Souls have power. For thousands of years, self proclaimed gods fought to collect more and more of them, waging battles that raged among the living and the dead. The wars only stopped when they were betrayed by one of their own, locked away in a nightmare prison until they slowly melted away. An order was formed to ensure such powerful creatures never again came into existence. Upon dying, Thomas Salazar found himself recruited into this order. Within hours of becoming a full member, Thomas now finds the order decimated and himself among the most senior members remaining. The architect of his order's downfall appears to be someone bent on becoming exactly what he's now sworn to stop. But to stop this threat, will he become something far more dangerous?

"You know, I thought when I died.... I really thought at the time that was the end of my goodbyes. Either the Good Book was right and I was headed to a place of endless happiness, or it was complete rubbish and I would just cease to be. Either way I was prepared. But this... after all this time I am still not prepared for this." Thomas Salazar didn't know what to expect when he died, but it certainly wasn't Jack Macintyre. Yet here he was, dead, with Jack standing there offering him a job. In a world where reality can respond to your every thought, a job that offers endless surprises can be enticing. Leaving life behind, however, isn't easy and the job holds its own risks. To complicate matters, the more souls he meets, the more Thomas realizes that everybody, including Jack, has an agenda they're not fully disclosing. Even Thomas's childhood pet seems to have secrets. "How is it that death is so much more complicated than life?"

About Making Monsters A political undercurrent exists that resembles cyberpunk. Sci-fi elements remain near future and fuse with horror fiction. Some tales have what may appear to be shock tactics, but these passages also build the story as a whole. The stories vary in length from short-short to tales at long story or short novella length. The book would be about 520 pages in regular paperback.

The final novel in H. Rider Haggard’s much-anticipated trilogy, ‘Allan and the Ice Gods’, sees the return of Allan Quatermain and features Lady Luna Ragnall and the taduki drug yet again. This time, however, Allan is refusing to see Lady Luna Ragnall. The awkwardness of the last three drug-induced visions, revealing their marriage, left him squirming. But she is about to let spill that their ancient counterparts were right. And they were indeed married. As Allan is yet again transported to the barbaric Ice Age, can he restore order in the tribe? And more importantly, can he weave in new technology and intelligence without unbalancing history? ‘Allan and the Ice Gods’ is the ideal rip-roaring tale, perfect for adventure-fantasy fans of Jack Black’s ‘Gulliver’s Travels’. H. Rider Haggard KBE (1856-1925) was an English writer of adventure fiction romances and a pioneer of the lost world genre. His rip-roaring tales include ‘King Solomon’s Mines’, ‘Allan Quatermain’, ‘Nada the Lilly’ and the epic Viking romance ‘Eric Brighteyes’. Portraying the stereotypes of colonialism, his work also focused on agricultural and social reform. It’s no surprise that Haggard is remembered today as an influential figure in land reform throughout the British Empire.

Once more Quatermain takes the hallucinogenic taduki drug, as he did in previous novels, and he finds himself reliving as Wi, an civilized man living in the barbaric ice age as part of a clan of cavemen. The novel has been noted as a treatment of the topics of eugenics and evolution in literature and culture.

"Rich detail and vivid anecdotes of adventure....A treasure trove of exotic fact and hard thinking." —New York Times Book Review For millennia, lions, tigers, and their man-eating kin have kept our dark, scary forests dark and scary, and their predatory majesty has been the stuff of folklore. But by the year 2150 big predators may only exist on the other side of glass barriers and chain-link fences. Their gradual disappearance is changing the very nature of our existence. We no longer occupy an intermediate position on the food chain; instead we survey it invulnerably from above—so far above that we are in danger of forgetting that we even belong to an ecosystem. Casting his expert eye over the rapidly diminishing areas of wilderness where predators still reign, the award-winning author of The Song of the Dodo and The Tangled Tree examines the fate of lions in India's Gir forest, of saltwater crocodiles in northern Australia, of brown bears in the mountains of Romania, and of Siberian tigers in the Russian Far East. In the poignant and troublesome ferocity of these embattled creatures, we recognize something primeval deep within us, something in danger of vanishing forever.

From Myths to Monsters is a grouping of some short stories written over many years. The stories are about a variety of subjects, both good and bad, and do not accept Political Correctness as an option. Be ready for a collection that goes from a highflying sorcerous/warrior to dragon’s appreciation or lack thereof, to a deadly dragon, to symbolism in stories, to a class reunion to a sneaky teacher. Be advised the good guy doesn’t always win and dragons don’t always eat their prey. I expect the grouping to find some life among the readers.

'Do monsters always stay in the book where they were born? Are they content to live out their lives on paper, and never step foot into the real world?' The Villa Diodati, on the shore of Lake Geneva, 1816: the Year without Summer. As Byron, Polidori, and Mr and Mrs Shelley shelter from the unexpected weather, old ghost stories are read and new ghost stories imagined. Born by the twin brains of the Shelleys is Frankenstein, one of the most influential tales of horror of all time. In a remote mountain house, high in the French Alps, an author broods on Shelley's creation. Reality and perception merge, fuelled by poisoned thoughts. Humankind makes monsters; but who really creates who? This is a book about reason, the imagination, and the creative act of reading and writing. Marcus Sedgwick's ghostly, menacing novel celebrates the legacy of Mary Shelley's literary debut in its bicentenary year.
