The Bottom of the RingDanny Miller wrapped his hands in the same tape he'd been wrapping for a year. The tape was yellow and sticky and held together three different fights already. It was falling apart. So was everything else. The underground arena was in the basement of a closed-down warehouse somewhere in the hills outside Charleston. West Virginia. The kind of place where the nearest grocery store is twenty...0 Yorumlar 0 hisse senetleri 2 Views 0 önizlemePlease log in to like, share and comment!

V-04: The Bloodroot CovenantThe root grew in a place that had no name on any map of Madison County, Mississippi. It grew in the swamp that bordered the Meriwether property to the east, a stretch of water and cypress and standing mud that had been called locally Devil's Blood since before Silas could remember, though he had heard the name from men old enough to have heard it from their fathers. The root itself was thick,...0 Yorumlar 0 hisse senetleri 3 Views 0 önizleme

Three Mutations From HumanThe first thing Kaelen Marsh lost was the ability to drown. He had not chosen this. The gill-mesh had been a necessity, not an enhancement — the waters of the new Thames had risen twenty-three meters since the Collapse, and the lower twelve floors of every standing structure in London were submerged in a broth of salt, sewage, and the slow dissolution of the city's bones. Anyone who lived below...0 Yorumlar 0 hisse senetleri 6 Views 0 önizleme

Echoes of BabelACT I: THE WHISPERING WALLS (Rising Action) Oliver Vance moved into the Babel Apartments on a Tuesday in October because the rent was cheap and the building was beautiful and he was not in the habit of questioning anything that offered him shelter from the empty space where his fiancée used to be. The building stood on the Upper East Side, a masterpiece of Art Deco architecture that had been...0 Yorumlar 0 hisse senetleri 7 Views 0 önizleme

The Carefree SummerThe Carefree SummerThe baby was crying at Penn Station, which is to say she was performing a one-woman concert of protest at maximum volume, and Daisy was trying to soothe her with a rattle that looked like a flower and failed miserably, and the people around her were staring with expressions that ranged from polite pity to open hostility, and Daisy was thinking: I am thirty-two years old, I...0 Yorumlar 0 hisse senetleri 4 Views 0 önizleme

THE STARS OF EVELYN MARCHETTIThe funeral was over on a Thursday in November. Chicago was cold in a way that felt deliberate—as if the city itself wanted to remind us that winter was coming and nothing in your life mattered to it. I stood at the graveside in a black suit that had been my father's first and now was mine by necessity, and I watched them lower him into the ground. My father was dead. He had been dead for...0 Yorumlar 0 hisse senetleri 2 Views 0 önizleme

The Luminous Grave of Dame Erin WorthI write these words by the flickering of a gas lamp that I myself invented, though no man at the Royal Society would ever credit my hands with such knowledge. The fog presses against the windowpane like a living thing — thick, yellow, and insistent. It was always like this in London, even on nights when the stars might have been visible if the world had permitted women to look upward without...0 Yorumlar 0 hisse senetleri 8 Views 0 önizleme

THE LAST LIGHT OF NEW CARTHAGEI found Grandfather's diary in the cellar on a Tuesday in October, 1872. The house was cold—the coal fire had been banked too early, as it always is when one lives alone—and the smell of damp stone and forgotten things rose to meet me as I descended the narrow stairs with a candle in my hand. There, behind a stack of water-stained furniture covers, in a tin box whose lock had rusted solid, was...0 Yorumlar 0 hisse senetleri 6 Views 0 önizleme

Sample 02: The Alchemist's Burden(Based on Variation V002: Victorian Spiritual Crisis / Mid-Victorian England) The study of Arthur Penhaligon was a sanctuary of leather-bound contradictions. To the outside world, he was a pillar of the Royal Society, a man of empirical rigor and unwavering faith in the Newtonian clockwork of the universe. But inside the dim light of his oil lamps, Arthur fought a war against the silence of...0 Yorumlar 0 hisse senetleri 11 Views 0 önizleme

The Silver SolaceThe Chateau de Valois was a skeletal remain of a palace, perched on a cliff in the French Alps where the wind howled like a wounded beast. For centuries, the Valois family had been collectors of the impossible, filling their vaulted cellars with clockwork automata, forbidden grimoires, and artifacts that defied the laws of nature. Julian, the last descendant of this decaying line, spent his...0 Yorumlar 0 hisse senetleri 12 Views 0 önizleme

The Promised LandThe café sat between a bookstore and a tailor on the Left Bank, and it was the cheapest place in the neighborhood. Jack knew this because he had checked every café on the Left Bank when he arrived in Paris in the autumn of 1923. He was twenty-four, a veteran of the Great War, and he had learned to check everything twice. The old man sat at the same table every day. He ordered the cheapest...0 Yorumlar 0 hisse senetleri 8 Views 0 önizleme

The Auditor of WhitechapelACT ONE The fog rolled through Whitechapel like a living thing, thick and yellow as old brandy, and Arthur Crawford pulled his collar tighter against it as he stepped over the threshold of the tenement on Dorset Street. The woman who had hired him—Lady Cecilia Windsor, or so the card on the mantelpiece read—had been specific: find the three, understand them, and report back. Nothing more. The...0 Yorumlar 0 hisse senetleri 2 Views 0 önizleme
