RED

Evil takes on many forms. This is something Rachael Daniels, a lowly care worker, is about to find out . . . personally. Because something is roaming the streets of the city where she lives, something with a taste for human blood: sweet, red blood. Something that can be anything it wants to be. Soon Rachael will learn that not even friendly faces can be trusted. But, as she makes her way across that city at night on an errand of mercy, she discovers this terrifying creature will definitely have none for her.


Blood RED

In the aftermath of the events in RED, the hunt is back on—but who is the hunter and who is the prey? As a team of trackers—fuelled by revenge—attempt to take down the monster that has been causing havoc in its wake, they are forced to seek help from an unexpected source. And after the resultant struggles and battles, things will never be the same ever again.

With an introduction from bestselling author Alison Littlewood (Path of Needles, The Unquiet House), and cover art and design by Dave McKean (Cages, MirrorMask).


‘Kane is adept at putting flesh on the bones: all the more horrifying, my dear, when he strips it off again.’—From the introduction by Alison Littlewood

‘Paul Kane is a first rate storyteller, never failing to marry his insights into the world and its anguish with the pleasures of phrases eloquently turned.’—Clive Barker, bestselling author of The Hellbound Heart, Mister B. Gone and The Scarlet Gospels

‘Kane does an incredible job of combining horror and humor into one tasty morsel.’ —Cemetery Dance on RED

Child of Two Worlds (Star Trek: The Original Series)

Greg Cox

Science Fiction & Fantasy / Horror / Novelizations

An all-new Star Trek novel from New York Times bestselling author Greg Cox, taking place in the blockbuster Original Series era! The year is 2255, not long after the events of the Original Series episode “The Cage.” A young Spock is science officer on the U.S.S. Enterprise, under the command of Captain Christopher Pike, when an outbreak of deadly Rigelian fever threatens the crew. Reviewing the Starfleet medical database, Dr. Phillip Boyce comes up with a highly experimental and untested new treatment that might save the crew. Just one problem: it requires a rare mineral substance, ryetalyn, which is not easily obtained…except on a remote alien colony near the Klingon border. But borders are somewhat blurry in this part of galaxy. Pike will need to tread carefully in order to avoid provoking an armed conflict with the Klingons—or starting an all-out war. ™, ®, & © 2015 CBS Studios, Inc.
