Living the Line LLC Mansect
Book SynopsisHumans grow and age. They change. But always we are the same person, the same creature. Not so with insects, whose powers of metamorphosis alter not only their shape and size, but also their very beings. And now, because of one young man's unhealthy obsession with bugs, humans also find themselves transformed into disgusting, decrepit, bloodsucking insect monsters!Published in 1975, Koga Shinichi's MANSECT is a shonen horror classic by one of the undisputed masters of the genre. Swarming with mesmerizingly gnarly imagery and freakish bio-evolutionary speculation, Koga here demonstrates why his name is uttered with the same quivering reverence as horror manga legends Mizuki Shigeru, Umezz Kazuo, and Ito Junji. MANSECT is the third volume of SMUDGE, a line of vintage horror, occult, and dark fantasy manga, curated and translated by award-winning historian Ryan Holmberg.

Aspekt B.V., Uitgeverij Tales of Terror and Mystery
Book SynopsisTales of Terror and Mystery is a volume collecting 12 short stories written by Arthur Conan Doyle, first published in 1922 by John Murray. The collection is divided in two parts : Tales of Terror with horror stories, and Tales of Mystery with stories with strange schemes. This volume presents some of Conan Doyle s unduly neglected masterworks. Each begins in a quietly factual way, making all the more dramatic the crescendo of fear and puzzlement that ensues as each new circumstance is revealed. Even without his supremely logical brain child, Sherlock Holmes, Conan Doyle shows that his tales are unbeatable for thrills and excitement.

Yes, the billionaire Prime is helping her navigate the complex magical world in which she’s become a crucial player—and sometimes a pawn—but she also has to deal with his ex-fiancée, whose husband has disappeared, and whose damsel-in-distress act is wearing very, very thin.Rogan faces his own challenges, too, as Nevada’s magical rank has made her a desirable match for other Primes. Controlling his immense powers is child’s play next to controlling his conflicting emotions. And now he and Nevada are confronted by a new threat within her own family. Can they face this together? Or is their world about to go up in smoke?Trade Review“Avid readers know that it doesn’t get better than turning fellow readers on to a fantastic book or series, so if paranormal romance aficionados have not yet discovered Andrews’ phenomenal Hidden Legacy trilogy, then they are truly missing out!

This well-crafted book will have you staying up late, turning pages and afraid to turn off the light." -- Paul Doiron, author of The Poacher's Son "Finely drawn characters, a narrative that beguiles and surprises and stark, poetic writing make for a novel as dark and brooding as its rural Vermont setting. The Silent Girls is both an exceptional detective story and a terrifying meditation on good and evil." -- Roger Smith, international best-selling author of Wake Up Dead, Dust Devils, Mixed Blood and Sacrifices "The Silent Girls is a thrilling ride to very dark places.

It'll keep you reading all the way up to its shattering conclusion." -- Jake Hinkson, author of Hell on Church Street and The Big Ugly "From the very first, a feeling of dread crept over me and stayed with me until the end, and remains with me days later.
