In Ramsey Campbell's "The Kind Folk, "fairies are real . . . and they're coming for you. Luke Arnold is a successful stage comedian who, with his partner Sophie Drew, is about to have their first child. Their life seems ideal and Luke feels that true happiness is finally within his grasp. This wasn't always the case. Growing up in a loving but dysfunctional family, Luke was a lonely little boy who never felt that he belonged. While his parents adored him, the whole family knew that due to a mix-up at the hospital, Luke wasn't their biological child. His parents did the best they could to make the lad feel special. But it was his beloved uncle Terence who Luke felt most close to, a man who enchanted (and frightened) the lad with tales of the "Other"--eldritch beings, hedge folks, and other fables of Celtic myth. When Terence dies in a freak accident, Luke suddenly begins to learn how little he really knew his uncle. How serious was Terence about the magic in his tales? Why did he travel so widely by himself after Luke was born, and what was he looking for? Soon Luke will have to confront forces that may be older than the world in order to save his unborn child., In Ramsey Campbell's The Kind Folk, fairies are real . . . and they're coming for you.

When Dr. Parti had his near-death experience on the operating table, he first watched his own operation from the ceilingeven recalling a joke told by his doctors during his surgery.With devastating candor, he memorializes a short-lived but important movement and the men who made it happen.And with the mists come murder When a teenage boy dies in Detective Sergeant Danny Ahern’s arms, Danny finds himself pursuing his own grey man, a killer who becomes more elusive the closer Danny gets to the truth.Manga! The World of Japanese Comics and translator of Ghost in the Shell., Dark Horse proudly presents one of the crown jewels of manga - Astro Boy!Through it all, Phil Robertson has lived his life as a "called" man.Providential does justice to the diasporic reality of places being 'there but not there,' including of course America, the poet's current home.Then there are the stories behind his "enablers" who gambled with billions entrusted to them by their clients-without doing any due diligence.He rescued the dog, whom he lovingly named Bruno, and, in the process, turned his own life around.And when he hears a mythic, as-yet-unperformed song he starts to piece together the puzzle of Peter's role in Cross's past.The Who in the World?As he shows, it's really the things you love that make you who you are and so Graham tells his story from his Irish childhood to the present day, describing just what and who he loved - and sometimes lost - as a young boy, and his new loves and obsessions - big and small - as he's grown older.This is Weissman's first full-color book, which is hard to imagine for an artist so renowned for his color sense.Wishing she had photos to illustrate her stories, she drew them.
