Описание:
When, in 1940, Saul Prior receives a letter from Lady Caroline Degabaston to catalogue the library of Thool Abbey in Hertfordshire, he jumps at the chance. But he soon finds himself in a realm that seems cut off from the real world. In the cryptic fastnesses of the abbey, Prior is beset by bizarre dreams and seems incapable of leaving the place. Lady Caroline proves to be a baleful and mysterious presence, and Prior is mired in a landscape that mingles Gothic terror and surrealism.
The actual books that Prior is tasked with cataloguing are themselves a farrago of occultism, psychological aberration, and cosmic horror. And when other presences manifest themselves in and around the castle, Prior knows that he has stumbled into an adventure that is unlikely to end short of death or madness.
Mark Samuels has knitted together many of the themes that appear in his previous work into a grand synthesis of dread and awe. Impeccably written, with careful attention to historical detail and the portrayal of the strange characters he puts on stage, Witch-Cult Abbey is a triumph of supernatural terror.

Описание: Dared To Be Me is a reflection of a damaged soul, a darkened state of being, and the affects of rebellion due to pain. It expresses hope, through Jesus Christ. The problem is finding the way back to His marvelous light. It is a lifestyle captured through poetry, expressing feelings of despair, anger, bitterness, and loss. It attempts to reveal the importance of love, but beyond that the misery of disconnection. However, when God is revealed and salvation is granted, the reality becomes His will. Past experience of rebellion is replaced with joy and obedience. Recognition, at last, to live life God's way! Erica B. Samuels was born in Kingston, Jamaica. She moved with her mother and five siblings to the United States, at age five. She has acquired an Associates of Science Degree in Finance, as well as, a Bachelors of Science Degree in Business Communications. The author, also, served six years as a Human Resource Specialist in the United States Army Reserves. Erica's Poetry writing began, while scribbling on paper, unreadable words that she recited to her mother, when she was five years old. While learning about Jesus in Sunday School, at the age of seven, she aspired to be just like Him, to have a heart that loves everybody, regardless of their faults. Jesus became her idol. However, when her sister, Althea, passed away, anger and pain fueled her rebellion towards God. She began to live a lifestyle contrary to Him. After nineteen years of darkened devastations, Erica dedicated her life to Jesus, in 2006. She maintains a career in federal law enforcement. Her residence is in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.
Описание: The dramatic tale of the duchesse de Berry's quest to retake the French throne for the Bourbons-and her betrayal at the hands of one of her closest advisors. The year was 1832 and the French royal family was in exile, driven out by yet another revolution. From a drafty Scottish castle, the duchesse de Berry-the mother of the eleven-year-old heir to the throne-hatched a plot to restore the Bourbon dynasty. For months, she commanded a guerilla army and evaded capture by disguising herself as a man. But soon she was betrayed by her trusted advisor, Simon Deutz, the son of France's Chief Rabbi. The betrayal became a cause c l bre for Bourbon loyalists and ignited a firestorm of hate against France's Jews. By blaming an entire people for the actions of a single man, the duchess's supporters set the terms for the century of antisemitism that followed. Brimming with intrigue and lush detail, The Betrayal of the Duchess is the riveting story of a high-spirited woman, the charming but volatile young man who double-crossed her, and the birth of one of the modern world's most deadly forms of hatred.

Описание:
For the past two decades, British author Mark Samuels has written some of the most vibrant and challenging weird fiction of any contemporary writer. But his work--collected in such volumes as The White Hands and Other Weird Tales (2003), The Man Who Collected Machen (2010), and Written in Darkness (2014)--has by and large appeared in limited editions not widely distributed in the United States.
This volume features seventeen of Samuels's best weird stories. Several display his fascination with technology, advertising, and urban horror, as in "Apartment 205" and the title story. Other tales speak of the writing of weird fiction itself as a potentially hazardous and supernatural enterprise, as in "The White Hands" and "Vrolyck."
In several of his lengthier narratives--notably "The Gentleman from Mexico" and "The Crimson Fog"--Samuels draws upon H. P. Lovecraft's pseudomythology to venture into realms of cosmic horror. "The Black Mould" and "My World Has No Memories" are distinctively existential tales of undeniable potency.
Mark Samuels is one of the pioneering weird writers of today, and this selection makes plain why he has few rivals in the portrayal of the horrors that are unique to our troubled age.
Описание: A dark stage comedy about the contemporary American family, business, sexuality, race relations, psychiatry, and organized crime, Steven Samuels' "American Arcade; or, How To Shoot Yourself in the Face" concerns the Hamlet-like Harry Hunter, a young manufacturer of old-fashioned shooting gallery games struggling to sustain his beloved past, his family, and what remains of his sanity while the confounding present explodes in his face.
In the one crazy day on which this play takes place, Harry tries to maintain the failing American Arcade Company bequeathed him by his late father, who may or may not have been a suicide. Harry is literally haunted by his father, and the other people who plague his life--including his spendthrift mother, cold wife, distant daughter, lackluster assistant, and Freudian analyst, and an old family friend: a Mafia don who shows up unexpectedly--appear as often in Harry's fantasies as in what passes for his real life. Their concerns--mostly money and sex--combine with Harry's fears of war, environmental destruction, and the depersonalization of human interactions brought on by our overindulgence in the brave new world of screens, to drive him at least half mad as he strives to solve his problems and the mystery of his father's death.A strange cross, tonally, between family dramas such as "Death of a Salesman," Charles Ludlam's antic farces, and the black humor of Joe Orton, "American Arcade" constitutes its own genre, which Samuels calls "An Outrage." A huge part of the fun comes from a set dominated by a wall from which Harry's fantasy figures pop out, la Rowan and Martin's "Laugh-In". Like a Coney Island of the mind, "American Arcade" is one wild ride.

Описание: Since the end of the Ottoman Empire, Turkey has repeatedly attempted to assert its position as a central strategic nation in the formation of world geo-politics. Turkey`s Cold War shows for the first time how the country`s modern foreign policy, in particular during the Cold War, has been shaped by an aspiration to become part of the Western world.
Описание: Cryptocurrency in Matrimonial Finance examines the developing and specialist area of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology in the context of matrimonial finance proceedings in England and Wales. Cryptocurrencies are becoming increasingly mainstream and going forward there will be cases in which issues arise as to how such currencies should be valued or how they should be shared (if a straight division is not possible).
The work is split into two parts, the first half of the book provides a primer on cryptocurrency, blockchain etc, and the latter focuses on the role and impact of that type of asset in matrimonial finance litigation.
The work firstly considers the legal status of cryptocurrencies and the key participants in the cryptocurrency market. It analyses what cryptocurrencies are, how they are held by their owners, and what to do when they are identified in the course of matrimonial finance litigation.
The second part of the work summarises the key principles of English family finance and the operation of the family court. It provides a detailed analysis of cryptocurrencies as a specific type of matrimonial asset, before exploring familiar litigation scenarios such as applications for freezing and disclosure orders. It also addresses the valuation of crypto-assets and the instruction of forensic experts for tracing/asset recovery, as well as Anti-Money Laundering considerations for practitioners.
