by Thomas Ligotti Often cited as the most curious and remarkable figure in horror since H.P. Lovecraft, Thomas Ligotti's work is noted by critics for its display of an exceptionally grotesque imagination and accomplished prose style. The stories collected in Teatro Grottesco feature tormented individuals who play out their doom in various odd little towns, as well as in dark sectors frequented by sinister and often blackly comical eccentrics.

by Michael Palin Michael Palin has kept a diary since the late 1960s, when he was newly married and beginning to make a name for himself as a TV scriptwriter. This volume of his diaries reveals how Python emerged and triumphed, how he, John Cleese, Graham Chapman, the two Terrys - Jones and Gilliam - and Eric Idle came together and changed the face of British comedy. Here too is his growing family, his home in a north London Victorian terrace, which grows as he buys the house next door and then a second at the bottom of the garden. Meanwhile Monty Python refuses to go away: the hugely successful movies (Holy Grail and The Life of Brian) that follow the series, the at-times extraordinary goings-on of the many powerful personalities who coalesced to form the Python team, the fight to prevent an American TV network from bleeping out the best jokes on U.S. transmission, and much more - all this makes for funny and riveting reading.

by Lisa Rogak One of the most prolific and popular authors of the last thirty years, Stephen King has become part of pop culture history. In this unauthorized biography, Lisa Rogak reveals the troubled background and life-long fears that inspire one of the twentieth century's most influential authors. Abandoned by his father, King's mother raised him in rural Maine in a house without plumbing. Though he excelled in college, he graduated already married and a father. Afterwards he wrote ceaselessly at night, churning out stories at an incredible rate, while sweating out his days at an industrial laundry. When success came, it happened in a flash. Soon his substance abuse risked destroying his career and, worse, his life. But he survived, kept his family intact, and continued writing at a level of originality few authors could hope to achieve. Haunted Heart chronicles King's Horatio Alger-esque story and shows the character of a man who, despite his dark and disturbing work, has become revered by his countless fans as an All-American voice more akin to Mark Twain than H.P. Lovecraft. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

A serio-comic semi-autobiographical thriller by Star Trek icon Brent Spiner, inspired by true events from his time on the show. Brent Spiner pens an explosive and hilarious novel, Fan Fiction, a personal look at the slightly askew view of the relationship between a celebrity and his fans. If the Coen Brothers were to make a Star Trek movie, involving the complexity of fan obsession and sci-fi, this noir comedy might just be the one. Set in 1991, just as Star Trek: The Next Generation has rocketed the cast to global fame, the young and impressionable actor, Brent Spiner receives a mysterious package and a series of disturbing letters, that take him on a terrifying and bizarre journey that enlists Paramount Security, the LAPD, and even the FBI in putting a stop to the danger that has his life and career hanging in the balance. Featuring a cast of characters from Patrick Stewart to Levar Burton to Trek creator Gene Roddenberry, to some completely imagined, this is the fictional autobiography that takes readers into the life of Brent Spiner, and tells an amazing tale about the trappings of celebrity and the fear he has carried with him his entire life. Fan Fiction is a zany love letter to a world in which we all participate: the phenomenon of 'Fandom.' (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

In the Walking Dead universe, there is no greater villain than The Governor. The despot who runs the walled-off town of Woodbury, he has his own sick sense of justice: whether it's forcing prisoners to battle zombies in an arena for the townspeople's amusement, or chopping off the appendages of those who cross him. Now, for the first time, fans of The Walking Dead will discover how The Governor became the man he is, and what drove him to such extremes. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror
