When Daemon Starre awakens in a foreign hospital room with no remembrance of how he got there or where ‘there’ is, fear threatens to overtake him. However, what strikes him as even stranger than that reality is when he realizes he is in the human dimension. Daemon’s home is known as The Daemonium, a dimension built into The Northern Lights almost a thousand years ago, and he is what is known as a supressere, a supernatural being with extrordinary abilities. He, along with his best friend Niles Pemnora, are thrown into a deadly man hunt, with Daemon being the prey. Who is he running from? A nightmarish High Angel named Pierce Shadow. Jocylin Zirander has been living in the human dimension for eleven years since she ran away from home at age 9. Her life would seem perfectly normal to any outsider, but she is a supressere with secrets. She has successfully hid from her past, but when she runs into Daemon and Niles during her night shift at Walmart, she knows her past is threatening to envelope her once again. Who is she running from? One name: Pierce Shadow. And who is Pierce Shadow besides the most powerful supernatural being within The Daemonium? Three words: broken, unpredictable, and full of vengeance. A man fights his demons. A woman whose family is torn. A child born to bring the end. A dimension where the past and the present are at war. This is “The Shadows Among the Starres”.

In 1966 a coal slag heap collapsed on a school in south Wales, killing 144 people, most of them children. Poet Owen Sheers has given voice to those who still live in Aberfan, the pit village in which tragedy struck, and uses their collective memories to create a striking work of poetic power. This is a portrait not just of what happened, but also of what was lost. What was Aberfan like in 1966? What were the interests of the people, the social life, the sporting obsessions, the bands of the day? What was the deeper history of the place? Why had it become the mining village it was, and what had it been before the discovery of coal under its soil? Perhaps most significantly: what is Aberfan like today? The Green Hollow is a historical story with a deeply urgent contemporary resonance; a story of what can happen when a community is run by a corporation. It is also a story known along generational rather than geographic borders. Based on the BBC One production, The Green Hollow is a beautifully rendered picture of a time and place - and a life-altering event whose effects are irrevocable.

Unemployed English professor Emily Murray has been given a chance of a lifetime: to work and study inside Gnarled Hollow, the former estate of one of her favorite authors. She doesn’t believe in the supernatural, but by the end of her first day, she knows something is wrong. The house has a disturbing habit of changing dimensions--and nor just physical ones. Rooms go missing, doors close on their own, and time has a strange tendency to disappear. Emily is joined by other scholars, among them the beautiful art historian, Juniper Friend. Together they begin to research the history of the house, refusing to abandon their work despite the appearance of a mysterious, frightening presence. Spurred on by their desire to uncover the mysteries of Gnarled Hollow and its ghostly inhabitant, they’re determined to uncover the truth, even if it means risking their own lives.
