bloodgod
An archaeological
expedition to a desert region uncovers both an ancient temple with strange
hieroglyphics as well as an old man with a story to tell. Merricah speaks
of a creature that decimated most of two tribes, and relays the whereabouts
of a magical box that contains the Master of Kar’mi’shah. He has remained
in isolation inside the buried temple for hundreds of years, waiting for the
tribes to return, and for someone to release his Master.
Jenner Hoard
is a thief recently released from prison. Montague, his benefactor, does not
want him to quit working for him, and already has two lucrative jobs lined
up for an anonymous customer, a deal involving the Blood Of The Ancients,
and the theft of a mysterious box from an apartment building in London.
Times have never
been more desperate for the vampire community living in the darkest depths
of London. Alexia is one such vampire who has a brutal encounter with
The Howler of Westminster after a butchered corpse is found floating in
the Thames. Human vampire hunters, known as Skulkers, have become more
skillful and connected over the years, and find easy prey in those demons
who are too careless about their actions. Join Alexia as she struggles
to survive in a dark and foreboding world, where even demons suffer anguish,
and in death there is still a fight.

eden
There
is a gateway to paradise, and it exists in the most unlikely of places,
the very heart of London. If someone owns it, it can be bought. If no
one owns it, it can be claimed. The race is on to hold possession of the
eighth wonder of the known world, and the name of that eighth wonder shall
be called Eden.
Jenner Hoard
is now a prophet for what few vampires remain in London, guiding those that
would not open his throat towards the gateway that would lead them home. Catherine
Calleh, the most vicious of all vampires, is forced to endure the mortal world
she loathes as she searches for her dead husband now risen from the grave.
Her journey between
worlds will not be without suffering and loss, but only at its end will
she learn the truth about love, hate and devotion, as well as the responsibility
of existence itself. Eden is the long awaited sequel to his best-selling
novel Bloodgod, and continues the reader’s descent into the dark underworld
of the vampire gods of Kar’mi’shah.

the business
of fear
A young
thief steals a mystical deck of cards, only to incur the wrath of their
unnatural owner. A mother is tormented by forms that seem to move within
the shadows of her house. A man stops at midnight to fix a flat tyre and
sees eyes watching him from the blackness of the woods.
From malevolent
ghosts to carnivorous cats, from street-walking angels to life-loving
zombies, The Business Of Fear is a collection of twenty four dark tales
that unravels the mind and makes us face our most primal nightmares. With
this book, his first collection of short stories, Paul Stuart Kemp takes
us on an exploration of the human capacity for fear, playing on our emotions,
and exploring what it means to be afraid.

the unholy
In
an old forester's cottage in rural southern England, Irene and Michael
Rider, a young married couple, decide one night to 'play the ouija'. What
they invite into their new home begins to take its toll not only on their
lives, but also on the lives of those around them, and the lives of their,
as yet, unborn children. Trapped in a world in which they no longer have
choices, they struggle to raise the idyllic family of which they've always
dreamed. The birds in the trees are watching them, waiting for some eternal
event, but the ancient evil that sits behind their eyes has time on its
hands, time enough to wait forever.
The Unholy takes
the reader into his darkest world yet; a place of demonic possession,
of nightmarish visions and creatures, and the destruction of an entire
family. But only at the heart of this world can true values be found:
the resilience of love, the sanctity of marriage, and what it means to
be human.
