He’s chased her for years. Now, she might just let him catch her. The only female on the Dragon’s council and one of only a few female blacks in existence, Adra is used to being the odd one out. The one never picked for games as a kid. The unpopular one. So handsome playboy Nik Waldek’s attention is unsettling. He’s exactly the sort of man her mother warned her about. The slick charmer who would get her pregnant then leave her when he’s had his fun. Conned into parading herself in front of his business associates for the weekend, Adra begins to see a different side to Nik. The problem is, how does she know if that’s the real Nik or whether it’s just an act to get her to let down her guard as she so desperately wants to… He’s wanted her for years. But she won’t give him the time of day… Nikolai Waldek has been in love with Adra since the first day he met her. Both black dragons and council members, they live together, train together and fight together… but she brushes off every advance he makes and try as he might, he can’t get past the dragoness’s iron-clad guard. So much so, he’s beginning to think she’s more ice-dragon than black dragon and is losing hope of the happily-ever-after he craves with her. In a last ditch attempt, he makes a gamble on a game of cards. His prize for winning? Her as his ‘girlfriend’ for the weekend. Once away from the court, can he finally make her see he’s the perfect dragon for her?

China, the greatest empire the world had ever known, is weak and divided after a series of humiliating defeats in the Opium Wars, and the divine Empress' court harbours many who deeply resent the westerners who inflicted and now take advantage of these losses. Japan, on the other hand, has embraced the West with open arms. After centuries of isolation the Japanese now march forwards and accept technologies that, a few decades before, would have been regarded as witchcraft. Possessed of the East's most modern army, Japan now looks avariciously towards its neighbours. The next decade will decide whether the ancient empires of the East survive or are washed away, and every one of the Great Powers wants their slice.

Welcome to Dr. Critchlore’s School for Minions, the premier trainer of minions for Evil Overlords everywhere. No student is prouder to be at Dr. Critchlore’s than Runt Higgins, a twelve-year-old werewolf. (At least he thinks he’s twelve. He was abandoned at the school as a baby, so he can’t say for sure.) Runt loves everything about Dr. Critchlore’s. He loves his classes—such as History of Henchmen and Introduction to Explosives. He loves his friends—such as Darthin the gargoyle and Syke the tree nymph. And he loves his foster family, who took him in when his wolf pack couldn’t. But not everyone loves Dr. Critchlore’s as much as Runt. After a series of disasters, each worse than the next, it’s clear that someone is trying to shut the school down. It’s up to Runt, who knows the place better than anybody, to figure out who’s behind the attacks . . . and to save his home, and Dr. Critchlore himself, from total destruction.

The Encyclopedia covers the genre from 1920 to 1994. The genre, however, can be very confusing: films often have several titles, and many of the stars have more than one pseudonym. In an effort to clarify some of the confusion, the authors have included all the information available to them on almost 3,300 films. Each entry includes a listing of the production company, the cast and crew, distributors, running times, reviews with star ratings whenever possible, and alternate film titles. A list of film series and one of the stars' pseudonyms, in addition to a 7,900 name index, are also included. Illustrated.
