THREE ENTERTAINING STORIES FULL OF BLOODY BLACK HUMOR..."TARA FROM THE TAR PITS" is an edgy horror/black humor tale of a nice girl named Tara who drowns in LA's La Brea Tar Pits, but comes back to life very transformed...from a kind-hearted vegetarian...into a cold-blooded, cannibalistic, pre-historic killer. As the body count rises, her desperate family must find her before the police do (and kill her) - and they must somehow figure out a way to get her back to the way she was before. Watch out, LA...It was here first...ages ago...and it's back! "I WAS A TEENAGE SERIAL KILLER WARLOCK" tells the unique story of Homer, a low-key stoner high school kid with a very dark secret, and deadly special gift...he's a warlock who can kill with his wishes. And those wishes become especially dark and violent when the school jocks foolishly bully and abuse him. Blood splatters copiously in this darkly humorous tale of horror, magic...and something many of us have probably wished for at least once...deadly high school revenge! "A FEYROCIOUSLY FIERCE GHOST STORY" is the delicious ghostly tale of a creepy old house haunted by its late owners...two outrageous gay men who died shockingly violent deaths there under very mysterious circumstances. So they make life a living hell for the Field family, who unsuspectingly buys the house and moves into it. A deadly, bloody battle of wills ensues between the stubborn ghosts and the resilient new owners...that's full of twisted and sometimes raunchy humor...and chills, spills, and kills!

Also known as Thomas of Woodstock, this unique edition is the only one based on a computerized analysis of the anonymous, hand-written MS in the British Library. Designed for actors and directors, but including scholarly notes and a comparative review of the MS's 13 earlier editions, the meticulously edited text concludes with a 'conjectural emendation' in the Elizabethan manner winding up the story. Is it by Shakespeare? This long-forgotten masterpiece completes the 'Hollow Crown' cycle filling in the narrative between Edward III and Shakespeare's Richard II, which begins immediately after its dramatic depiction of King Richard's first deposition and restoration in December, 1387.

A satirical take on current news, often outrageous and always funny. Feature stories resemble newspaper reports, interviews with celebrities (such as Mark Twain, Christopher Hitchens and Donald Trump) and an op/ed section that asks, among other questions, "Why Are Cartoonists All Called Tom?"

Kyle Halfpenny is taking care of her dad who is preparing for the end of the world. Touching, unpredictable and deftly woven, the narrative moves between the real world and the imagined. An outstanding debut about isolation, loyalty and hope.

Steak & Stations reports from a landscape of contrasts and contradictions: of speed and consumption, haute cuisine and isolated railway platforms; from nocturnal inner-city encounters to rural wildernesses where schoolgirls 'climb into the wind'.
