O knihe

Writers write because they want other people to know what they have discovered on their journeys. What they discover might be beautiful beyond comprehension, or terrifying beyond our most terrible nightmares. The Scarlet Petal: Beauty has no choice but to go with the Beast after a card game goes horribly wrong. She will find out a terrible truth about the castle to which she has come-a secret so monstrous that those who try to tell it vanish. The Devil's Pit: Three young explorers set out into the Amazon rainforest to make names for themselves; but the world will remember the horrors of the valley they journey to, and the monster that lives there-a monster the modern world long thought dead... A Victorian Drama: Marriage is never easy, especially when there are affairs, scandal, and a night of passion at a friend's ball into the bargain. But who knew that such a lovely night would erupt into a night of horror? Melt not in weeping while she lies sleeping: A forest of thorn has long guarded a secret, and those who enter never return to tell the tale. But a young man travelling in winter might have bitten off more than he can chew when he discovers a cottage at the centre of the forest and its welcoming occupants.
