- A Collection of Dark Tales
173,95 kr. The stories collected herein are not for the faint-hearted. Nineteen dark tales from the imagination of Andy Evans: "[some] are short, sharp jabs to the psyche, others are longer spirals of nightmarish descent". - WENDY KING Each story is unsettling. Nothing here is quite as it would seem. Some being so terrifying as to frequent your dreams and leave you floundering, longing for the relative sanctuary of the daylight hours. In 'Gravity' a man walks along the highway, compelled towards a specific place, haunted by his past and a growing sense of déjà-vu. 'Evolution of the Werewolf' flips the werewolf myth upon it's head. 'Hiija' is about two rival horror writers and the deadly woman who inspires them both. While 'We Who Dwell Behind The Veil' explores why you should never be mean to your little sister. And there are others waiting in the darkness, too.

158,95 kr. The following pages give an account of a twenty year search to uncover the mystery that had surrounded grandfather for the entirety of his life that he had spent living in the United Kingdom. All that was ever known of him were the basic facts that he was Serbian by nationality (although I was later to discover that he in fact lived in Bosnia) and that he was never to return to his native homeland again.The book is like that of a split personality, two sides that would never see the other until the final chapters were acknowledged, recorded and written together.It describes my own early recollections of the man and the time I would spend in his presence throughout childhood and teenage years until his death in 1988. The other persona tells of the other side that was left behind in Bosnia. The happiness, ever wandering, the horrors and finally, as the first one is uncovered, the understanding and joining together of both as finally one.The search would be a relentless task searching for a man that had no records of his existence prior to his displacement in 1946. Searching a country whose own bloodlust and carnage has seen whole generations of people and records of them disappear forever. A country whose varied people are so secretive in their own right and often hide their own pasts with a passion.
