At last, _Up Through an Empty House of Stars_ brings together the best of the never before collected SF reviews and articles that helped build David Langford's towering reputation since 1980. Complementing the review columns collected in _The Complete Critical Assembly_ and the knockabout essays and squibs in _The Silence of the Langford_, this volume's 100 glittering selections mix serious critical insight with the inimitable Langford wit. In 2002 David Langford won his sixteenth Hugo award as Best Fan Writer, for critical and humorous commentary on SF. In the same year his occasionally scandalous SF newsletter _Ansible_ won its fifth Hugo. Langford also received the 2001 Hugo for best short story, and the 2002 Skylark Award. Here he shines a unique light on classics like Ernest Bramah, G.K. Chesterton, Robert Heinlein and Jack Vance, and analyses major SF -- and major clunkers, and minor eccentrics -- of the 1980s, 1990s and early 2000s, continuing to the latest by such current stars as Gene Wolfe and China Mi, ville. Plus witty asides on crime fiction and its SF links, gleeful examination of writing so bad it's almost good, and (even at his most serious) turns of phrase to make you laugh aloud

The Ballad of the White Horse is one of the last great epic poems in the English language. On the one hand it describes King Alfredಙs battle against the Danes in 878. On the other hand it is a timeless allegory about the ongoing battle between Christianity and the forces of nihilistic heathenism. Filled with colorful characters, thrilling battles and mystical visions, it is as lively as it is profound. Chesterton incorporates brilliant imagination, atmosphere, moral concern, chronological continuity, wisdom and fancy. He makes his stanzas reverberate with sound, and hurries his readers into the heart of the battle. This deluxe volume is the definitive edition of the poem. It exactly reproduces the 1928 edition with Robert Austinಙs beautiful woodcuts, and includes a thorough introduction and wonderful endnotes by Sister Bernadette Sheridan, from her 60 years researching the poem. Illustrated.

The material for this book falls roughly into two parts: spoken and written. Gilbert Chesterton was not an old man when he died and many of his friends and contemporaries have told me incidents and recalled sayings right back to his early boyhood. This part of the material has been unusually rich and copious so that I could get a clearer picture of the boy and the young man than is usually granted to the biographer. Aeterna Press

Rock You (book 1) Working for a cranky hermit in an isolated house sounds like Ruby’s idea of heaven – but her boss isn't what she expects. Tex is a fugitive from the rock and roll world after a tragedy halted his career. The two of them live together but avoid each other until Tex screws up, forcing them to move into closer quarters. The sanctuary they build is enough for Ruby, but the outside world encroaches. She thinks their fledgling love can’t shine brighter than the rock dream but can Ruby bear to let Tex go? Cry For You (book 2) A million girls would swap places with me in a heartbeat. They weep for Tex and maul each other to get closer to him. The way they obsessed over him and put him on pedestal scared the hell out of me. I don't want our relationship made public. Every single fan would question my place beside me. Hell, I question it myself. Tex is a star and I'm nobody. Even worse, there's one fan scarier than all the rest. She'd go to any lengths to get Tex. Tex promised to protect me but she watches my every move, just waiting for her chance to destroy me. Be With You (book 3) So finally our house has been rebuilt and Tex is on track with his career. But where does that leave me? Tex thinks we can build a future together but I worry that I'm too damaged to be with him. It doesn't help that the man who almost destroyed me in the past comes back into my life. How can Tex help me when he has cracks appearing in his own life? He thinks he’s dealt with his sister’s death but he’s in denial. Is the love we share enough to overcome the ghosts of our pasts?

Jonathan Star is a respected professor at Georgetown University, but he has a double life. His other identity, known only to a few, is a Black-Ops Operative known as the Scorpion. Retired to his mountain home in the Himalayas, he is reluctantly reactivated by the General for one last mission. Jade Ming, a beautiful Eurasian woman, is Star's personal assistant. She is trained in the way of the Bushido and skilled in the martial arts. Together they must stop a psychotic tech mogul from creating a race of Transhumans that would be under his total control.
