    Dark Visions
    by Douglas E Winter
    Science Fiction

    I brought this one by mistake – I thought that it was the new collection containing a new Stephen King short story set in the Dark Tower universe. It wasn't but it's still a nice "little" collection of horror stories. Dark Visions contains seven stories; three by Stephen King, three by Dan Simmons a...

    Red Moon
    by Benjamin Percy
    Fantasy

    Werewolves are often given second place to those pale undead that are now thankfully on the wane, where one wanes another waxes and perhaps 2013 will be year of the werewolf - it will if Red Moon has anything to do with it. The novel is set in an alternate world where werewolves are not only real bu...

    Mongrels
    by Stephen Graham Jones
    Horror

    Mongrels is a book that grips you by the jugular right from the start, a bit like the way a werewolf might. Funny enough that's what Mongrels is all about - a family of werewolves who are forced to travel around the USA avoiding the authorities and others who take a dislike their kind. It's a countr...

  • Lycanthropy and Other Chronic IllnessesKristen O'neal
    Fantasy

    Stories about monsters were told back in the day as a way of making people scared. And they should be. How do you stop a curious child from walking in the woods at night or going for a swim in a deep lagoon? You speak of vampires, werewolves and merfolk that are there to eat them. This may not be tr...

    Bleeding Hearts
    by Ry Herman
    Fantasy

    I have always wondered how people can believe in some things but not others. If you have a world that has vampires roaming at night, what makes bloodsuckers so great that they get to be the only things that bump in the night? Ry Herman already introduced us to the idea of vampires, witches and a gli...

    What Big Teeth
    by Rose Szabo
    Horror

    I do enjoy a good gothic novel. A tale about a once impressive house that has fallen into ruin, its location remote, its inhabitants an enigma. The tales are often full of thrills, romance and even a little horror. But what do you do about a gothic house full of horrific creatures? A story that tell...

    My Brothers Keeper
    by Tim Powers
    Horror

    The stories that the Brontë sisters wrote have an extreme gothic appeal and you only need to visit their old home in Haworth to know what inspired them. There did not seem much else to do than walk the moors and avoid dying. Whilst the town may be picturesque now, full of cobbled streets and Hovis a...

    When the Wolf Comes Home
    by Nat Cassidy
    Horror

    I have had my fill of Vampires. They are the Primadonna of the undead world hogging all the limelight with their films and TV shows. They are also all over books. One of my family member’s entire book collection is just vampires. What about the other supernatural beings? A vampire's erstwhile enemy...

  • The Grimoire Grammar School Parent Teacher AssociationCaitlin Rozakis

    I am not one to get involved with politics at school. I am one of those parents who chooses to be ambivalent to it all, probably to the annoyance of others. The problem is I can see the temptation to get involved in the drama, a small way to add a little spark to your life. I have enough spark in my...
