTS in an alien sky... From Australian author Joel Preston comes a cosmic adventure that takes his series into realms beyond the universe... THE OLD WORLD SAGA embraces the Cthulhu mythos in this tale about the things beyond both gods and angels that linger in the dark. It first happened in THE WENDIGO INCIDENT, when US NAVY SEAL Patrick Leeson (aka Neanderthal) read from a mysterious black book to distract the monstrous wendigo and save the life of Joshua Dare. What he summoned that day was just a glimpse of the horrors that lie waiting beyond the known universe. The room shook as eyes and tentacles appeared, before vanishing almost as quickly. Then, in FALL SILVER ARTEMIS, professor Malcolm Selleck used a similar black book to summon an Eldritch abomination in the games of Skrymir. It was that same book that a civilian, Randall Dare, had been studying before his disappearance... Right at the end of that story, Randall Dare reappeared unexpectedly in the destruction of Sydney Harbour, before the demonic Cthulhu. And he had some friends with him. STRANGE LIGHTS IN THE DARK WORLD is the story of how Randall got there. Now, in this novella, we follow Randall Dare as he opens a wormhole to a planet called the Dark World. Thrust into this story of magic and supernatural terrors by sheer blood association, Randall becomes stuck outside the universe, looking for a way back in. An alien army is waking up, and it looks like they have their sights set on Planet Earth. Luckily, with Randall is another lost soul, Patrick Leeson. Together, they will encounter one of humanities most revered religious figures, also stranded in the Dark World. With Jesus of Nazareth on their side, and a particularly fearsome T-Rex, the stage is set for the coming war against the Star Spawn and their Great Old One leader. - THE BLURB - Randall Dare put his mathematical skills to the test by solving a complex alien equation in a mysterious black book. Rather unexpectedly, the young physics prodigy opened a portal to a dimension outside the physical universe. Stuck in a realm called the Dark World, Randall must navigate ancient ruins, alien armies and monsters to get back home. He learns that his Australian colleagues are on their way to a sunken city where a horrible cosmic god lies sleeping. Because of him, they might be on the verge of waking it up. With the help of the citizens of the Dark World, including a sixty-five million year old dinosaur, the race is on for Randall to work out how to cross dimensions and deliver valuable information for the coming fight. Only, he isn’t the only human trapped out there. US Navy SEAL Patrick Leeson, aka Neanderthal, has arrived too. Along with humanity’s most famous religious figure, Randall has to figure out how to get them all back to Earth. And time is ticking…
