"Biting nonfiction about the creatures readers have found irresistible ever since Bram Stoker's Dracula. Authoritative, chilling, and complete, Lust for Blood is a hypnotic, popularly written history of vampires from their most ancient predations all over the world, up to and including 20th-century cases in America and in Europe. Revealing the various forms of vampires and their character, it also spells out the traditional methods men and women have used to protect themselves against the creatures of the night and how both clergy and laity have worked to destroy them. This book surveys not only the famous cases such as that of Countess Báthory, the 'Vampire Lady of the Carpathians", but details even more gripping tales of the undead, and interviews actual modern American vampires--people obsessed by their own lust for blood." --Back cover.

Set in early nineteenth-century Britain, Bloodlust & Bonnets follows Lucy, an unworldly debutante who desires a life of passion and intrigue—qualities which earn her the attention of Lady Violet Travesty, the leader of a local vampire cult. But before Lucy can embark on her new life of vampiric debauchery, she finds herself unexpectedly thrown together with the flamboyant poet Lord Byron (“from books!”) and a mysterious bounty-hunter named Sham. The unlikely trio lie, flirt, fight, and manipulate each other as they make their way across Britain, disrupting society balls, slaying vampires, and making every effort not to betray their feelings to each other as their personal and romantic lives become increasingly entangled. Both witty and slapstick, elegant and gory, Emily McGovern’s debut graphic novel pays tribute to and pokes fun at beloved romance tropes, delivering a joyous, action-packed world of friendship and adventure.

Chinese Popular Prints ventures into the world of Chinese blockprint illustration that had its assured niche in the rich history of Chinese popular culture from the 17th to the early 20th centuries. These prints were not considered high art in China, but were produced for the urban and rural populations. The book deals with all aspects of the Chinese popular print. In the first two chapters its invention, origins, powerful traditions and its history are described. Classical art and the Ming illustrated book were important impetuses. Three major centres of north and central China emerged. Finally the popular print took on something of the roles of the modern cinema or television. In the following four chapters the main themes are: the printmakers and printshops; society, symbolism and visual pun; categories of popular prints and their display; technical terms. A description of the workshops and their techniques, figure drawing and colouring, gives a good insight in the technical side of the print. A varied popular culture and a certain realism are strands in it, as are spirit protection of the house, recalls of the past, hopes for the future, the hold of the theatre, etc. Two elaborate appendices provide much detailed information about persons, symbols, as well as about some images in the lore of the print. A special section of 28 illustrations (8 full colour) demonstrates the potentialities of the Chinese blockprint illustration.

If anyone finds out Jordan's a mytho sympathizer, it could kill his career. No one can know that he frequents the satyr dens and uses the drug Bliss.

Edra, Mythological Services Liaison, has been covering up mytho crimes to protect the community's reputation. With a mayoral election looming, the last thing his people need is a scandal. To get a murderer off the streets, Jordan and Edra will be spending a lot of time together, and it won't be easy to keep up with their deceptions... or to keep resisting each other.

“A novelistic mosaic that simultaneously reads like a thriller and like a strange, dreamlike excursion into the subconscious.” —The New York Times Years ago, when House of Leaves was first being passed around, it was nothing more than a badly bundled heap of paper, parts of which would occasionally surface on the Internet. No one could have anticipated the small but devoted following this terrifying story would soon command. Starting with an odd assortment of marginalized youth -- musicians, tattoo artists, programmers, strippers, environmentalists, and adrenaline junkies -- the book eventually made its way into the hands of older generations, who not only found themselves in those strangely arranged pages but also discovered a way back into the lives of their estranged children. Now this astonishing novel is made available in book form, complete with the original colored words, vertical footnotes, and second and third appendices. The story remains unchanged, focusing on a young family that moves into a small home on Ash Tree Lane where they discover something is terribly wrong: their house is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside. Of course, neither Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Will Navidson nor his companion Karen Green was prepared to face the consequences of that impossibility, until the day their two little children wandered off and their voices eerily began to return another story -- of creature darkness, of an ever-growing abyss behind a closet door, and of that unholy growl which soon enough would tear through their walls and consume all their dreams.

On the trail a mile below Weavers Needle, we scrambled across a rock ledge that blocked our view of everything beyond. Seconds later we stared into the muzzles of five rifles aimed directly at us. The men standing in front of us looked out of place on this April dayin 1962. Their clothing and appearance would have been common a hundred years earlier. We were to later learn that this was the Burns Crew. This rough bunch of characters were convinced they were on the verge of solving the hundred-year-old mystery--the location of the legendary Lost Dutchman Mine. Legend has it that it was supposedly located somewhere in the rugged, deadly Superstition Mountains of Arizona.
