Cold Hand in Mine
by Robert AickmanThese eight stories draw the reader irresistibly into eight strange worlds-uncanny, enigmatic, unearthly. In each there is something chillingly wrong-a hint of diabolism or vampirism, of reincarnation or the living dead-all of which could be explained away as hallucination or hysteria. Or could it? The stories cover a wide variety of settings and situations. A young English girl falls into peaceful but oddly enervating love in a palazzo in Ravenna, a man traveling on business finds himself as night falls in an isolated, unnervingly Kafka-esque hotel, Prince Albrecht von Allendorf meets his mysterious end in a mountain lake in Bavaria. Robert Aickman's stories are the work of a master of the genre, subtle, written with consummate skill and command of detail. Their mystery lingers, tantalizes, never quite lets the reader go.
Cold Hillside
by Nancy Baker“Baker takes the fantasy genre and turns it on its ear . . . political and familial intrigue that fans of Game of Thrones have come to love.” —Examiner.com From the acclaimed author of The Night Inside and A Terrible Beauty comes a new novel about the price of safety and the cost of power . . . “With them, there are no happy endings.” In the remote city of Lushan, they know that the Fey are not fireside tales but a dangerous reality. Generations ago, the last remnants of a dying empire bargained with the Faerie Queen for a place of safety in the mountains and each year the ruler of Lushan must travel to the high plateau to pay the city’s tribute. When an unexpected misfortune means that the traditional price is not met, the Queen demands the services of Teresine, once a refugee slave and now advisor to the Sidiana. Teresine must navigate the treacherous politics of the Faerie Court, where the Queen’s will determines reality and mortals are merely pawns in an eternal struggle for power. Years later, another young woman faces an unexpected decision that forces her to discover the truth of what happened to Teresine in the Faerie Court, a truth that could threaten everything she loves. “Baker writes scenes of extreme beauty and extreme horror and I can’t tell you how well the cover captures the feeling of the novel . . . If you love fantasy, you should really pick up Cold Hillside.” —The Mad Reviewer “Baker eases us into a lovely, culturally rich, but sometimes harsh world.” —ReadingTrance
