But now, after decades of secrecy, the truth of this covert and eldritch intrusion has now been exposed to the light of day. In an epic spanning oceans, continents, and dimensions, the personal accounts of those who have come face to face with the unimaginable are now released for your reading pleasure.

ShaDaa: Facets

Once every 10,000 years comes The Sha'Daa, a two-day stretch of time when evil is permitted to cross the cosmic, dimensional barriers of reality, and attack the Earth. Michael H. Hanson's shared-world, dark-fantasy anthology series is a thrilling collection of exciting and frightening tales, penned by a talented army of writers, many making their startling debuts in the fields of urban fantasy, horror, and science fiction. Stories run the gamut from true soul-shaking horror, to wry and ironic takes on the end of reality as we know it. Unlikely heroes in unusual locations around the globe battle not only for their own survival, but for all of humanity.

Welcome to the world of shadows, cloaked in perpetual starlight; its denizens are a mysterious and frightening breed. And sometimes, just sometimes, their eldritch whispers and murmurs can cross the boundaries of reality and enter our darkest dreams. Richard Groller and his troupe of dead and living poets pull back the veil in The Book of Night, revealing the terrifying denizens of the shadows. Eerie and hypnotic artwork by some of today’s most chilling artists illuminates the vivid imaginings of the poets. Apparitions—things seen and unseen at the edge of our vision, or embedded in the corners of our nightmares. Sweet Sorrow—the pain and poignancy of loss, love unrequited, visions from afar, the pangs of memory, or the last breaths of mortals. The Autumn People—denizens of the night welcome the Fall and its All Hallows promises. Through A Glass Darkly—peer through the gloom seeking the moment of revelation, and all becomes clear—or not. Come, the Night awaits... Authors-Living: <ul>

When The Night Owl Screams  by Michael H. Hanson  Visions of terror, abandonment, and rejection…nightmares populated by archetypes of death, mystery, and the supernatural. Join Michael on an eerie bus ride of the soul and brace yourself for each strange and macabre stop. When The Night Owl Screams offers up 105 hair-raising poems that worm their way through the fever dreams of your subconscious.   Remember…you were warned.   “This book is like a magical ticket to visit everything that has been, that touched and surrounded us, from yesterday’s vanilla smell to that of chopped alien almonds of lost days, stuck inside us. This is the secret of Michael’s book: his intimately varnished poems carry us back and forth in time and space...”   —Alessandro Manzetti, Bram Stoker Award Winning Poet

When The Night Owl Screams

Only fools fall in love, and hell is filled with fools. Our damned lovers include: Christopher Marlowe and Will Shakespeare, Napoleon and Wellington, Orpheus and Eurydice, Hatshepsut and Senenmut, Abelard and Heloise, Helen and Penelope, Saint Teresa and Satan's Reaper, Madge Kendall and the Elephant Man, and more . . . -- all of whom pay a hellish price for indulging their affections. Shakespeare said "To be wise and love exceeds man's might," and in Lovers in Hell, the damned in hell exceed all bounds as they search for their true loves, punish the perfidious, and avoid getting caught up in Satan's snares. In ten stories of misery and madness, hell's most loveless seek to slake the thirst that can never be quenched, and find true love amid the lies of ages.

A HOLIDAY STORY We'd put out a nice book: Alternative Holidays. It had a fancy cover. The stories a perfect fit. So I was sitting there. Basking in success. And a story skitters across the floor. And then another, and another... And then, a slight sobbing sound. Then there came a most tremulous voice. "We want a book cover too." I reached down and picked up one of the stories. It settled in and started to purr. Then I picked up another, and another. They were so good. It was like the Island of Misfit Toys. Perfectly good stories that just had trouble fitting in. So I gave them a cover, nothing fancy. And now, they just need a Reader to appreciate them. YOU, can be that Reader.
