Dead or Alive? Not a hard question, and pretty easy to figure out either way. Usually. Except I've somehow woken up in a place called Hell, and I'm not entirely sure I died first. I thought it was a practical joke. Until a warrior woman tried to kill me, and I rescued an elf and a succubus from slavers. Turns out, this Hell is being terrorized by an evil king, and he’s hell-bent on bringing all of Hell under his dominion. He also happens to control the portal back to our world, which I very much want to use.

Maybe this world full of jaw-droppingly beautiful women and martial arts magic is just some sort of delusion. Maybe this strong, capable body I’ve found myself in isn’t real. But if it is, then there’s a path that could lead me to everything I’ve ever desired. The training comes first. Then the tournament. After that… anything is possible. I just need to survive to experience it all.

Will is having one of those days. But not your average one of those days. It started badly and then went downhill with gusto. Now he’s going to summon a demon. You know, to get all murdery. Revenge. What could go wrong, right?

You get a silver fox, aliens, suspense, forced proximity, and a couple on the run from danger in Protecting Dakota, but you also get a glimpse of the next generation in Protecting Alabama’s Kids. And in Protecting Tex the resident computer genius faces his own demons in this thriller complete with our hero being kidnapped and his military friends from across Stoker’s expansive catalog having to band together to rescue him. Alpha males, military, Green berets, strong heroines, all come together to prove their loyalty to the man who has always had their backs.

So here we have all the strange and seemingly impossible dualities that make up real life——and pretty ugly it can be, as well as beautiful, hopeful, bleak, difficult, exhilarating. The sheer force of life that Gunn is able to load these stories up with is both testament to her unrivalled skill and an exercise in what she describes as 'reading and writing ugly', in order to pursue the deeper truths that lie at the heart of both the human imagination and human rationality.

This second collection harbors more stories of lovers, of family, of friends, of enemies. Tales of mothers and fathers who seal the fate of their children, of child stars who can tell you the how, the why, and the when of your fate, tales of those willing to gamble everything on their fate, and those whose fate whispers in the wires and sings on the wind. Even a tale of a strange and seductive hitchhiker who will cast a horrible fate on anyone foolish enough to give them a ride.

Even great detectives have their off days. The Case-Book of Holloway Holmes is a collection of short stories from The Adventures of Holloway Holmes.

In a quiet farmhouse, the ordinary folds into the unseen. A Jury of Her Peers turns a simple domestic scene into a mirror of justice, conscience, and the unspoken weight of women's lives. With spare, careful strokes, Susan Glaspell reveals how silence can testify and how understanding sometimes takes root where authority fails.

In this brief, haunting tale, Stephen Crane casts a quiet, unflinching gaze at innocence, cruelty, and the strange bargains we make in the name of love. Told in spare, evocative prose, A Dark Brown Dog is more than it appears — a fable with no moral, a friendship with no promise, a home with no safety.
