Diary of a Sorceress
The young poet Ashley Dioses has already established herself as a leading voice in contemporary weird poetry. Known for her meticulous use of rhyme and meter, her deft melding of the strange and the erotic, and her novel treatments of such age-old themes as the vampire, the witch, and the ghoul, Dioses now gathers the best of her recent poetry into her first collection--a scintillating assemblage of nearly 100 poems short and long, published and unpublished. With this single volume, Ashley Dioses takes her place as a worthy successor to the long line of California Romantics, beginning with Ambrose Bierce, Clark Ashton Smith, and Nora May French, and carrying on with Donald Sidney-Fryer and K. A. Opperman (The Crimson Tome), with whom she has worked closely. Ashley Dioses is a poet from Southern California whose work has appeared widely in print and online venues, including Spectral Realms, Weirdbook, Weird Fiction Review, and HWA Poetry Showcase.
Darkest Days and Haunted Ways
With Darkest Days and Haunted Ways, renowned horror poet Ashley Dioses shows us the twisted roots at the very heart of her bleak and macabre vision. Once meant for inclusion with the rest of her formative work in The Withering but omitted for stylistic reasons, these poems nevertheless attain a doomful thematic cohesion all their own. Originally written by the young poetess between the impressionable ages of fourteen and seventeen, but now polished by an experienced hand, these poems directly reflect-as in a cold, cracked mirror-the angst and emotional turmoil that informed those years of her life. With the publication of this book, these macabre paeans and lamentations of the damned take their rightful place beside The Withering as its indispensable companion volume.With a foreword by K. A. Opperman and an afterword by the author. Illustrated.

Feast of Fools and Other Tales
Mythic tales, legends and lore are part of every human culture. From the quests of Greek myth, to China's Journey to the West, from India's Mahabharata to the Anglo-Saxon Beowulf, our histories resound with the clang of swords, and the struggle of heroes and heroines against dark forces and foul sorcery. In the 20th century, Robert E Howard, among others, pioneered modern mythologies which have become known as Sword and Sorcery. This anthology continues that tradition, with eleven new sizzling S&S tales from the pens of the Innsmouth Writing Circle. The yarns within feature a cast of lucky thieves, avenging barbarians, bold swordswomen, and temple plunderers, not to mention sorcerers, necrom...
The Averoigne Legacy
NOT THE END OF THE STORY The lore of Averoigne didn’t end with Clark Ashton Smith.

Revisit Vyônes and Périgon, meet Luc le Chaudronnier and Azédarac once again,as old foes like the Gargoyles of Vyônes Cathedral and the Colossus of Ylourgne return to wreck more havoc.
