Something strange is happening in the country town of Hollow—a mysterious syndrome that seems to strike only the young. The town is quarantined, schools are closed and fences go up. Guards patrol new enforced borders, but amongst the townsfolk denial runs deep. Part science-fiction, part satire, Falling Petals is a darkly humorous fable about the consequences of a culture of disposable youth and it also blasts the urban/rural fissure open. Views: 13

Ex-soldier Lenora is determined to escape an alien slave colony no matter what the cost. Her disobedience angers her male alien overseers, who are trying to breed humans so they can intermarry with them. Lenora, and willful women like her, are sent to the Bride Games. If they win they will be granted their freedom. If they lose they must accept marriage to an alien nobleman. Alien Viceroy Lysanter wants no part of these hideous games. Their lack of females caused them to wage a brutal war with Earth that ended horribly for both races. He knows the humans despise his kind, and that females are particularly fearful. When the games organizer offers him a slave named Lenora as a bride he’s initially repulsed by the idea. Then he realizes that her military programming has left her with an irrational fear of his kind that causes her to take dangerous risks. Lenora has suffered in her desperation to escape them. Perhaps, if he can convince her to accept him, he can give her a better life? Lysanter becomes determined to court Lenora throughout the games with the goal of persuading her to forfeit. A riveting erotic one-shot novella by the author of Alien’s Bride! Views: 11
Considered by many critics to be one of Brian Keene’s
best works, The Girl on the Glider has been long out of print-until
now!
The year is 2009, and the world’s financial and
publishing sectors are in chaos. In the midst of this disarray, a burned-out
horror writer finds himself haunted by a variety of ghosts, both real and
metaphorical. And as the ghosts increase their attacks, his struggle to make a
living quickly becomes a fight to hold on to his family-and his very
sanity.
This meta-fictional take on the traditional,
old-fashioned ghost story is a deft mix of M. R. James and Hunter S. Thompson,
and makes for one of Keene’s most personal and powerful novellas.
