Book Description
Welcome to the Deadworld! Before there was The Walking Dead, there was Deadworld. We find the aftermath of a supernatural holocaust where desperate humans are trapped in a world of the walking dead, intelligent zombies, and the living who will do anything to survive. The promise of Safe Haven reveals a much darker and sinister purpose, when victims find themselves in a medical faculty which will stop at nothing to combat the zombie plague. To the unfortunate, Safe Haven becomes known as the Slaughterhouse. THIS ISSUE: As the Slaughterhouse descends into its dark and feeble attempts to stave off the impending zombie holocaust, signs of rebellion break out amongst the victims. The realization that death awaits either from the scientists or the zombies, many decide they rather take their chance against the zombies. Of course, most of them have never faced the likes of King Zombie or Mosaic, the zombie that peels off living flesh in a vain attempt to capture life. How much hope can there be when either way you go, you're heading towards a slaughter? Note that although Slaughterhouse is meant to stand on is own, it follows "Deadworld: Requiem for the World" and precedes "Deadworld: War of the Dead" in the Deadworld rebooted series. "Deadworld is amongst the most essential horror titles of the last twenty years." - Peter Normanton, From the Tomb Magazine. "The best, in my humble opinion, of the zombie comics..." - Thomas E. Sniegoski, writer of Buffy Vampire Slayer and Batman. “Deadworld is a grand experiment and really has a special place in the history of horror comics." - Comic Book Therapy. “Merry mordant fun and well worth stalking…" - Now Read This! “Check out what is undeniably one of the best zombie comics series out there." - Horror News Network. A Caliber Comics release.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead
Author: Tom Stoppard
Publisher: Grove/Atlantic, Inc.
ISBN: 155584894X
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 134
Book Description
Acclaimed as a modern dramatic masterpiece, Rosencrantz & Guildenstern are Dead is the fabulously inventive tale of Hamlet as told from the worm’s-eve view of the bewildered Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, two minor characters in Shakespeare’s play. In Tom Stoppard’s best-known work, this Shakespearean Laurel and Hardy finally get a chance to take the lead role, but do so in a world where echoes of Waiting for Godot resound, where reality and illusion intermix, and where fate leads our two heroes to a tragic but inevitable end. Tom Stoppard was catapulted into the front ranks of modem playwrights overnight when Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead opened in London in 1967. Its subsequent run in New York brought it the same enthusiastic acclaim, and the play has since been performed numerous times in the major theatrical centers of the world. It has won top honors for play and playwright in a poll of London Theater critics, and in its printed form it was chosen one of the “Notable Books of 1967” by the American Library Association.

ISBN: 0525541357
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE "A brilliant literary murder mystery." —Chicago Tribune "Extraordinary. Tokarczuk's novel is funny, vivid, dangerous, and disturbing, and it raises some fierce questions about human behavior. My sincere admiration for her brilliant work." —Annie Proulx In a remote Polish village, Janina devotes the dark winter days to studying astrology, translating the poetry of William Blake, and taking care of the summer homes of wealthy Warsaw residents. Her reputation as a crank and a recluse is amplified by her not-so-secret preference for the company of animals over humans. Then a neighbor, Big Foot, turns up dead. Soon other bodies are discovered, in increasingly strange circumstances. As suspicions mount, Janina inserts herself into the investigation, certain that she knows whodunit. If only anyone would pay her mind . . . A deeply satisfying thriller cum fairy tale, Drive Your Plow over the Bones of the Dead is a provocative exploration of the murky borderland between sanity and madness, justice and tradition, autonomy and fate. Whom do we deem sane? it asks. Who is worthy of a voice?
