Miles O'Malley and his horse, Paul, encounter everything from ghosts to monsters from Mars as they romp through the Old West.
Saddle up for a wild ride through the weird, weird west. As you ride our trails you'll want to keep one eye on the path ahead and one over your shoulder cause there's a bushwhacking monster creeping up behind you. If your horse gets eaten by a monster, you might be able to get a ride on the midnight train, as long as you don't mind sitting with ghosts. If you don't catch the train, maybe the devil can give you a lift back to town. Just be careful which place you head for, because the folks in one town are about to die. Staying on ranches ain't much safer, especially at one girl's birthday party. Then again, even going to outhouses can be deadly. If you happen to visit the local brothel, be sure and treat the ladies right or you'll pay dearly. And Tombstone is no place to get your picture taken if you want to keep your skin.

Published on the occasion of Bridget Riley’s major exhibition at David Zwirner in London in the summer of 2014, this fully illustrated catalogue offers intimate explorations of paintings and works on paper produced by the legendary British artist over the past fifty years, focusing specifically on her recurrent use of the stripe motif. Riley has devoted her practice to actively engaging viewers through elementary shapes such as lines, circles, curves, and squares, creating visual experiences that at times trigger optical sensations of vibration and movement. The London show, her most extensive presentation in the city since her 2003 retrospective at Tate Britain, explored the stunning visu...
Bridget Riley’s explorations of perception through form and color have made her into one of the most significant painters working today. Since the early 1960s, she has used elementary shapes—lines, circles, curves, and squares—to create visual experiences that immediately draw the viewer in, often triggering optical vibrations and illusions. More recently, Riley has shifted back to black and white in her large-scale paintings, marking a departure from her recent colored stripe paintings and a return to the palette of some of her earliest works. Published on the occasion of her 2015 solo exhibition at David Zwirner, Bridget Riley: Works 1981–2015 presents paintings from the last thirt...
Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad… Humans and mers have reinstated an alliance long abandoned, and the sea demons no longer threaten the Bahamas. The underwater civilizations are at peace for the first time in millennia. Then a devastating plague returns to devastate the submerged cities, turning mers into insane, ravening beasts. A plague that invariably ends in death. Legend says a cure lies hidden somewhere in a secret cave, and newlyweds David and Faryn set off with their friends to find it. Only then is the true source of the disease revealed—an evil being as old as time whose hatred of the mers will only be satisfied when their entire civilization has been destroyed.
