Glimpses: The Best Short Stories of Rick Hautala
http://www.darkregions.com/template/..._med_200px.jpg
Glimpses: The Best Short Stories of Rick Hautala is now available on the DarkRegions.com website in two premium hardcover editions. It includes twenty-four stories from the Lifetime Achievement Award winning best-selling author of the million-copy seller Night Stone, Rick Hautala. The book features an original wrap-around cover and eight original interior illustrations by award-winning artist Glenn Chadbourne. Click here to read more about Glimpses: The Best Short Stories of Rick Hautala http://www.darkregions.com/template/...over_thumb.jpg http://www.darkregions.com/template/...illo_thumb.jpg “Rick Hautala’s writing shines with dedication, hard-earned craft, and devotion.” —Peter Straub One of 2012’s HWA Lifetime Achievement Award Winners, Rick Hautala has a writing career that spans more than three decades. From Moondeath, his first novel published in 1980, to the republication of his best-selling novel The White Room (DRP, 2012) and his forthcoming “Little Brothers” novella Indian Summer (CD Publications, 2012), his novels and short stories have entertained millions of readers around the world. Now comes Glimpses, a career-spanning “best of” collection that brings together twenty-four stories, including eight from each of Rick’s critically-acclaimed collections Bedbugs and Occasional Demons, and eight previously uncollected stories. And Glimpses delivers what it promises—quick glimpses into the deepest shadows of our lives, around unfamiliar corners of streets we think we know, and down the darkest alleys of strange cities where readers will have to face their worst fears and their most unnerving nightmares. Of course, Glimpses wouldn’t be a Rick Hautala collection if it didn’t included gorgeous original artwork—a wraparound cover and eight new illustrations—from award-winning artist Glenn Chadbourne. So whether it’s in a haunted schoolhouse or an abandoned lighthouse, an iron bridge that spans a fast-moving river or a World War I battlefield, prepare yourself because you never know what you may catch a glimpse of … and by then, it may already be too late. “Rick Hautala is a modern master of horror. He breathtakingly captures the things we fear, and love. With love, humanity, and a chilling eye, Hautala makes our hearts race.” —Matthew J. Costello, author of Vacation and Home “Rick Hautala proves each time out that he understands and respects the inner workings of the traditional horror novel as well or better than anyone writing. He brings his own brand of ice and fire and blood to his work and he never forgets to entertain the reader.” —Joe R. Lansdale, author of the Hap and Leonard books and Edge of Dark Water “Writes about the dark side of life as if he has lived there for centuries.” —John Coyne “One of the most consistently reliable horror novelists ... [Rick Hautala] is adept at creating a chilly, unnerving atmosphere,particularly with his unconventional ghost stories.” —Don D’Ammassa, Science Fiction Chronice “A master of contemporary horror and suspense.” —T. Liam McDonald, Cemetery Dance About the Author http://www.darkregions.com/template/...rick_200px.jpg Under his own name, Rick Hautala has written around thirty novels, including the million-copy best seller Nightstone, as well as Winter Wake, The Mountain King, and Little Brothers. He has previously published two short story collections: Bedbugs and Occasional Demons. He has had over sixty short stories published in a variety of national and international anthologies and magazines. Writing as A. J. Matthews, his novels include the bestsellers The White Room, Looking Glass, Follow, and Unbroken. His forthcoming books from Cemetery Dance Publications include Indian Summer, a new “Little Brothers” novella, as well as two novels, Chills and Waiting. He recently delivered The Star Road, a science fiction novel co-written with Matthew Costello, to Brendan Deneen at Thomas Dunne/St. Martin’s due to be published in 2013. With Mark Steensland, he has written several screenplays, included the multiple award-winning short film Peekers, based on the short story by Kealan Patrick Burke; The Ugly File, based on the short story by Ed Gorman; and Lovecraft’s Pillow, inspired by a suggestion from Stephen King. Born and raised in Rockport, Massachusetts, Rick is a graduate of the University of Maine in Orono with a Master of Arts in English Literature. He lives in southern Maine with author Holly Newstein. Combined, they have five sons, all of whom have grown up and (mostly) moved out, leaving the house frighteningly quiet. In 2012, he was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Horror Writers’ Association. Most of his books and stories—and all of them, soon—will be available in all major e-book formats from a variety of e-publishers.

Notes from the Shadow City by Bruce Boston & Gary Crawford
http://www.darkregions.com/template/..._med_200px.jpg
Dark Regions Press is excited to announce a new poetry collection by Grand Master, four-time Bram Stoker award winning poet Bruce Boston and Bram Stoker award nominated poet Gary William Crawford. Gary William Crawford's "The Shadow City" collection was nominated for a Bram Stoker Award. The book features art and eight interior images by Bruce Boston. Click here to read more about Notes from the Shadow City by Bruce Boston and Gary William Crawford “In Notes from the Shadow City, Crawford and Boston distill a bleak dystopian vision. Alone or together, and utilizing poetry, prose, and photographic images, they have crafted a guidebook, a Baedeker to the same outliers as chronicled by Dostoyevsky, Kafka, and Orwell, where shadows are more real than the gnomons that cast them, and the predominant colors come from the stripped-down underside of the rainbow.” —Robert Borski, author of Blood Wallah and Other Poems “Like grim guides of the underworld, Boston and Crawford lead you into a terrifying landscape of tragedy and tyranny. At times morbid, despairing, inspiring, and hauntingly beautiful, the Shadow City etches itself into your mind with lonely, tormented characters and their tragic fates.” —Anders Monsen, Editor, Prometheus “Boston’s and Crawford’s voices meld beautifully to create dark music. Notes from the Shadow City will echo in your nightmares.” —Linda D. Addison, Bram-Stoker-Award-winning author of Being Full of Light, Insubstantial “To say that reading Notes from the Shadow City is a delight might be misleading; to say that it is unsettling, disconcerting, provocative, and remarkable is to scratch the surface of the shadows and begin to reveal the genius beneath.” —from the introduction by Michael R. Collings, author of The House beyond the Hill About the Authors http://www.darkregions.com/template/...uce_boston.jpg Bruce Boston lives in Ocala, Florida, once known as the City of Trees, with his wife, writer-artist Marge Simon, and the ghosts of two cats. He is the author of fifty books and chapbooks, including the novels The Guardener’s Tale and Stained Glass Rain. His poetry and fiction have appeared in hundreds of publications, including Asimov’s SF Magazine, Amazing Stories, Weird Tales, Strange Horizons, Realms of Fantasy, Year’s Best Fantasy and Horror, and The Nebula Awards Showcase. One of the leading genre poets for more than a quarter century, Boston has won the Bram Stoker Award for Poetry, the Asimov’s Readers Award for Poetry, and the Rhysling Award of the Science Fiction Poetry Association, each a record number of times. His fiction has received a Pushcart Prize and been a finalist for the Bram Stoker Novel Award and the Micro Award for flash fiction.

New Haunted House Novel in the vein of The Shining by Stephen King
http://www.darkregions.com/template/..._med_200px.jpg
From the Bram Stoker Award winning mass-distributed author of Dead City, Mutated, Quarantine, Flesh Eaters and more comes his first supernatural haunted house novel in two premium signed collectible hardcover formats limited to 26 and 150 copies worldwide. Crooked House is a novel of subtle and encroaching terror in the vein of The Shining by Stephen King. Own specialty collector editions from one of the top-growing names in horror. Don't wait until it's too late, join author Joe McKinney in the frightening exploration of the Crooked House. Click here to read more about Crooked House by Joe McKinney In this republican country, amid the fluctuating waves of our social life, somebody is always at the drowning point. Those words were true when Nathaniel Hawthorne wrote them in 1851, and they were true in 1933, when a fire burned half of Crook House to the ground, taking James Crook’s wife and two sons with it. A disgraced bootlegger and former pro baseball player, James Crook returned from prison to find his house, and his life, a pile of cinders. Broken and insane, he rebuilt Crook House, putting his pain and loneliness into every timber. But Hawthorne’s words are still true today, and nobody knows that better than Dr. Robert Bell, who has just moved into Crook House as part of his hiring package from a small Texas college. He soon discovers that Crook House is more than just a new beginning for himself and Sarah and their daughter Angela. For the Bell family, Crook House is a place where the past still lives, and its horrors waiting for the next drowning man. With Crooked House, Joe McKinney brings you a chilling novel in the vein of The Shining by Stephen King, a haunted house tale that will stay with you long after the final page is turned. About the Authors http://www.darkregions.com/template/...e-mckinney.jpg Joe McKinney is a San Antonio based author of several mass-distributed horror, crime and science fiction novels. His works include the three part Dead World series, the science fiction disaster tale, Quarantined, which was nominated for the Horror Writers Association’s Bram Stoker Award for superior achievement in a novel, 2009, and the real crime novel, Dodging Bullets. In 2012, McKinney's Flesh Eaters won the Bram Stoker Award for Best Novel of 2011.

The Walls of the Castle by Tom Piccirilli -Help Tom in his fight against brain cancer
http://www.darkregions.com/template/..._med_300px.jpg
From four-time winner of the Bram Stoker Award, two-time winner of the International Thriller Writers Award and finalist for the 2009 Edgar Allan Poe Award Tom Piccirilli comes an intense and visceral psychological thriller novella, the first title in the Black Labyrinth imprint illustrated by renowned Argentinian Gothic artist Santiago Caruso. 20% of all hardcover proceeds and 100% of ebook proceeds will be donated directly to author Tom Piccirilli in his fight against brain cancer. Click here to read more about The Walls of the Castle by Tom Piccirilli The Walls of the Castle Description In the labyrinthian maze of endless corridors, annexes, and wings of the enormous medical complex known as The Castle prowls a grief-stricken man determined to redeem himself and bring justice for those victims incapable of doing it for themselves. During the four months that his son lay dying, ex-con Kasteel lost his job, his wife, and nearly his mind. He became a fixture at the Castle, a phantom prowling the halls in the deep night, a shadow of his former self until he faded from sight and was forgotten altogether. Now, without any life to return to, he takes it upon himself to become the Castle's guardian. He lives off the grid hiding among the hundreds of miles of twisting passages, rooms, offices, and underground parking structures. Despair, confusion, and terror are the natural state and trade of any hospital: Not only must the patients endure disease and infirmity, but others are victims of physical and sexual abuse from the outside world or from cruel security guards. The Castle was originally a colonial Dutch settlement: a village that grew into a town which grew into a city and at last became a hospital. Kasteel has lost his very identity to this place, taking for himself the original Dutch name for "Castle." Kasteel sleeps in empty operating theaters, sneaks food from the cafeteria, hacks into computers, and is privy to both staff and patient files. Using his skills as a burglar he tracks down the attackers, the deceivers, and the killers. In the psychiatric wing's day rooms and gardens long-suffering patient Hedgewick is Kasteel's only friend. Hedgewick sees his father's ghost and claims to fight in a gladiatorial arena while the hospital guards bet on the winners. Kasteel and Hedge often meet in the Fool's Tower, a ten-story high steeple once used to quarantine yellow fever victims a century ago, overlooking acres of gardens. A place where family members go to pray for their loved ones, and the distraught often commit suicide. But a new name is now whispered in the Castle: Abaddon, the ancient name for the angel of death. A brain-damaged woman has visions and speaks only to Kasteel. Abaddon is a killer, a man lost to the Castle like Kasteel himself, wandering the corridors searching out victims. Even as Abaddon hunts the innocent, Kasteel hunts Abaddon, eager for a final showdown that may at last set him free. An atmospheric yet action-packed, mature psychological thriller that is part examination into the bonds of family and part treatise on the nature of identity, THE WALLS OF THE CASTLE explores the deepest areas of what makes us who we are. With a noir sensibility and complexity of character, the novella is a hybrid psychological thriller that's part suspense tale, part family saga, and part literate mystery. The Walls of the Castle by Tom Piccirilli contains four interior illustrations by renowned Gothic artist Santiago Caruso. This is one of them: http://www.darkregions.com/template/...lo_4_400px.jpg Blurbs "Tom Piccirilli straddles genres with the boldness of the best writers today, blending suspense and crime fiction into tight, brutal masterpieces." –JAMES ROLLINS, New York Times bestselling author of The Judas Strain "(A Choir of Ill Children is) A wonderfully wacked, disorienting, fully creepy book…The poetic nature of the prose and seriousness of intent carried the day in every scene." —Dean Koontz "Tom Piccirilli writes like a crazed banshee. I love his work."—KEN BRUEN "Tom Piccirilli is a powerful, hard-hitting, fiercely original writer of suspense. I highly recommend him."—DAVID MORRELL, New York Times bestselling author of Creepers "Blackest noir, the most minimal kind of minimalism, and at the same time deeply emotional: this is not easy to do. I loved The Cold Spot."—PETER ABRAHAMS "Tom Piccirilli is at the forefront of the new breed of crime writers, welding his sense of history to a modern sensibility, creating a strong new voice."—Max Allan Collins, author of ROAD TO PERDITION "Tom Piccirilli may write with the muscle of a 1950s paperback pulp master, but the mood and menace are totally modern….Wherever he's headed, count me in."—DUANE SWIERCZYNSKI "If you like action-packed suspense with serious bite Tom Piccirilli is your man." –JASON STARR "A beautiful and perversely funny sort of crime novel: a hard-boiled hallucination....Headstone City gives you the distinctive shiver…all good writing—provides: the certainty that the writer's own ghosts are in it."—New York Times Book Review (Summer Reading issue) Click here to find out how you can help Tom Piccirilli in his fight against brain cancer About the Author http://www.darkregions.com/template/...piccirilli.jpg Tom Piccirilli is an American novelist and short story writer.

Joshi. One of the heirs apparent to early-twentieth-century American author H. P. Lovecraft, Campbell's horror stories are often set in contemporary Merseyside, England, his own hometown, and involve quite ordinary characters. His unsettling, dreamlike prose, however, transforms his work into very effective horror fiction.

Among his novels are The Face That Must Die, Incarnate, Midnight Sun, The Count of Eleven, Silent Children, The Darkest Part of the Woods, The Overnight, Secret Story, The Grin of the Dark, Thieving Fear, Creatures of the Pool, The Seven Days of Cain, Ghosts Know and The Kind Folk. Forthcoming are The Last Revelation of Gla’aki (a novella) and Bad Thoughts. His collections include Waking Nightmares, Alone with the Horrors, Ghosts and Grisly Things, Told by the Dead and Just Behind You, and his non-fiction is collected as Ramsey Campbell, Probably. His novels The Nameless and Pact of the Fathers have been filmed in Spain. His regular columns appear in Prism, Dead Reckonings and Video Watchdog.

Dead Clown Barbecue by Jeff Strand
http://www.darkregions.com/template/..._med_400px.jpg
From the author of Pressure, Dweller and A Bad Day for Voodoo comes a new short story collection featuring seven never-before-printed tales and original cover artwork by Alex McVey. The stories within this collection range from hilarious to downright disturbing, proving that Jeff Strand is still a master at what he's known for: a delicious blend of the humorous and the horrific. Strand fans will take delight in the seven new stories first printed in Dead Clown Barbecue, including "Pett Semmuteary" "Dummy" "True Hero" "Fangboy and the Troll" "Stop Stabbing Me" "Pregnancy Test" and "Push the Button." Click here to read more about Dead Clown Barbecue by Jeff Strand Description A man who finds a severed nose on a plate on his dining room table. A bell that can summon Satan (maybe). Casual Fridays at work that get out of control. A cheery outlook on the post-apocalyptic landscape. The final thoughts of a doomed skydiver. A girl punished by having to share a bed with her grandmother’s corpse. Revenge via baking a tarantula into a cake. A shocking look at where those awful computer-generated book covers come from. And the lost tale of Fangboy. These are only a few of the demented stories in DEAD CLOWN BARBECUE, a collection of thirty gleefully macabre tales, seven of which were written just for this collection. There’s even a brand new one about a ventriloquist dummy. Those things creep you out, right? You’ll laugh. You’ll scream. Okay...you probably won’t actually scream, unless you already had issues before you started reading, but you might cringe and get a little spooked. “No author working today comes close to Jeff Strand’s perfect mixture of comedy and terror.” - Cemetery Dance http://www.darkregions.com/template/..._clown_bbq.jpg Live Chat Event On Monday, December 17th 2012 at 8:00 PM PST Dark Regions Press is hosting a life chat event with Jeff Strand, author of Pressure, Dweller, Wolf Hunt and the new book Dead Clown Barbecue. Free to attend, and all who attend will receive three stories from the collection, while three lucky question-askers will win signed copies of Dead Clown Barbecue! To attend the event, simply visit DarkRegions.com/events on Monday, December 17th at 8:00 PM PST. Resources Press Kit (4.1 MB) Press Release (PDF, 300kb) Press Release (HTML) Animated Banner (89 kb) About the Author http://jeffstrand.files.wordpress.co...dpi180x270.jpg "Jeff Strand is a funny, deeply disturbed individual."—Jack Ketchum, author of Off Season and The Girl Next Door Jeff Strand's bio used to mention his cat, but every author mentions a cat in their bio, so he's decided to quit doing it. Fight the power. He's been writing ever since he was old enough to throw screaming fits in crowded supermarkets, though the quality of his work from that era is questionable. "How to Rescue a Dead Princess" is his silliest book. If you're looking for something less silly, although not exactly high literature, you may want to try his Andrew Mayhem series: "Graverobbers Wanted (No Experience Necessary)," "Single White Psychopath Seeks Same," and "Casket For Sale (Only Used Once)." Also available is his obligatory 'giant ants attack the world' novel, "Mandibles." Cemetery Dance magazine said that "No author working today comes close to Jeff Strand's perfect mixture of comedy and terror." They weren't talking about "How to Rescue a Dead Princess." He checks his e-mail every forty-six seconds, and receiving e-mail from his readers makes him positively giddy. It's almost a little creepy. Write him at your own risk at [email protected].

Dark Regions Press proudly presents Luminous Worlds by Rhysling Award winning sci-fi poet David C. Kopaska-Merkel. Click here to read more about Luminous Worlds by David C. Kopaska-Merkel Description We can only write what we know, whether that comes from communicating in broken French and broken English with a Parisian nurse, or staring in horror at the human effects of a geological calamity. Here are twenty years worth of dark poetry, representing a dark world, the very one we live in. These poems were written at home, at work, in the air, shipboard in the middle of the Indian Ocean, confined to a hospital bed in a foreign land, in other words, all the usual places. Influenced by Lovecraft, Zelazny, and Algernon Blackwood, among others, Kopaska-Merkel enlists his imagination and scientific background in service to poetic expressions of the wonder, horror, and magic that permeate our world. Advance praise for Luminous Worlds “Linked by themes of cosmic isolation, ruin, dead cities, and mysterious women, these poems proceed by their own sure dream logic. Kopaska-Merkel’s deep understanding of science blends strangely but effectively with the surreal to create convincing narratives of impossible experience.” – Ann K. Schwader, Rhysling Award winner, author of Twisted in Dream and Wild Hunt of the Stars “Over the last 25 years, David C. Kopaska-Merkel’s Dreams and Nightmares has been at the heart of speculative poetry movement, publishing some of the very best speculative poetry anywhere – in these pages, you’ll see that he’s written some of it, as well. David has been a flame at the heart of a movement; herein, find the artistic core of things, and the vision behind a now-venerable publication. Damn, but the man can write!” – W. Gregory Stewart, Nebula Nominee and multiple Rhysling Award winner “The stark wind of a cautionary tale dips through the ruined cities and skewed alien love songs of Luminous Worlds. These are cohesive literate subtle explorations loaded with kinetics. ‘Ghost Lakes’ haunts with geologic power. An entire Japanese horror movie is encapsulated in ‘Tsunami Child.’ Kopaska-Merkel's formidable voice becomes a force to be reckoned with.” – Robert Frazier, SFPA Grandmaster Poet, author of Phantom Navigation About the Author http://www.sfpoetry.com/ra/photos/06/06Kopaska-M.jpg David C. Kopaska-Merkel describes rocks for the State of Alabama, and publishes Dreams and Nightmares, a magazine of SF and fantasy poetry. More than 1000 of his poems and stories have been published since the 70s. In 2006 a collaboration with Kendall Evans won the Rhysling Award of the Science Fiction Poetry Association. Flash fiction can be found at http://www.dailycabal.com. David lives with an artist and furry layabouts in a centuried farmhouse with a yellow tin roof. David was born in Virginia, but has lived where the dentist is king as long as anywhere.

http://www.darkregions.com/template/...book_300px.png
Enoch Coffin is a proud inhabitant of Massachusetts, an artist following in the footsteps of local legend Richard Upton Pickman. Coffin is an artist with a singular quest: to capture in paint, or ink, or clay -- however he might -- sights that no mortal has ever portrayed in art before...and lived to exhibit. His quest will take him throughout actual New England locations, and that other New England of H. P. Lovecraft, where his models will be doomed souls, ravening ghouls, and entities from beyond the veil. Individually acclaimed for their weird fiction, in this collection of short stories authors W. H. Pugmire and Jeffrey Thomas collaborate to paint the portrait of a character every bit as fascinating and unique as the subjects of his artistic encounters. With haunting illustrations on the front and back cover by renowned illustrator Santiago Caruso and interior illustrations accompanying every story by illustrator Clint Leduc, Encounters with Enoch Coffin is anticipated to be one of the best-selling Dark Regions Press titles of 2013. Don't miss our live chat event with authors W.H. Pugmire and Jeffrey Thomas on Tuesday, February 19th at 3:00PM PST (6:00PM EST) at: http://www.darkregions.com/events/ Table of Contents Ye Unkempt Thing Matter of Truth and Death Beneath Arkham Spectral Evidence They Smell of Thunder Mystic Articulation Every Exquisite Thing Impossible Color Ecstasy in Aberration Shadow Puppets Fearless Symmetry Unto the Child of Woman Praise for W.H. Pugmire "The prose-poet of the horror/fantasy field; he may be the best prose-poet we have...perhaps the leading Lovecraftian author writing today." - S. T. Joshi "An important figure in the fields of modern horror and the weird." - Laird Barron "Stylistically he owes as much to Oscar Wilde and Henry James as to HPL and Poe, creating a truly unholy fusion that defies academic boundaries between ‘mainstream’ and ‘genre’ fiction." - Editor and scholar Scott Connors Praise for Jeffrey Thomas "In time he will, in this reviewer’s opinion, be listed alongside King, Barker, Koontz, and McCammon." - Brian Keene "Jeffrey Thomas’ imagination is as twisted as it is relentless." - F. Paul Wilson "With brutal elegance and chilling subtlety, Thomas pulls his readers into his dark visions immediately from every opening line." - Paul Di Filippo Launching for preorder on Tuesday, February 19th at: http://www.darkregions.com/books/enc...jeffrey-thomas Videos YouTube trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7K0CKbvw6s4 Editions http://www.darkregions.com/template/..._hardcover.jpg http://www.darkregions.com/template/..._hardcover.jpg Book Details and Specifications Authors: W.H Pugmire and Jeffrey Thomas Front & Back Cover Artist: Santiago Caruso Interior Artist: Clint Leduc Editor: Joe Morey ISBN-13: 978-1-62641-000-8 ISBN-10: 1-62641-000-3 Page count: 270 Story count: 12 Interior illustrations: 12 Size: 6"x9" Publication date: 02/19/2013 Deluxe Hardcover pricing: $99 USD Limited Hardcover pricing: $45 USD Trade Paperback pricing: $17.95 USD Ebook pricing: $3.99 USD About the Authors Wilum Hopfrog Pugmire has been writing Lovecraftian weird fiction since he was a young girl in the 1970s. His first American collection was published by Jeffrey Thomas, through his Necropolitan Press, in 1997. Pugmire's books include The Tangled Muse, Some Unknown Gulf of Night, The Strange Dark One, Uncommon Places, The Fungal Stain, and Gathered Dust and Others. In April of this year Arcane Wisdom Press will publish a new collection, Bohemians of Sesqua Valley. Wilum is currently writing his first novel, inspired by Derleth's The Lurker at the Threshold, and he will be working on an Enoch Coffin novel with Jeff in some dim future aeon. Jeffrey Thomas is the author of such novels as Deadstock, Blue War, Letters from Hades, and The Fall of Hades, and such short story collections as Punktown, Nocturnal Emissions, Thirteen Specimens, and Unholy Dimensions. His stories have appeared in the anthologies The Year’s Best Fantasy and Horror, The Year’s Best Horror Stories, Leviathan 3, The Thackery T. Lambshead Pocket Guide to Eccentric & Discredited Diseases, and The Solaris Book of New Science Fiction. Forthcoming from Miskatonic River Press is a role-playing game based upon Thomas’ universe of Punktown. Thomas is also an artist, and lives in Massachusetts. About the Artists Santiago Caruso was born in 1982, in Quilmes, Argentina. He is a symbolist and surreal artist, with an avant-garde concept but rooted in the nineteenth century´s decadentism. Dedicated to the fantastique, metaphysical horror and poetry, he had illustrated books for Libros del Zorro Rojo, Dark Regions Press, Ex Occidente Press, Tordesilhas, Tartarus Press, Random House Mondadori, Planeta and Penguin. His work stands out both for the vigor of its poetry as well as for its technique. Member of the Beinart Surreal Art Collective since 2010, the artwork of Caruso is well represented in galleries and museums of Buenos Aires, United States, United Kingdom, Mexico and Spain.

Thanks Chris, slightly concerned about DRP's heavy recent shift toward e-formats. Is business all right or is this just a sign of the times?

I wouldn't call it a heavy shift towards e-formats, we're just actually releasing ebooks now. We're still doing our limited hardcovers and trade paperbacks. We launched Dark Regions Digital which will contain most of our titles in digital format across all major ebook platforms.

He had no idea how large the creature was, but it must be colossal, and yet there was something skeletal, wasted, in its aspect. It rested on all four weirdly-bent, bony limbs, its emaciated body the same color as the rock upon which it was perched; a grayish-green, as if it were a chameleon that had changed its hue to blend in. The only other color was a white cloth or gauze wrapped around its hairless head, completely concealing its face. But as it called out, the depression of its elongated open mouth could be seen through the material that bound and blinded it. Encounters with Enoch Coffin by W.H.

Glimpses: The Best Short Stories of Rick Hautala has been discounted 25% off retail price for a limited time: http://www.darkregions.com/books/gli...f-rick-hautala The 150 Signed and Numbered Limited Hardcover edition is still available and is signed by Rick Hautala, bound in black leatherette, features eight original interior illustrations by artist Glenn Chadbourne, colored book ribbon and is stamped in hot foil with the book title and author name on the spine of the book. Description One of 2012’s HWA Lifetime Achievement Award Winners, Rick Hautala has a writing career that spans more than three decades. From Moondeath, his first novel published in 1980, to the republication of his best-selling novel The White Room (DRP, 2012) and his forthcoming “Little Brothers” novella Indian Summer (CD Publications, 2012), his novels and short stories have entertained millions of readers around the world. Now comes Glimpses, a career-spanning “best of” collection that brings together twenty-four stories, including eight from each of Rick’s critically-acclaimed collections Bedbugs and Occasional Demons, and eight previously uncollected stories. And Glimpses delivers what it promises—quick glimpses into the deepest shadows of our lives, around unfamiliar corners of streets we think we know, and down the darkest alleys of strange cities where readers will have to face their worst fears and their most unnerving nightmares. Of course, Glimpses wouldn’t be a Rick Hautala collection if it didn’t included gorgeous original artwork—a wraparound cover and eight new illustrations—from award-winning artist Glenn Chadbourne. So whether it’s in a haunted schoolhouse or an abandoned lighthouse, an iron bridge that spans a fast-moving river or a World War I battlefield, prepare yourself because you never know what you may catch a glimpse of … and by then, it may already be too late. |
http://www.darkregions.com/template/...oxes_600px.jpg
Glimpses: The Best Short Stories of Rick Hautala is now in stock in signed and limited hardcover editions. Only 5x signed hardcover editions (as of writing this) remain for customer purchase: http://www.darkregions.com/books/gli...f-rick-hautala Rick Hautala passed away just a couple weeks ago. Glimpses is a collection of some of the best short fiction the author ever wrote, and it also features eight interior illustrations and wrap-around color cover artwork by artist Glenn Chadbourne. To our knowledge, Glimpses is the last hardcover book that author Rick Hautala ever signed. Thank you to all of our readers who have ordered the book so far and please keep supporting Rick's fiction! |
Heard Rick Hautala was sick but didn't know he passed away. Big blow for DRP and horror readers...
