Grady Hendrix Knihy

Vo veľkopredajni nábytku Orsk v Clevelande sa dejú podivné veci. Zamestnanci každé ráno po príchode do práce nachádzajú polámané knihovničky Kjërring, črepy z pohárov Glans a rozbité skrine Liripip. Očividne sa tu deje niečo nekalé. Prísť záhade na koreň sa rozhodnú traja mladí zamestnanci, a tak sa dobrovoľne prihlásia na desaťhodinovú nočnú zmenu. Uprostred noci hliadkujú na prázdnej predajnej ploche, preskúmavajú podivuhodné tiene a zvuky a zažijú hrôzy, ktoré prekonajú ich najdivokejšie predstavy. Horrorstör je klasický duchársky príbeh zasadený do súčasného prostredia a zabalený do podoby maloobchodného katalógu, v ktorom autor nekladie medze svojej búrlivej fantázii a s primeranou dávkou irónie je odhodlaný čitateľa zaskočiť, no najmä dobre pobaviť.

Money, beauty, power, and love -- the youngest members of the Magnolia League have it all. Some may call them lucky, but the truth is they're charmed. Armed with spells, potions, and conjures from the powerful Buzzard family, the Magnolias have bought their luck...at a price. Ensconced in the League's headquarters on Habersham street, golden girl Hayes Anderson would never dream of leaving Savannah, where there's no problem that can't be solved with a cup of Swamp Brew tea. But when danger lurks and family secrets are unearthed, Hayes learns that magic can't fix everything. Across town at an old mansion on Forsyth Park, recent California transplant Alexandria Lee is on a quest to free her mother's spirit from a hoodoo spell. As dark magic sweeps through Savannah's historic squares and misty backwaters, will Hayes and Alex have the strength to save the people they love -- and themselves? Katie Crouch's second Magnolia League novel is a beguiling story about family, friendship, and the magical ties that bind.

From the New York Times best-selling author of The Southern Book Club s Guide to Slaying Vampires comes a hard-rocking, spine-tingling horror novel about a washed-up guitarist of a 90s heavy metal band who embarks on an epic road-trip across America and deep into the web of a sinister conspiracy.

In this Southern-flavored supernatural thriller set in the '90s, a women's book club must protect their suburban community from a mysterious and charming stranger who turns out to be a true monster. Patricia Campbell feels her life shrinking; her busy husband neglects her, her children are preoccupied with their own lives, and her senile mother-in-law requires constant attention. The only bright spot is her book club, a tight-knit group of Charleston women who bond over true crime and fiction, discussing everything from the Manson family to marriage and gossip. This routine is disrupted when Patricia meets James Harris, a handsome newcomer who moves in to care for his elderly aunt and joins the club. He captivates Patricia, stirring feelings she hasn't experienced in decades. However, his peculiarities raise red flags: he lacks a bank account, avoids daylight, and her mother-in-law claims to know him from her youth—impossible, given his age. As local children begin to vanish, Patricia and her fellow club members suspect that James is more dangerous than he appears. But their fears are dismissed by outsiders. Have they become too engrossed in their true crime tales, or have they unwittingly welcomed a real monster into their lives?

From the bestselling author known for blending horror and humor, this novella dives into the world of backyard rocket enthusiasts aiming for low Earth orbit. In Melville, South Carolina, a town struggling with financial despair, there are no astronauts left—only one stranded on the abandoned International Space Station after a failed mission. With NASA's budget slashed, the government turns a blind eye to this embarrassing situation, leaving the astronaut to face a grim fate. However, his cousin Walter Reddie, a disgraced former Shuttle Program member, refuses to let him die in space. Fueled by vodka and determination, Walter sets out to build a rocket himself. Defying laws, logic, and common sense, Walter attracts a motley crew of misfits—drifters, dreamers, science enthusiasts, and those disillusioned by the idea that space is only for the wealthy. Together, they transform Walter's rundown farm into a haven for aspiring astronauts. Yet, their journey is fraught with danger; they risk explosions, arrests, and chaos before they can even think about reaching orbit. Originally published in 2012 as Occupy Space, this revised edition includes a new introduction by the author.
