This is the book for everyone who loves modern Gothic and wants to know where the vampires, ghouls, haunted houses and zombies all began. It takes each element of the Gothic, from the settings of castles and forests to the werewolves and ghosts who infest them, and uses extracts from the original classics as illustrations and to encourage readers to go on and explore these wonderful works. It is an ideal primer for those studying the Gothic at school or college: but it is also to be read for the sheer enjoyment.

To complete the fun, the Guide is illustrated by award-winning graphic novelist Richard Sala. Enter if you dare...

In this captivating work part travelogue, part history, part memoir of a life-long affair with the northern lands and seas traveller and scholar Charles Moseley describes a haunting world, where the voices of the past are never quiet. From his account of the last days of the Viking settlements in Greenland to his own experiences on the melting glaciers of Spitsbergen, he reminds us how deceptive are human ideas of permanence, and how fragile are the systems of these starkly beautiful lands.

Quintember: The First Volume of the Misdemeanours of Dr Felix Culpepper

Major, Richard

A blackly comic tale set in a grisly, too pre-failed to fail English university, where the students invent a mascot: an imaginary student; a Photoshop Frankenstein, who grows monstrous as they empty into him all the worst of themselves. As the narrator Julia, a horrified University Registrar, looks on, this meta-student dominates social media, rises effortlessly to national power, and inflicts national destruction.

Coming to Terms: An Intimate Portrait of the University and City of Cambridge

Moseley, Charles

When there are high crimes to be covered up, mysteries to be wrapped up in enigmas, or a murderer to be liquidated, literally, there is only one man in England who can be trusted with the task: Felix Culpepper, tutor in Classics at St Wygfortis College, Cambridge, and assassin-at-large for the British Establishment. From the eerie deserts of New Mexico to the high-rolling hotels of the Adriatic, Culpepper moves with consummate ease and an unexpected penchant for guns, drugs and esoteric methods of murder; all to save himself from the drudgery of cramming Latin into the privileged yet empty skulls of the dregs of Britain's aristocracy. With an intellectual vanity that rivals Holmes, more self-esteem than Bond and a blood-steeped amorality that out-Ripleys Hannibal Lector, Culpepper is the ideal hero for our debased days. And only in his student, side-kick (and pending Nemesis) Margot ffontaines, does he meet his match. Parricide follows Quintember.
