MAVERICK: I might have been a crappy excuse for a big brother in the past, but now I’m making up for lost time… And time isn’t the only thing that’s lost. So is my sister, Astrid. So, I do what any good brother would do—I go after her. Concealing my true identity, I attend Blood Rose Academy as a professor of potions. And along for the ride is my new wife, Taliyah. Not only am I hoping we can find Astrid, but I’m really hoping we find her alive. ASTRID: Even though I definitely have a thing for vampires, that doesn’t mean I wanted to become one… And it definitely didn’t ...

Something sinister’s afoot in Windy Ridge... When my mole-rat boss (and I do mean that literal like) goes missing, I’m pretty sure something wicked this way already came. Because Dorcas isn’t the type to miss a shift at the diner, let alone missing three danged days! So, when Sheriff Dean and I go looking for her, and we find her trailer all topsy-turvy, the writing is pretty much on the wall. Dorcas has been mole-rat napped! Not only that, but the singular clue left in the pile that used to be her trailer is a stone arm—one that’s as animated as Dr. Frankenstein’s creature. ...

I’m on yet another mission deeper into the Underground City. More specifically, I’ll be traveling to the dreaded City of Dis, where heretics and sinners remain imprisoned in their crypts, burning for all eternity....

Things in Windy Ridge are never calm, but they seem to just be getting worse. Like they say, when it rains, it pours. When kids in town start disappearing during a couple of football games, I can’t tell if whatever’s come for them did so by air or underground. That’s the raining part. And what about the pouring part? Well… Alton’s still trying to make a ‘relationship’ with me, Dean’s in all kinds of a bad mood, Sicily and Mason keep making cow eyes at each other, And Karen freaking Dooley is still as much a thorn in my side as she ever was. I’m thinking it’s about time I...

The plot of the book is almost identical to the story presented in the first three sonnets of the Fungi from Yuggoth. In other words, the protagonist in a peculiar bookstore purchases a book of extraordinary and dangerous power for a paltry sum of money.

I think I've seen it all, but life continues to spring surprises. The latest shocker? I've just been crowned queen of the underworld. Yeah, me. I may possess a rare gift for reanimating the dead, but I don't know the first thing about governing disparate factions of supernatural creatures. I mean, I can barely maintain order in my own chaotic personal life, which is heading into a romantic tailspin.

When it rains, it pours in Windy Ridge… When my ex, Alton, unexpectedly arrives in Windy Ridge with arms full of roses, I know we’ve got us a problem. And not just because I’m not looking to start up anything romantic with him. It’s more like Alton is human, and he’s just witnessed a diner full of fog-created creatures. To say that man has just suffered the shock of his life is putting it real mild like. Things only go from bad to worse when one of the locals, a crow shifter named Georgia, winds up with an arrow in her throat. Now we’re faced with a whodunit. Before I know it, ...

HP Lovecraft was born in 1890 in Providence, Rhode Island. He was a prodigious but sickly youth. At 14, he contemplated suicide when his grandfather died, leaving him and his mother almost penniless. He began to write poetry and a series of literary spats in a newspaper brought him attention and the beginnings of a career. But until the last decade of his life, the works for which he is so well known did not arrive. That last decade was prolific, but with little income his life downgraded from one rented house to another.

When Sawyer learns what I am—a mermaid—he isn’t sure what to make of the fact. Worse, it seems distance is what he needs most. Even though things might be less than ideal between Sawyer and me, at least I still have a friend in Wendy. But, soon, even that relationship will see its own crisis when posters appear throughout town proclaiming I’m a criminal on the run. Although the rumors are a hoax, I feel the whole town is turning against me, Wendy included—and I can only wonder who’s to blame for the lies. Luckily for me, there’s a new man in my life named Marshall. Having just...

What’s the worst place in The Underground City? How about the Ninth Level, the Morgue? After I narrowly escape the clutches of Alaire, the Master of the Underground City, I find myself on the back of a winged Fury in the middle of the ninth circle, The Morgue, and I’m not sure where to go, what to do or… how to get down. Tallis has been left to his own defenses in the eighth level, The Asylum, and Bill is MIA. I have no idea how to find either one of them or where to even start.

What’s a girl to do when her body is possessed by the spirit of a crazy queen and her friends are prisoners? Playing captive to the Queen of the Underground City is no joy ride, let me tell you.

Throw in the fact that my only allies, Tallis and Bill, are chained up within the dungeon of Alaire’s castle… yeah, things just went from bad to worse.

Lorcan and I continue to attempt a spell that will return his vampire “kiss” and return me to the witch I once was, but the spell keeps failing.

It’s the calm before the storm… When my ex, Alton, arrived in Windy Ridge, I never thought he’d decide to stay. That was a big assumption on my part because now that Alton’s here, I can’t get him out of my business. And there’s a part of me that seems to be just fine with that. I don’t know what’s going on with this vampire physiology of mine, but it seems like I can’t keep my fangs retracted where Dean and Alton are concerned, and that’s gonna send me right into crazy territory. And what’s worse? The two of them are now working together—trying to build up some kind ...

The story takes place in the future, when people are colonizing other planets in the Solar System. A soldier from a unit stationed on Venus is sent to retrieve a crystal that holds strategic importance for humans but falls into a trap set by the native lizard-like people – a labyrinth with invisible walls. The original version of the story, written by the young Kenneth Sterling (based on the idea from Edmond Hamilton's story "The Monster-God of Mamurth"), was half as long. Lovecraft rewrote the work, preserving as many original elements as possible.
