Book Description
The Hockomock is a swamp located in what is known as the Bridgewater Triangle in southeastern Massachusetts, an area of known paranormal activity. In the language of the Wampanoag nation, Hockomock translates to "the place where spirits dwell." A paranormal team hires a local guide, Tom Bradford, to take them into the swamp where they will create a documentary proving that the tales are real; spectral voices and orbs, apparitions known as Tei Pai Wanka's, and lastly, the mythical Pukwudgies of Wampanoag lore, known to beguile and lure the unsuspecting to their deaths. The team, encouraged by the orbs and spectral voices that they have already experienced on their trek inward, attempt the resurrection of the fabled Wampanoag death spirit, Hobbomock. When Tom Bradford returns after medically evacuating a psychic medium, Judy Brown, he finds all but one of the remaining team dead by decapitation. Randy Young, a videographer, is missing along with the heads of the three victims. With the resurgence of Hobbomock, violent crime and paranormal activity surges all over southeastern Massachusetts, and a serial axe murderer emerges in the nearby towns whose modus operandi matches the murders within the swamp. A task force is formed to solve the murders, which includes Tom Bradford and Judy Brown as consultants. Judy Brown, angry at the stubbornness of the police, resorts to channeling the dead wife of Detective Sergeant John Stroud to convince him of the necessity to believe in the paranormal and remove the evil of Hobbomock. And now Johnny Stroud, with Judy Brown, Tom Bradford, and an old Wampanoag shaman on one side, and the no-nonsense, logical minds of the task force team on the other, must find the balance between reality and the unexplained to stop the axe murders and halt the spread of Hobbomock's evil.

Book Description
A new omnibus collecting the first three volumes of the Vampire Hunter D horror novel series! It is 12,090 A.D., thousands of years since the human race nearly destroyed itself in a nuclear war--a folly foreseen by those who waited to emerge out of the underground...not from shelters, but from crypts! The aristocratic vampire lords known as the Nobles inherited our world, and with dark science and immortal patience made real the things that mortals had merely dreamed, whether voyaging to the distant stars, or conjuring monsters to roam the Earth. Yet the grand civilization of the Nobles has grown decadent, and as the terrorized remnants of humanity at last found the strength to rebel, their undying lords have been pushed back to the Frontier--the violent borderlands where humans still remain the prey of vampires, who for all their knowledge and power have never lost their obsession with our living flesh, blood...and souls! In this bizarre and deadly far future the most dangerous thing of all is not a vampire, but the one who hunts them--the one who is half them--a dhampir, the unearthly beautiful wanderer known as D. The Vampire Hunter D Omnibus collects the first three novels in author Hideyuki Kikuchi's adventure horror series: Vampire Hunter D, Raiser of Gales, and Demon Deathchase. Illustrated by Final Fantasy artist Yoshitaka Amano, this book is only the beginning of a legend!

The Name of War
Author: Jill Lepore
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0307488578
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
BANCROFF PRIZE WINNER • King Philip's War, the excruciating racial war—colonists against Indigenous peoples—that erupted in New England in 1675, was, in proportion to population, the bloodiest in American history. Some even argued that the massacres and outrages on both sides were too horrific to "deserve the name of a war." The war's brutality compelled the colonists to defend themselves against accusations that they had become savages. But Jill Lepore makes clear that it was after the war—and because of it—that the boundaries between cultures, hitherto blurred, turned into rigid ones. King Philip's War became one of the most written-about wars in our history, and Lepore argues that the words strengthened and hardened feelings that, in turn, strengthened and hardened the enmity between Indigenous peoples and Anglos. Telling the story of what may have been the bitterest of American conflicts, and its reverberations over the centuries, Lepore has enabled us to see how the ways in which we remember past events are as important in their effect on our history as were the events themselves.
