Beauty and the Beast may be a tale as old as time, but never has it been more imaginatively told than in the 1987-1990 live action television series created by Ron Koslow. The concept has a noble lion-man, Vincent (Ron Perlman), a member of a vast wondrous community located beneath the streets of Manhattan, who saves the life of New York socialite turned assistant district attorney Catherine Chandler (Linda Hamilton). As he nurses her back to health, a connection is formed between them that drives the rest of the series as their worlds intertwine, exploring their love and the darker underpinnings of society. For the series' 25th anniversary, the author looks back at the making of the series, beginning with profiles of Hamilton and Perlman. His research continues with a behind-the-scenes look at every episode through the eyes of the various writers and directors who helped bring it to life, among them George R.R. Martin, creator of Game of Thrones; and the team of Howard Gordon and Alex Gansa, creative minds behind Homeland. Together, they recount struggles with the network, (including fears regarding the Catherine/Vincent romance), the challenge of changing creative course in response to declining ratings, and being forced to completely reconceptualize the series when Hamilton departed at the end of season two and they struggled with how to produce the show without a leading lady to portray Beauty. Discover the magical, enthralling history of the imaginative series in a richly researched work that captures the glamour, excitement, and back stories never before told. About the Author: Edward Gross is an entertainment journalist, who has served on the editorial staff on a number of magazines and web sites. He is currently executive editor of Movie Magic and Life Story magazines, a regular contributor to SciFi Now and Geek, and the author of numerous nonfiction works covering film and television.

A tale as old as time is made new in Ashley Poston's fresh, geeky retelling of Beauty and the Beast—now with a bonus Starfield story! Rosie Thorne is feeling stuck—on her college application essays, in her small town, and on that mysterious General Sond cosplayer she met at ExcelsiCon. Most of all, she’s stuck in her grief over her mother’s death. Her only solace was her late mother’s library of rare Starfield novels, but even that disappeared when they sold it to pay off hospital bills. On the other hand, Vance Reigns has been Hollywood royalty for as long as he can remember—with all the privilege and scrutiny that entails. When a tabloid scandal catches up to him, he’s forced to hide out somewhere the paparazzi would never expect to find him: Small Town USA. At least there’s a library in the house. Too bad he doesn’t read. When Vance’s and Rosie’s paths collide, sparks do not fly. But as they begrudgingly get to know each other, their careful masks come off—and they may just find that there’s more risk in shutting each other out than in opening their hearts.

The Beast Books 1-3. The Complete Series of Bestselling Novellas in One Book. The Beast: A Werewolf Horror If there's no such thing as werewolves then why are all my friends dead? A werewolf is preying upon the denizens of a small town. The only people who know what it is, who understand what is happening, are children. A group of third graders isn't exactly the most credible source of information, especially when it comes to the fantastical. They grow up being ridiculed, shunned, bullied and mistreated by their peers and the broader community. Years later it returns, but this time Thomas and his friends are prepared for it. As the body count rises and the tension mounts throughout the town, only The Freaks (as they call themselves), have come to terms with what it is. After all, they have seen it before. They have seen the blood it spilled firsthand. Nobody is above suspicion. Not even family members. Thomas and his friends cannot trust anyone, must suspect everyone. As children, they learned the truth. As grown werewolf hunters, they must use every bit of courage they have to face the monster. Nothing short of killing it will suffice. Inspired by horror stories and movies from when Werewolves were actually scary. When shifters had fangs. When monsters spilled blood and guts, and nobody cared how nice their abs were. An homage to Stephen King's Cycle of the Werewolf and movies such as An American Werewolf in London, and the Howling series, The Beast will curdle your blood with fear. The Beast Returns: A Werewolf Horror I've become the very thing I swore to destroy. I've become the beast itself. Thomas awakens from surgery after a brutal stabbing leaves him nearly dead. He finds himself a helpless prisoner, awaiting trial for murder. Until the full moon comes. Until he changes for the first time... When he shifts, Thomas doesn't have control. As he commits savage act after savage act, of murder and dismemberment, his nerves shatter. Now on the run, he seeks solace with a pack of his own kind, but his presence throws the pack dynamic into chaos. As all hell breaks loose around him, Thomas tries to flee from his horrible past. Unable to tell who is friend, and who is foe, he enters a fight for his very survival. The Beast's Revenge: A Werewolf Horror The exciting conclusion to the bestselling series of werewolf novellas, The Beast! After running away from his pack Thomas tries to begin a new life on the other side of the country.Little does he know that a crazed bounty hunter pursues him. A bounty hunter who knows his dark secret. The pack, unwilling to let go of one of their own, tracks the young werewolf from Florida to Oregon. With Thomas's life on the line, and the possibility of the pack being exposed, they must race to find him before the bounty hunter.

I’ll do anything to find them and so will the beast that lives inside me. I don’t know how much time has passed. I don’t know where I am or where I’m going, I just know that two men are waiting for me and that I belong with them.

My father made sure of it. And now I am fated to watch the only man I’ve ever truly loved die in front of me.
