Ether
by Ben EhrenreichPraise for Ben Ehrenreich's first novel The Suitors:"Smart and postmodern in a puckish, Calvino-like sense. . . . Ehrenreich writes with an ease and pure line-by-line skill that's rare."-The New York Times Book Review"Ehrenreich blends Tom Robbins' sly humor with Steve Erickson's bubbling sense of the subconscious and Voltaire's irreverent twists of plot."-Los Angeles Times Book Review"Ehrenreich shows the stirrings of an original talent."-Publishers Weekly"Brilliant, and at the same time moving. It's a relief to know that literature exists yet."-Juan GoytisoloA bearded man in a badly soiled suit known only as The Stranger wanders an apocalyptic landscape on the fringes of a dying metropolis, looking for a way to "get back on top." Thwarted and rejected at every turn by old friends and strangers alike-even by the author of this novel, whom he visits repeatedly in unsuccessful attempts to determine his own narrative-his impotence and rage are expressed in acts of seemingly senseless violence. The various characters he encounters on his journey-a pack of sadistic boys, skinheads who beat him senseless, a deaf-mute woman who tries to heal him, a sidewalk preacher, and a deranged man who identifies him as The One-avoid or abuse him, or attempt to follow him.Entertaining, disturbing, and wildly intelligent, written with sinister humor and great compassion, Ether reflects on the possibilities and consequences of forgiveness, the problems of faith, and the trials of creation.Ben Ehrenreich is an award-winning journalist and fiction writer. Ether is his second novel.

Eu era Jack, O Estripador
by Michael Bray José Carcagnolo NetoQuando Jack, o Estripador, aterrorizou Londres em 1888, ele desencadearia um mistério quando desaparecesse e sua série de assassinatos violentos e terríveis terminasse com a mesma rapidez com que começavam, deixando um dos mais antigos crimes não resolvidos do mundo em seu rastro. Agora, em 1907, o biógrafo Charles Hapgood está prestes a ser visitado por um homem com assombrosas alegações de que ele era o famoso Estripador e deseja contar sua história antes de sua futura morte. Cético a princípio, Hapgood concorda em ouvir sua história, apenas para logo mostrar provas indiscutíveis de que seu visitante fala a verdade e é quem ele diz ser. Enquanto Hapgood escuta o conto do homem, ele é atraído para um mundo de dor, crueldade, terror e tristeza ao descobrir como uma criança inocente se transformou no maior monstro vivo que o mundo já viu. À medida que a história se desenrola, ele começa a temer por sua própria segurança, como o homem conhecido como Jack The Ripper conta sua história em suas próprias palavras, um conto que vai muito além do tempo conhecido de seus horríveis crimes e atinge novas profundezas de terror e depravação que Hapgood nunca poderia ter imaginado.
Eu Sei Porque as Águas do Mar Têm Gosto de Sal: Contos do Mar de Steve Vernon # 3
by Steve VernonEsta é uma história ambientada em uma Okinawa devastada pela guerra, nos últimos dias da Campanha do Pacífico, durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial. É contada do ponto de vista de um jovem piloto kamikaze, prestes a chocar o seu avião caça contra a lateral de um navio de guerra norte-americano. É uma história sobre culpa, solidão, lembranças e sobre o gosto do mar. Ah, e também tem um monstro do mar! Imagino que eu tenha que mencionar isso... O QUE ESTÃO DIZENDO SOBRE STEVE VERNON "O gênero precisa de sangue novo, e Steve Vernon é uma transfusão e tanto! " –Edward Lee, autor de FLESH GOTHIC e CITY INFERNAL " Se Harlan Ellis, Richard Matheson e Robert Bloch fizessem um ménage à trois em uma banheira quente, e então uma equipe de cientistas viesse, filtrasse toda a água e misturasse o DNA restante em um tubo de ensaio, o resultado do experimento genético provavelmente viria a tornar-se Steve Vernon." - Bookgasm " Steve Vernon é uma espécie de anomalia no mundo da literatura de terror. Ele é uma das novas vozes mais revigorantes no gênero, embora sua carreira já se estenda por vinte anos. Escrevendo com rara arrogância e confiança, Steve Vernon pode levar seus leitores por uma gama inteira de emoções que vão desde o medo e a repulsa escancarados à compaixão e aos risos." - Cemetery Dance " Armado com um senso de humor bizarro, uma enorme dose de originalidade, um dom para assumir riscos e um forte domínio sobre caracterização – Steve tem o jeito, com certeza." - Dark Discoveries " Steve Vernon nasceu para escrever. Ele é coisa séria, e temos sorte por tê-lo." - Richard Chizmar Minha mãe também acha que eu sou bem legal.
