Darkness Divided
by John ShirleyDarkness can be divided. --It can be split like an atom, and in it can be found a destructive fire--or light. Light, too, can be folded into darkness. The stories brought to light in John Shirley's stunning DARKNESS DIVIDED -- most of them never before collected, some written especially for this book--are presented in two sections: one featuring stories set in the present, or the past, the other set in myriad futures. These dark tales of new noir, science fiction, fantasy, and crime, demonstrate humankind's evolution from where we were and where we are, to where we have yet to be. Shadows are a current--a continuity--streaming from "Til Now" into "And Soon." John Shirley incisively explores human nature and the pitch-black streak within the soul that each of us fears. The twenty-two excursions collected here divide the darkness with scalpel-like precision, daring you to peek inside. In these divided shadows, in the shift of diffuse light and occlusion, things move--things that aren't there. There you will find your own id, the dark side of your own imagination. Read these words, and be forever changed by what you find.

Das Albtraum-Spiel: Ein LitRPG Roman (Das Albtraum-Spiel #1)
by Raymond JohnsonZweites Kapitel Charakterverstümmelung Ramzan hielt den Atem an und wartete mit resignierter Angst. Er fühlte sich, als wäre er in den elektrischen Stuhl geschnallt und wartete darauf, dass der Schalter umgelegt wurde. Jede Sekunde jetzt und 2.200 Volt würden durch seinen Körper gehen. "Was für ein köstlicher Gedanke", kam eine Stimme aus der Dunkelheit. Es war fast männlich, aber leicht feminin, aromatisiert durch einen amerikanischen Akzent. Nicht russisch, das war gut. Die Amerikaner waren schwach und voller Sympathie. "Ja, das ist eine wunderbare Idee. Lass uns das tun!" Er schwor, er hörte gedämpft, als ob die Person, die das Gefühl ausdrückte, Handschuhe trug. Ramzans Körper wurde von einem Stromstoß geplagt, der durch jeden Nerv schoss. Sein Kiefer ballte sich so stark, dass er sich durch die Zunge biss. Er wollte schreien, aber er konnte seinen Mund nicht öffnen. Der Schmerz stürzte über ihn wie eine Flutwelle brennenden Öls. Durch all das kam eine geschlechtsneutrale Stimme. Sie nehmen 10 Gesundheitspunkte von elektrischen Schäden. Sie nehmen 10 Gesundheitspunkte von elektrischen Schäden. Sie nehmen 10 Gesundheitspunkte von elektrischen Schäden. Sie nehmen 10 Gesundheitspunkte von elektrischen Schäden. Sie nehmen 5 Gesundheitspunkte von Bissschäden. Sie bluten. Du verlierst jede Sekunde zwei Gesundheitspunkte, bis die Blutung aufhört. Sie haben 1.952 von 2.000 verbleibenden Gesundheitspunkten. Der Schaden durch die Elektrizität und das Bluten dauerte eine Ewigkeit an, bis die Stimme aufhörte, den Schaden, den er erlitt, detailliert zu beschreiben, und sagte: Sie haben 3 von 2.000 verbleibenden Gesundheitspunkten.
