    WEIRD FICTION TITLES

     

    The Shadow Out of Time (ISBN 978191059396/ 120pp) 

    Miskatonic University, Arkham, 1908. Professor Nathaniel Peaslee collapses in front of a class of students, only coming to his senses five years later. Horrified to discover that his body has been far from inactive during the intervening period—and plagued by unsettling and outlandish nightmares—Peaslee attempts to piece together the truth behind the missing years of his life. A chilling journey through time, space, and the recesses of the mind finding terrifying form in this adaptation to one of his final tales. With a foreword by Jeff Lemire.

     

    The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath (ISBN 9781910593974/ 144pp)

    Obsessed with revisiting the sunset city of his dreams, Randolph Carter leaves the humdrum confines of reality behind, traveling into a vivid dreamworld where anything is possible. But while Carter draws closer to his goal—the mysterious Kadath, home to the gods themselves—another force, dark and brooding, is watching with plans of its own. An epic fantasy mixing adventure, peril, and wonder in equal parts, The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath explores themes of memory and forbidden knowledge. With a foreword by Jeff Lemire.

     

    The Case of Charles Dexter Ward (ISBN: 9781910593950/120pp)

    Providence, Rhode Island, 1928. A dangerous inmate disappears from a private hospital for the insane, his method of escape baffling the authorities. Only the patient’s final visitor, family physician Dr. Marinus Bicknell Willett—himself a piece of the puzzle—holds the key to unlocking The Case of Charles Dexter Ward. A macabre mixture of historical investigation, grave-robbing, and bone-chilling revelation. With a foreword by Jeff Lemire.

     

    The King in Yellow (ISBN: 9781910593943/ 144pp)

    The King in Yellow: a play that brings madness to all who read it. Irresistible and insidious, it lures the reader with its innocence and dooms them with its corruption. In a series of interlinked stories, Robert W. Chambers’ classic work of weird fiction shows the creeping spread of the play’s macabre touch. A deft and unsettling adaptation that breathes life into this influential masterpiece. With a foreword by Dan Abnett.
