"I have some friends and we had a crazy idea: let's summon a demon. Not just any demon but a sexy devil chick that will do anything we want--even butt stuff. It'll be easy. It's not like it's going to work. Monsters aren't real. We were wrong. Really fucking wrong. The demon is not what we thought and it's making horrible things happen. People are cutting into each other's junk, some guy is fucking his dog, and sex slugs from Hell are raping us and stealing our semen in order to build a goddamn hive! We didn't mean for any of this. But we're gonna fix it ... Just after a few more beers and bong hits"--Back cover.
Exquisite revenge and knitted doppelgängers; heartbreak and happy endings; unicorns, doomed dogs, and penitent frogs; steampunk fairies, conflicted stepmothers, and baseball--you'll find it all here. Our literary alchemists weave a spell of fascination, drawing you deeper and deeper, tale by tale, until escape is impossible. But you'll enjoy every minute of the plunge. These sixteen deft and delightful stories involving witches, stitches, and bitches run the gamut from darkly disturbing to just plain fun. They will each take you out of the ordinary and into the world of magic, where older, weirder, or merely other rules apply. And just when you think things are all sewn up... some bitch may have a surprise for you. Includes stories by Gabrielle Harbowy, Caren Gussof, Kodiak Julian, and Christine Morgan, among others.
Set in Romania in the early 1930s, readers will sorrow and rejoice in this dramatic, true story of political conflict, poverty, bravery and deep faith. Includes striking photographs from the author's collection.

Five college housemates-brainy Rachel, sporty Jessie, angry Darlene, quiet Gwen, and mysterious Annamaria. One ordinary evening at home, engaged in their various pursuits-studying, showering, watching a program about serious killers. Eight little words... "I bet we could get away with it." It was just an offhand remark. The next thing they know... there they are a body at their feet, and the pressure's on to prove those eight little words. After all, why wouldn't they get away with it? Who'd suspect a bunch of coeds? They don't fit the usual profile, or go for the usual kind of victims. They're as smart, as strong, as cruel, and as capable as any serial killer out there. It's time for a little payback and a little revenge. It's time for the local guys to learn about living in fear. It's time for the Murder Girls.
Listen... The furious clangor of battle. The harrowing singing of steel. The desperate cries of wounded animals. The gasps of bleeding, dying men. The slow, deep breathing of terrible things--trolls, giants, draugr--waiting in the darkness. The wolf's wind howling, stalking like death itself. The carrion-crows, avaricious and impatient, circling the battle-ground, the Raven's Table. Listen... The skald's voice, low, canting, weaving tales of fate and heroism, battle and revelry. Of gods and monsters, and of the women and men that stand against them. Of stormy Scandinavian skies and settlements upon strange continents. Of mead-hall victories, funeral pyres, dragon-prowed ships, and gold-laden tombs. Of Ragnarok. Of Valhalla. For a decade, author Christine Morgan's Viking stories have delighted readers and critics alike, standing apart from the anthologies they appeared in. Now, Word Horde brings you The Raven's Table, the first-ever collection of Christine Morgan's Vikings, from "The Barrow-Maid" to "Aerkheim's Horror" and beyond. These tales of adventure, fantasy, and horror will rouse your inner Viking.
Some things, according to Cody McCall, are worth risking a whipping. Such as, sneaking out with your friends after dark for a peek at the traveling show setting up just outside of town. Oddities, the signs promise. Marvels. Grotesqueries. Exotic attractions and mysterious magics.Not as if they'd be allowed to attend otherwise, not with parents and preacher and schoolmarm all disapproving. But how often does a chance like this come along? There isn't much else by way of excitement in quiet, peaceful Silver River, a once-prosperous boom town slowly gone bust. Worth risking a whipping, sure. Worth risking life and limb, and maybe more? Worth risking being ripped to pieces by ravenous, inhuman brutes? Worth crossing paths with those strange, silent cult-folk from the high valley? Worth all the fire and bloodshed and horror and death?Because something far worse than any ordinary traveling show has come to town, and one thing is for certain: those who survive, if any, will never forget the night Silver River run red.
