  • A special paperback edition with stenciled artwork on the edges of the New York Times bestseller--a chilling twist on the "cursed film" genre from the author of The Pallbearers Club and The Cabin at the End of the World.

    In June 1993, a group of young guerilla filmmakers spent four weeks making Horror Movie, a notorious, disturbing, art-house horror flick.

    The weird part? Only three of the film's scenes were ever released to the public, but Horror Movie has nevertheless grown a rabid fanbase. Three decades later, Hollywood is pushing for a big budget reboot.

    The man who played "The Thin Kid" is the only surviving cast member. He remembers all too well the secrets buried within the original screenplay, the bizarre events of the filming, and the dangerous crossed lines on set that resulted in tragedy. As memories flood back in, the boundaries between reality and film, past and present start to blur. But he's going to help remake the film, even if it means navigating a world of cynical producers, egomaniacal directors, and surreal fan conventions--demons of the past be damned.

    But at what cost?

    Horror Movie is an obsessive, psychologically chilling, and suspenseful feat of storytelling genius that builds inexorably to an unforgettable, mind-bending conclusion

  • Description text goes hereSPECIAL EDITION WITH STAINED EDGES, FULL-COLOR CHARACTER ART, AND MORE.

    Once upon a time, I was a prince.

    A single night with Megaera and I'm willing to do anything to save her from Hades, the man holding her captive, victim to his every whim. A bargain with the devil himself seems a small price to pay in order for Megaera to go free... Until I learn that she's exactly where she wants to be.

    She's Queen to Hades's King.

    And I'm the fool that walked right into their trap. The same fool who desires them both as much as I hate them. I can't resist Megaera's touch--or stop from being drawn to Hades's dark desires. By the time I realize just how deep a game he's playing, it may be too late...For all of us.

    For all tropes, tags, and CWs, please check the author's website.

    Rich bonus features include:

    • Stained edges

    • Beautiful full-color art insert

    • Gorgeous additional b&w interior art

    • Author annotations

    • Additional scenes

    • A spicy kink inventory

    • And more!

  • This new hardcover edition of the second book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Never After series has specially designed edges, an exclusive case design, and full-color art.

    She doesn't belong to him...she belongs to the crown.

    Prince Tristan Faasa was never destined for the throne. That was always his brother, Michael. The same brother responsible for both Tristan's tormented childhood and the scar that mars his face. When their father dies, Michael is set to assume the throne, and Tristan is set to steal it. The leader of a secret rebellion, Tristan will stop at nothing to end his brother's reign. But when Michael's new betrothed, Lady Sara Beatreaux arrives, Tristan finds himself in the middle of a new kind of war. The kind that begs the question of what's more important, the crown or the woman about to wear it.

    Sara has one plan. Marry the King and eradicate the Faasa line, even at the risk of her own peril. But she never expects the Scarred Prince. He's dangerous. Forbidden. And one of the men she's been sent to kill. But the line between hatred and passion has never seemed so thin, and as secrets come to light, Sara grows unsure of whom she can trust--torn between vengeance and the villain she was never supposed to love.

  • Star Wars takes on new life in a classic style. This retelling of the beloved story in the enduring meter of Shakespeare is sure to delight fans of the Bard and the Force both!

    Experience the first installment of Star Wars all over again, now with all the drama and prestige of Shakespearean theater! Stunning text lovingly and accurately rendered in the meter and style of the Bard himself includes reimagined dialogue from each character from the movie, stage directions, and plenty of Easter eggs, all alongside twenty gorgeous woodcut illustrations that put an Elizabethan twist on the iconic Star Wars characters.

  • This edition features beautiful, teal-stained edges and embellished cover effects. While supplies last!

    An utterly delightful and sexy second-chance romance between a black cat and golden retriever with Mazey Edding's signature sparkling voice!

    Eva Kitt never expected to be the host of Sausage Talk, interviewing B-list celebrities over lukewarm hot dogs, instead of pursuing the journalism career she dreamed of. But when Eva's impromptu public call out of her college ex goes viral, she's thrust into the spotlight. It doesn't help said ex is Rylie Cooper, a beloved social media personality that has built a platform on deconstructing toxic masculinity and teaching men how to be good partners.

    Forced to confront Rylie on a live episode of Sausage Talk, he offers Eva a deal: allow him to take her on a series of dates to make up for his toxic behavior, then debrief them on his channel to show he's changed. Eva refuses to play nice, but agrees to the scheme to advance her own career and continue defaming Rylie's good name. When these manufactured dates start to feel real, Eva has to wonder if the boy that broke her heart has become the man that might heal it.
