    Do you have digestion problems due to stress? Do you have problems with authority? How many alcoholic drinks do you consume in a week? Would you rather be a florist or a truck driver? These are some of the questions used to determine if you have what it takes to survive at South Pole Station, a place with an average temperature of -54 F and no sunlight for six months a year. Cooper Gosling has just answered five hundred of them, and her results indicate that she's abnormal enough for Polar life. Cooper's not so sure that's an achievement, but she's got nothing left to lose, so she decides to accept a one-year assignment to the National Science Foundation's Artists & Writers Program in Antarctica. There, she encounters the Polies, a group of misfits that only have in common their conviction that they don't belong anywhere else. But when a fringe scientist arrives-claiming that climate change is a hoax-his presence rattles the already imbalanced community, bringing them to the center of a global controversy an

    This line of work is slowly taking his humanity. And all that he holds dearest may be at a greater risk still. 
    Because a crueler evil waits in the wings. 
      
    Jonny and Hunters for Hire are quickly making a name for themselves in the monster-hunting world. 
    Life is good but all good things must come to an end. Frankie is about to get a call she feared was coming. This call alters the trajectory of her already tenuous relationship with Jonny. 
    In the meantime, the Court procures Hunters for Hire's services to investigate how the Sphere, the psychiatric hospital/prison for the supernatural, was infiltrated and who helped the lunatic Dr. Frankenstein escape. 
    Twenty thousand leagues under the sea, time is running out. Shannon Van Helsing's greatest fears are realized and the team must strike a deal with the devil himself, Rasputin, to return to their own realm. 
    If this wasn't enough, Jonny uncovers more secrets as to what being a hybrid means to him and a foreboding warning from an Archangel about a war not coming, but already here.

    Hell hath no fury . . . 
     
     
     
    Tarot reader Sara Wilde has spent her whole life finding the lost with the use of her trusty cards—from missing kids to shifty criminals to ancient, arcane artifacts. But when her newest assignment sends her straight to Hell, she discovers more than she bargained for. 
     
      
     
    The journey through Dante’s playground forces Sara to endure a client’s bitter loss, fall victim to a vicious betrayal by her own kind, and come face-to-face with the woman she might have been—a soul capable of heartless brutality. Not even Sara’s blossoming love for the darkly sensual Magician is safe in the underworld. She’s tested in ways she never fathomed, ways that could drive her mad or utterly destroy her. 
     
     
     
    But time waits for no artifact hunter. Back in Vegas, the war on magic takes a fatal turn, with the worst of the dark practitioners focusing on all Sara holds dear. If she doesn’t escape the bonds of the underworld, scores of psychics will die. To flee Hell for good, however, the final sacrifice Sara must make may be more than she can bear. 
     
      
     
    Nothing’s ever easy when you’re Wicked And Wilde.

    Honath and his fellow arch-doubters did not believe in the Giants, and for this they were cast into Hell. And when survival depended upon unwavering faith in their beliefs, they saw that there were Giants, after all....  The Thing in the Attic is a Science Fiction story by James Blish with a well developed story line and great characters that you find yourself pulling for as they struggle to understand and survive in 'hell'.  Do they have tails? yes they do.  Do they live in the treetops? you bet they do. Are they 'people'? Well, I will let you decide that.   The strange beings and environment that you expect from Blish are all here and they challenge you to adapt your thinking to keep up with the action.  And of course there is an ending that is definitely not expected.  Listen and enjoy this story of a strange world far in the future of the human race.   - Summary by Phil Chenevert
