Howard Philips Lovecraft (1890-1937) er amerikansk horrorlitteraturs største navn mellem Edgar Allan Poe og Stephen King. I sin levetid opnåede han kun meget begrænset udbredelse, men senere har hans særegne, intense skrivestil og ofte kontroversielle verdensbillede fået kolossal indflydelse inden for både litteratur, fra Stephen King til Michel Houellebecq, film, tegneserier, rollespil, computerspil og musik, fra Metallica til Deadmau5. Dette bind fortsætter udgivelsen af Lovecrafts samlede fortællinger og fører forfatterskabet frem fra dets definerende midterperiode, der er udgivet i bindet Cthulhu kalder. Fortællinger 1926-1928, til forfatterskabets – og Lovecrafts livs – afslutning. I disse noveller udbygger Lovecraft sine mytologier med sin store interesse for naturvidenskab og aktuelle begivenheder, så der knyttes tråde både bagud til for længst forsvundne civilisationer befolket med afklarede væsner fra det ydre rum og frem til nutidige monstrøsiteter, der befolker de fiktive regioner i New England omkring den sagnomspundne Miskatonic-flod og byen Arkham.

Ny stor roman af Maren Uthaug.

Designed to take fans of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings deeper into the myths and legends of Middle-earth The Silmarillion is an account of the Elder Days, of the First Age of Tolkien's world. It is the ancient drama to which the characters in The Lord of the Rings look back, and in whose events some of them such as Elrond and Galadriel took part. The tales of The Silmarillion are set in an age when Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwelt in Middle-Earth, and the High Elves made war upon him for the recovery of the Silmarils, the jewels containing the pure light of Valinor. Included in the book are several shorter works. The Ainulindale is a myth of the Creation and in the Valaquenta the nature and powers of each of the gods is described. The Akallabeth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom of Numenor at the end of the Second Age and Of the Rings of Power tells of the great events at the end of the Third Age, as narrated in The Lord of the Rings. This pivotal work features the revised, corrected text and includes, by way of an introduction, a fascinating letter written by Tolkien in 1951 in which he gives a full explanation of how he conceived the early Ages of Middle-earth.

En kold vinterdag bliver en seksårig dreng afleveret til kongen af De Seks Hertugdømmers folk med en besked om, at nu er det på tide, at drengens far, kronprins Chivalry, selv tager sig af ham. Drengen får hurtigt kaldenavnet Fitz og bliver sat til at hjælpe til i kongens stalde ved hoffet i Bukkenborg. En bastard kan dog udgøre en potentiel trussel for rigets sikkerhed, så derfor beslutter den gamle kong Shrewd at købe drengens troskab og tage ham under sine vinger. Fitz installeres nu i selve inderborgen, hvor han i det skjulte oplæres til kongelig snigmorder og lærer at bruge Farseer-slægtens særlige evner. Inden længe bliver han også sendt på hemmelige missioner for kongen, som har brug for Fitz i kampen mod Rødskibspiraterne, der truer riget.
