Four scrappy kids romp through a series of adventures and mishaps, accompanied by a pint-sized mob of friends and pets. They devise sinister plots to kidnap the Tooth Fairy, dress up as Egyptian Mummies and leap out at unsuspecting strangers on dark nights, smuggle puppies into the house, drive their starchy governess to tears, and pummel each other in horrible wrestling matches. And that’s just the first few chapters. The Khot kids live inside an old Fort and spend their days rambling about in their overgrown garden or on the crumbling ramparts. They might not be very tall but that won’t stop them from getting into all kinds of scrapes. Set in small-town India of the early 90s, these stories will take you back to the simpler time of childhood, when all you needed to be happy was a pocket full of sweets and a dog by your side. What can you expect? • Unruly children up to dreadful tricks • Small-town charm and sibling bonding • Suitable for adults and kids • Not suitable for goody-two-shoes (either kids or parents)

In mid-December of 2014, this author received a call concerning an old friend who had been hospitalized. His name was Karl Learned. He was a retired Portland, Maine, police officer. When the author visited him, they chatted for over two hours. His friend made his journey back to the spirit world ten hours later. He left with the memory of this comment that he made: Bobby, we have a lifetime full of memories. Some of them we never want to forget. Some of them we wish that we could forget. This book contains some of the authors memories from 1967 to 1989 while he worked as a firefighter in Portland, Maine. Aptly nicknamed the generation that burned the city. These stories will raise chuckles, sadness, old memories, and perhaps resentment. These stories are about both the good side and the dark side of firefighting.

With well over one-hundred episodes, the podcast Welcome to Night Vale has spawned several international live tours, two novels set in the Night Vale universe, and an extensive volume of fan fiction and commentary. However, despite its immense popularity, Welcome to Night Vale has received almost no academic scrutiny. This edited collection of scholarly essays—the very first of its kind on a podcast—attempts to redress this lack of attention to Night Vale by bringing together an international group of scholars from different disciplines to consider the program’s form, themes, politics, and fanbase. After a thorough introduction by the volume’s editor, Jeffrey Andrew Weinstock, the eight contributors not only offer close analysis of Night Vale, but use the program as the impetus for broader explorations of new media, gender, the constitution of identity, the construction of place, and the human relationship to meaning and the non-human.
