Promises broken… On Earth’s once decimated surface, the last of an ancient people live-they believe they are the only ones left. Not far from their mountain home, another populace survived the Decline. Deep within the earth they toil for their masters in the cavernous underworld called Last Haven-their only lawful diversion a gladiatorial blood sport played on ice called Mazeplay. One man in that underground city believes he and his fellow citizens are being lied to, that the return to the surface they have been promised is being withheld so those in power can remain so. He’s willing to risk his life to prove it. He'll have to.
Peter Burns doesn’t believe in magic, but when horses talk to you and a witch hound swoops out of the sky, how long can you disbelieve? Jeanne Tucker believes in magic, but she’s teamed with someone who’d rather examine the special effects. The two friends must learn to work together in order to defeat a trio of evil witches and unravel a curse that has enslaved an entire land.
Harold Waterman isn't like other boys, but when a clutch of interfering angels decide he's going to be the Antichrist that's going a bit too far. Stricken with a terminal illness by the angel of pestilence, Harold summons a demon, and only then does he learn he comes from an unusual family. Well, more unusual than even he'd been aware of. As he and Jasfoup look for a cure, Harold discovers not only some rather useful talents but that the world as he knows it...isn't.
What do knitters Permelia O’Brien and Betty Fitzandreu have in common besides a love of knitting? Both have been betrayed by their husbands. Permelia moved to town when her husband left her for a much younger woman. Her new apartment is over the town morgue and when she finds Betty’s husband’s hat in the parking lot after Ed Anderson’s body is brought in it quickly becomes clear that Betty’s husband wasn’t just cheating with another woman. He had a whole other family. Still, that doesn’t explain why someone murdered him, and as Permelia and her new friends dig deeper into the mystery, it becomes clear the killer isn’t finished yet.
50 Rooms is a collection of short stories based around a cast of characters who live in and around an abandoned hotel just off Hollywood Boulevard-two homeless teenage punk rockers who roam the streets of Los Angeles, scamming and stealing just to survive another night in a brutal and unforgiving city; a man who works in a slaughterhouse desperately fighting to keep his sanity and find some kind of meaning in his life; an emotionally abused small person who reaches his breaking point in a convenience store; a maniacal Hollywood stuntman and his neglected girlfriend and a writer who is visited by the ghost of Charles Bukowski. These are just a few of the inhabitants of the dark corners of thi...
It's Christmas Eve in the city that never sleeps, but Ebenezer doesn't feel like celebrating. Her girlfriend of ten years has just left her, her job as a debt collector is slowly killing her, and worst of all, she hasn't truly acted in years. But when three spirits representing the places and ambitions closest to her heart pay her a visit, Ebenezer just might find a reason to end her life-or a reason to keep going. Set during the global recession, this retelling of Charles Dickens's immortal classic A Christmas Carol explores the vagaries of growing up and exchanging old dreams for new meaning.
