A deliciously witty and dark collection of tales in which the villains win. This is a superb book brought to us by those who gave us 'The Mutant Files', 'Warrior Princesses' and 'White House Horrors'.
This must buy book includes such tales as:
ALL THINGS BEING RELATIVE
The scribe Cornelius Dickcissel is hired to write the life story of the infamous Dark Queen.
This is a hilarious tale that skewers all the fairy tale conventions.
THE SPECTER OF TULLYFANE ABBEY
Just how did Professor Moriarty become Sherlock Holmes arch nemesis? This tale told in true
Conan Doyle fashion tells us how and spins a gripping mystery to boot.
DOUBTING THOMAS
Thomas knows something no-one else on Earth does: he knows that Santa Claus is an evil bastard.
But how will he prove it? A darkly satisfying tale for all haters of the holiday season.
THE WHITEVIPER SCROLLS
How did a foot soldier become King? He tells us how in a tale that involves a noble woman of
no morals, treasure and a bevy of pissed off elves. An utterly hilarious tale that takes more
than one shot at 'Lord of the Rings'.
SOULS TO TAKE
A deeply disturbing tale about an all too probable future. Has to be read to be believed.
NINA
It has been arranged that Anil will marry Nina, but she's not the sort of girl you'd want to marry. Bad things happen to people Nina doesn't like and Nina doesn't want to be a wife. A dark tale.
HORROR SHOW
Simon is a washed up actor, famous for his starring role in a series of low budget gore movies. But his role has been taken from him to be given to a younger hipper actor and Simon is angry. So angry in fact that when the character he has portrayed for years comes to murderous life he doesn't mind a bit. Ask yourself - just who is the real monster in this delicious horror tale.
DEATH MAGE
Enter a world of necromancy and politics in this wonderfully dark and twisted tale that deserves a whole book devoted to its subject matter.
TO SPEAK WITH ANGELS
A saint enters hell to ask the devil a question. An interesting tale.
HEROES AND VILLIANS
Why is evil, evil and good, good? In this comic book inspired world arch super villain Komerdie and his archest arch enemy superhero Captain Chlorophyll ask themselves just that. A good story that shines new light on comic book staples.
Go buy this book.
