Writers As The Protagonists – Short Stories

"The short story in Literature is a few pages of beginning, middle and end peopled by characters who quickly draw themselves into its arc from the minds of their authors. How these authors, including Herman Melville, Fyodor Dostoyevsky, M R James and Violet Hunt imagine their characters journeys is, of course, illuminating, thought-provoking and classic literature.1 - Stories with The Writer as Protagonist - An Introduction2 - Bobok by Fyodor Dostoyevsky3 - The Devil In Manuscript by Nathaniel Hawthorne4 - Cohen of Trinity by Amy Levy5 - The Art of BookMaking by Washington Irving6 - The Fiddler by Herman Melville7 - The Eyes by Edith Wharton8 - Count Magnus by M R James9 - His Wife's Deceased Sister by Frank R Stockton10 - The House of Cobwebs by George Gissing11 - Room For One by Frederick Cowles12 - Couching at the Door by D K Broster13 - The Vampire Maid by Hume Nisbet14 - Truth is Not Sober by Winifred Holtby15 - The Plutonian Fire by O Henry16 - A Sucessful Rehearsal by Anthony Hope17 - The Memoir by Violet Hunt18 - Warning Whispers by A M Burrage"

Essence of Evil – Tales of Monsters, Demons, Devils, Vampires & More

"Pure Evil is one of our greatest fears. No appeals to reason, no pleas of mercy or forgiveness will have the slightest impact on the mind of the oppressor. These Evil entities, surely we can’t name them as beings, include all sorts of monsters, demons, devils, vampires and other assorted ghouls that care little about the fate of you or I.1 - Essence of Evil - Tales of Monsters, Demons, Devils, Vampires & more2 - The Call of Cthulhu - Part 1 by H P Lovecraft3 - The Call of Cthulhu - Part 2 by H P Lovecraft4 - A Pastoral Horror by Arthur Conan Doyle5 - The Devil In Manuscript by Nathaniel Hawthorne6 - Lucifer by Anatole France7 - The Devil's Wager by William Makepeace Thackeray8 - The Devil and Tom Walker by Washington Irving9 - From the Memoirs of Satan by Wilhelm Hauff10 - The Devil's Mother-in-Law by Fernan Caballeron11 - The Devils Horse by Ion Luca Caragiale12 - The Demon Pope by Richard Garnett13 - Canon Alberic's Scrap-Book by M R James14 - Belphagor by Niccolo Machiavelli15 - Mark of the Beast by Rudyard Kipling16 - A Story of a Weir-Wolf by Catherine Crowe17 - The She-Wolf by Saki18 - The Vampyre.

The Church - A Short Story Collection

"Faith is a wonderful thing. Whether its faith in each other or to a God, Gods, or whatever entity you believe in, it brings a familiar comfort and sustenance to heart, soul and mental well-being. Whilst faith can be practiced anywhere religious faith is usually at a church or temple. The stories in this volume are centered both in houses of worship and with those with a strong association to its calling. Of course, short story authors have a determined belief in their undoubted talents to make us look at this subject from different angles. In this volume they take us on literary journeys that are revealing and challenging yet always entertaining. 1 - The Church - A Short Story Collection - An Introduction 2 - The Altar of the Dead - Part 1 by Henry James 3 - The Altar of the Dead - Part 2 by Henry James 4 - A Fragment of Stained Glass by D H Lawrence 5 - Neccesity.

Frederick Cowles - A Short Story Collection

"Frederick Ignatius Cowles was born in 1900 in Cambridge, England.This unfamiliar name is one of the gems of English supernatural fiction as well as several other works of travelogues, history, folklore, and children's books. When his supernatural short stories, and some are very short indeed, were first published they were compared to the works of M R James and EF Benson, yet unlike those two authors he fell, unfairly, into obscurity.In all he wrote perhaps 60 short stories with weird and supernatural themes.Frederick Cowles died in 1948 although some accounts offer that it was 1949."

Ghost in a Coach - A Short Story Collection

"Men and women have many wild fears that are very unlikely to ever come true except perhaps in a dream that lurches into a nightmare that seems so real that it must be real.Perhaps being a fellow traveller in a coach or a train carriage and realising, whether in a sudden jolt or a slowly rising uneasy feeling of horror, that your fellow occupants might not actually be from this world, but more probably from the next, would be such a situation.We delighted to now put you in such good company! Indeed Amelia Edwards, E F Benson, Violet Hunt, Rudyard Kipling and the incisive talents of many others would definitely like you along for the ride."

Amelia B. Edwards, Frederick Cowles (Author), David Shaw-Parker, Richard Mitchley (Narrator)
